What is this thing you call love?
What's love got to do with it?
Who needs love when you have waffles?
Whoa, they're bisexual! I didn't know that!
Will you go out with me to the End?
Wishfully thinking
Wishing you were here
With my own personal Jesus -- someone to hear my prayers, someone who cares
With my statistically significant other
Writing a love letter
Yes, I'm alone, but I'm alone and free
Yes, we're lovers, and that is that
You can be my wingman any time
You cannot grasp the true form
You know I want to but I'm in too deep
You spin me right round, baby
You're a beautiful woman, probably
YOU'RE TEARING ME APART LISA
You're the prettiest girl this side of the Mississippi
[TOP SECRET]


    Original OP 
Well, ok, I did set mine.

I'm not pining! I'm passed on! This Rotpar is no more! I have ceased to be! I've expired and gone to meet my maker! I'm a stiff! Bereft of life, I rest in peace! If you hadn't nailed me to the perch I'd be pushing up the daisies! My metabolic processes are now history! I'm off the twig! I've kicked the bucket, I've shuffled off the mortal coil, run down the curtain and joined the bleeding choir invisible!! THIS IS AN EX-ROTPAR!!

Seriously, guys, brilliant little Valentine's Day thing.

There should totally be a Queen one. Maybe a line from Love Of My Life, or perhaps the more famous Killer Queen? That would be more amusing, at the very least.

EDIT: You know what, my friend suggested one that's amazing: "I'm in love with my car" ...which is already one of them. In that case, I'm still rooting for something from Killer Queen!

"'Let them eat cake, ' she says, just like Marie-Antoinette"?
That could pretty well work, but you know, I just came up with a Queen one that works a lot better:

"God knows, god knows I want to break free..."

Translation of quote from Israel's national poet:

They say there is love in the world, what is this love?
Which, of course, sounds better in Hebrew.

Since there isn't really a dedicated person or staff member to curate this list or add things to it (or so it seems—I know the mods were doing it earlier, but, for obvious reasons, this thread seems really low on their priorities now), maybe we can make a position for that? If someone were to volunteer to be the Relationship Status Curator, would we be able to implement that? I'd even volunteer for the position if we can so I can save everyone else the headaches of dealing with the list.
