Um. I've never dated someone with the same name as a previous partner. I think it would be a little weird anyway. But I've known people with the same names and their personalities are usually reasonably similar. I've never had good relationships with "Kate"s that's for sure. I've only ever met one person with my name and she was nice, I think that names hold a lot of meaning.
To love is to suffer. To avoid suffering, one must not love; but then one suffers from not loving. Therefore, to love is to suffer, not to love is to suffer, to suffer is to suffer. To be happy is to love; to be happy then is to suffer, but suffering makes one unhappy; therefore to be unhappy one must love or love to suffer or suffer from too much happiness. I hope you're getting this down.
