All Comments on 'Stupid Cupid'

but if kinda feels unfinished as if there could be a sequel or sequels ;)

Your story was an ode to love , in all it's glory.

Thank you

Beautiful

it feels unfinished....there is always more to love

Great story- I have to tell you the title put me off,i expected some kind of a shallow lemonade,but you made it all believable- the hunt,the seduction,good times and bad,it was perfect.

Also,i know its not the center of the story,but i found the underlying melancholy and dulled- but still present mourning of the remaining gods for what was lost to be a great touch. And Ares is just hilarious :)

Hats off to you,miss!

That was beautiful. I cried for them.

Wow this story is really something! I love every bit of it! Great job :D

I have been reading stories on this site for years!!!! I have NEVER commented on one until now. This was absolutely amazing!!!!!!

This was really great, maybe it could do with some minor editing, but the story itself was flawless :-)

Happy Valentine

This was an amazing story! A couple of minor mistakes here and there, but the storyline is completely perfect. Thank you for an wonderful read! Happy Valentine's Day

Wow, you should seriously consider trying to turn this into a novella. Had this been on amazon ebooks or something I would totally have bought it. There is a richness here that you could use for several more story lines. You have great talent.

I wasn't expecting that this story would move me to tears, but it did. The good kind. Thank you.

This was the most beautiful story I have ever heard. Thank you so much for sharing it with us all and I would like to compliment you on your amazing creative writing abilities you are wonderful.

Really great story, thank you!

THAT was the most amazingly beautiful torture I have ever forced myself to endure! I say this as I grin like a fool and wipe tears from my eyes. You captured the emotions of love, dispair, and joy and brought them to life with your cleverly crafted words. I laughed, cried, and raged at every turn. THANK YOU!!!! Thank you for such a wonbderfuly executed story!

Just wow! Thanks.

I truly found your work with the Greek mythos very inspiring and well thought out. In its own way it spoke to me of there being someone even when they dont know it. Keep up the excellent work!

This love story was so amazing. The characters were truly inspiring. True love is so hard to find and self sacrifice non existent. I couldn't stop reading. I even felt sorry for the empty shell of Eros' wife. Wow just incredible!

innovative.

The story is well written and entrapping. Its pure romance and it makes d sex scenes so much better. I want an Eros in my life nw

I don't care what anyone else says

This story wins

I just wanted to thank everyone for their kind, beautiful comments. I am honored by the amount of support I received. Thank you, you have made my Valentine's Day unforgettable.

-Sincerely,

stubborn_dreamer

Totally blown away by your story, thank you for sharing it with the world!

What a beautifully crafted story! I was emotionally blown away; did not expect my heart strings to be tugged when I was just dropping by for something naughty. I totally cried haha. Thank you love, for the beautiful story that made my bittersweet Valentine's week feel a little better. Xxox

Thank you for this story and happy valentines day!

I could not stop reading. Thank you for crafting such a beautiful story.

Awesome story. Wasn't expecting this. Thank you for putting this up. I hope you win!

A true epic of the romance genre. Wonderful characters people can care about, a deep back story waiting to be explored by fans, a heartfelt lesson for everyone, and most of all, a perfect ending. I contend that a good polish job would get this ready for sale and make it a huge success. Let me know if I could be of any assistance if you decide to do so. I'll even do it for free, given the talent this was written with. This story has actually inspired me to return to my writing roots. I am proud to have read it, and thank you for writing it.

I hate Eros. I loved the story up until he betrayed her. I just can't forgive him. I so wanted for him to suffer more. Ughhhh I hate him.

This story clearly deserves 1st Place. I laughed till I cried and laughed some more. "Bitchess in my dreamss..... Nosey Bitches" - Selene

Congratulations on winning the contest. This was a good story with enough depth to make it worth reading to the end. The only downside was the number of grammar mistakes. I found them annoying and distracting. The improper pronouns break the flow of the prose and causes the reader, or maybe just me, to pause and reread the passage. You are a good story teller but need to use an editor (human) to deliver a finished product. I intend to read more of your stories.

It was only because it was the winner that I decided to look at it.

Halfway down the first page I decided it really wasn't my kind of thing but I decided to read just a little bit more.

I'm so glad I did as it was almost two hours later when I finished it and immediately wished there were another dozen or so pages at least.

A really good story using characters with character and a great storyline that flowed so well I lost track of time.

I 'll keep a note of your name 'stubborn_dreamer' to see what other gems you come up with.

Wow. I often have fallen in love with great stories I've read, on Literotica. They haven't been perfect, and don't have to be. I tried to read this story, but the errors were just too glaring! The potential for falling in love with your story was marred by muddy writing, grammatical cystic acne, and syntactical obesity. I hope that winning the first prize doesn't go to your head so that you believe you can submit something again given such poor flow and myriad basic errors, and expect similar success. You do yourself such a disservice by submitting it and winning, not only to yourself but to others who win in future. Is winning all that matters? Your stories are at stake here! Your reputation as an artist and author is at stake, too. Consider, as you read this, whether I care too much about grammar, syntax, spelling, the meaningful flow that goes with crafting sentences carefully.... Reading this was like trying to listen to music played by a virtuoso musician who has to use a faulty score at performance time! It was like trying to enjoy a fine painting that has splotches of mud on it. What a shame. If perhaps you were running close to deadline on this, and decided to send it in as is because you didn't have time to get it edited, then perhaps next time you should re-think this kind of decision. Consider how fine your work would have been, had you waited until next year when the contest would be happening again; by then, you'd have had plenty of time to get it edited by not just one but perhaps even several, good editors! If you have the audacity to believe that you didn't need to have it edited, or had some fear that an editor would mess up your work, trash those thoughts immediately, and get beyond these unreasonable fears before you submit another story. Clean up your act, don't rest on possibly undeserved laurels! Know your limitations!! Submitting this story in its current form, despite winning the prize, was not a smart move, Cupid.

