googled for this synopsis:
A man, desperate to win the affection of a beautiful woman, slips her a love potion. He is overjoyed that the potion works so well...at first.
"All I want is my Leila's love" is a memorable quote from it.
Oh, and I'm talking the original series.

I think my SO would do it in a heartbeat. It would just give him another excuse as to why he never hears a word I say

Without my ear, there is no ear nibbling.... nothing kills the mood like going to give a lil bite and finding nothing there....
uh...
so I've heard....
and that is NOT the reason I'm looking to buy a Corvette!

No matter what one wishes to sacrifice, at some point your SO will leave. If your love for each other lasts your life time, death will take one of you before the other.
All relationships end. It is a sad thought indeed.
We need to know how to be alone. If more could master this, there would be much less strife in the world.
We need to know how to deal with grief. It is an inevitable occurrence for us all.

Sometimes I give my dogs pig's ears to snack on. I'm not sure how that relates to this thread though.

Stop looking for an excuse to cut yourself, blaze. Seek help instead.

From: Zuzi Martinez does cutting your ear off count as "out of character"? lol that's rather what I was thinking. and is the probability that I'll cut me ear off? is that not a sucker bet? or is it the probability that I'd be guaranteed my SO would stay with me and isn't it a little odd to offer a probability on a guaranty?

Fascinating!
There are certain things I wouldn't do for my SO.. like lie in a criminal court or hide any murdered bodies, but I think I could part with an ear.
I guess Van Gogh was crazy after all..
