Poll Results: What were you thinking?!

Alas, I've decided to end the long respite and start a blogging question once per week. Hence, our poll results are in for What was the dumbest thing you ever said?

This last love poll inquired: Have you ever regretted saying something stupid to that special someone? It could have been a first date, it could have been after years of involvement. Most of us have wished we were less free with our speech at times. When was yours?

Most of us out there confessed to there is something to be said about being too honest, resulting in some not-so-tasty feet for that candle-lit dinner. The majority, 41 percent (5 amour-osophers) admitted, "I made a mistake--I told the truth."

The second largest group made their voices heard (or not-so heard) by officially keeping mum on why they spoke those unretractable words. Three amour-osophers pleaded the fifth (35 percent).

Only two amour-osophers (16 percent)
admitted to tripping over their words by trying to impress someone, but doing quite the reverse.

A couple amour-osophers (16 percent) also admitted to saying something stupid in the heat of anger
, only to regret what they said once their tempers cooled.

Thanks to Kimchihead and Rybu for admitting some of their past mistakes for the sake of exploring the nature of true love. We amour-osophers out there wish you luck in your pursuits in finding and holding onto that special someone.

Vote Results: When did you realise it was over?

When did you know it was the beginning of the end? Was it like Seinfeld, and the refrigerator rocked a few times? Were you the last to know? Or did you end it on your terms?

When the fat lady sang. 0 votes (0 percent)

When you said it was over. 1 vote (20 percent)

When you got dumped. 1 vote (20 percent)

Gradually--then suddenly. 3 votes (60 percent)

What was the dumbest thing you ever said?

In my formative college years, I once attempted to compliment my boyfriend's . . . errr . . . prowess. (Back story: He was--shall we say--diminutive in a portion of his anatomy.) I told him he was quality over quantity.

Surprise, surprise. He wasn't flattered.
