do u agree with it?

i mean how could you kill someone if he/she loves ur lover or torture prisoner of war?

shouldnt there be a limit line?

how can a reasonable and logical person say yes to it?

hmm"Everthing's Fair in Love and war!"I loved using that line once, but logically it makes no sence if you think about it, what ever wars countries have been through were they right for innocent people living in that country???...When some one is in love but it's only one sided it that right?Dosnt that person's heart ache when the person they love doesn't love them back.... Its a simple explination!

Whenever someone uses the line "everything is fair in love and war" is using it for their own personal selfish reasons, because nothing is fair in hurting someone you love and killing someone for political gains.

This is line is more of quote or sayin, to give ppl a justification for their actions but logically it has no reason behind it. I mean, wud a judge of court except that line if u say it aft muderin sum1? No! Everythin in the world has a limit n so does war, n love. Otherwise there would be no world bec every1 wud be killin each other as in every situation dere is either love or war.

no completely disagree---- big time- well i think there should be limits to everything in life.

well as for war--- plz only defend yourself instead to trying to run and stir up the hatred in it-- and if you refuse to attr=ack surely there would be no war--- but yeah dont let yorself be killed easily.

well love-- yaar this topic is too touchy. i think love is unexplainable thing--- hehe 😳 so if you think you are in love plzzz do consider whether it is temporary love or is it long lasting.

wassay i have fallen in love with famous faces-- mind you if i knew these people in person i would probably really hate them.

so love i think you need to know more about love for people than just their bhotee...

wel then again there is love for your parents but thats different.

fair and unfair are relative terms.
everything is fair in love and war is a one-sided statement. The same thing is obviously unfair to the other. If it were fair for all, it need not have to be said 😆 .

I think in case of love it is used to mean little underhanded practices that people sometimes use to beat their competitor. Nothing wrong in that. If someone is murdering another person and saying that it was for love then it's more of an obsession than love.

As for war I feel nothing can be termed as fair or unfair. Rules of war keep on changing. In Mahabharata rules of war was not to hit your opponent with a club below the waist, Bhima changed that. For the ancient Indians rules of war was to fight from sunrise to sunset, Muslims changed that. Later war meant a fight between two armies without involving civilians, World Wars changed that. Nowadays war means linking some country with WMDs or Terrorists and sending it back to Stone Age. At the end of the day what matters is who survived and won. When both the parties are equally matched what will decide who emerges victorious, obviously the one who can cheat better without getting caught.
