The Principles of LIAC
Someone apparently asked one of our contributors the other day whether he would continue to post if he met a girl. All the more reason to post, if you ask me. But the point is, the initial perception of Love Is A Cunt is often incorrect. People think we're here to slate love, to say that we'll never fall in love again, that we abhor the very existence of love itself...
Wrong.
We're not here to say that love should be wiped from the face of the earth, only to acknowledge that love is a cunt, yet prove that it can be survived and that we have lived to tell the tale. I, for one, am currently in love (yes, woe betide me). It won't stop me airing my dirty linen on LIAC. All the more reason.
We write to experience life twice... we learn by our past mistakes, and wallow in our historic misery. Bring it on, I say. Masochistic? Perhaps. But satisfying.

NO.
YOU write to address situations that you have experienced and wish to bitch about. Perhaps you wish to present some sort of borderline-patriotic-we-can-get-through-this crap, but I don't.
In other words, your principles are far from mine, so please don't speak on behalf of ME.
I'm waiting for the first post you write about this guy you're in love with. The clock is always ticking...
I write on behalf of nobody but myself, thanks very much!
I'm finding it harder and harder to write about my relationship, but as I've recently been slighted by the one I love, I'm thinking that my Cuntish fuel will create a writing fire very soon.
(God, could that sound any more gay?)