Wall of text complaints and trying to be clever while doing it...

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

Someone is jealous.

I am with stubborn_dreamer. And I have not read the story. Congratulations, sd. :)

I loved reading this story. The storyline was good, the characters had depth and the greek mythology added in the mix was glorious (love greek mythology). You might want to work on some errors, I had to reread some lines at times to understand what was going on or what had happened. It was great though, just work on that.

Great job! You deserved to win! Excellent story!! Although the dirty bird in me wanted more graphic sex, yet the emotions that the characters felt, were so realistic it made up for the lack of graphics. I actually cried when he chose Psyche over Selene. Well done!!

Okay, so there was some grammar issues, but the story was absolutely fantastic. Better than 50 Shades of Grey. I would love to see you clean this up and submit it as an e-Book on Amazon. I'll write the first reccommendation!

I barely ever cry when I'm reading, but the emotions in this hit me like a ton of bricks. I came to the site looking for a quick naughty read, I didn't expect to find a love story! You need to keep writing. Without a doubt if I saw a book that said 'by the author of Stupid Cupid' (since I don't know your name) I would get it. I haven't read any of the other VD entries, but I have no doubts you deserved to win.

Absolutely fucking breathtaking. I cried and laughed, was filled with so much frustration that I cried some more. Beautiful job well done xx

This story is brilliant. Sexy, fun, and fulfilling.

As good as money! Brilliant! Brought a tear to my eye.... Couldn't stop, now I'm late... Thanks

It needs editing, that's for sure, but the creativity overcame that. I hope that you can find a decent editor and will keep learning the craft.

I can sense where all that emotion is coming from stubborn_dreamer. Really creative thinking

-J

Great story i thought Selene was gonna get shot by Eros with the white arrow

I was so drawn into your story my fiance tells me that its her or Selene. We're negotiating. Now don't you feel a little guilty? I'm never giving anyone roses again, they hurt to much when you get slapped across the face. Don't your dare quit writing.

I finally got her to reading after page three I had to finish this t the campus library.

Delightful story and well done.

I have to say it was well written and I wanted to read it to the end!

I like that she fought it, and was a strong woman rather than just "OH MY A MAN!" *faint* lol.

This was an amazing story. I could not "put it don" so to speak. I loved this story of how love comes to be and how it is to be in love. I hope you write more stories involving these two.

I would suggest you find an editor though ^_^. Some points the story suddenly changes direction and it was hard to follow till I re-read it once or twice. Also at some points a paragraph is split into parts and pieces. This was also annoying but I managed to work around it.

Wonderful story SD. I hope to see more. 5 stars and Fav.

Really enjoyed the story for its humour and very well written

This is pure genius. Great work.

I enjoyed this story very much. Keep up the great work my friend.

beautifully written.

Fantastic story!!!!

Just my opinion...i would love to see more to this :) sooo need to see how things happen if selene goes and lives on Olympus if they have babies the whole deal :) LOVE IT

I came with the intention to read a completely different kind of story in this category but came upon yours (I had no idea you entered this into a contest, but good for you that you have won, as I see in the comments!).

I adored this story and I'm so glad I had the privilege of reading it. It had me laughing out loud, while in other areas gave me a lump in my throat and took most I had in me to hold back the tears. The emotion I felt reading this story was unlike anything else I've read here, and something I would expect from an established book.

I urge you to continue writing, expand the story, needless to say - find an editor, and put out an e-book or something. And at the very least, just keep writing these! I could read about these two (or most anyone from this story) all day long.

Suffice it to say, no previous stories have sparked something inside of me to comment on them.

Good job, and you have a new fan.

My Dear Author.. Word is not enough .. You story make me happy, laughed , sad or

upset but at end it's a very beautiful story .

But that is not a bad thing. Nice story.

You may have just changed my life, in a way, with this story. I feel connected with so many of its parts to the message. With so much disparity within any emotion's interpersonal definition, the clarity and vision you write with offer kindness in relief. Thank you.

This is absolutely, wihtout a doubt one of the best things I have ever read in my life- and I read A LOT! My heart won't stop racing and I'm slightly afraid for my life. That's how much I loved your story. Everything was so painful and eloquent and true. And I feel like a total fangirl for this entirely creeptastic comment, but I thought you should know... So, this is the start of my stubborn_dreamer obsession. Thanks for the theatrics.

Like most, I didn't really come here for an emotional and thought-provoking story. Nevertheless that's what happened.

Have you ever considered taking something like this to bookshelves? I think you could definitely sell a story like this. The little details were what catapulted it from 'cute' to 'lovely' and I'd love to read more.

Charming story; very unusual and perfect for Valentine's Day. Just one tiny quibble: on page 7, Selene remarks "White is the absence of color." Actually, black is the absence of color, while white is the union of all colors.

That wa the sweetest story I felt the story it made me cry when they parted and I felt joy when they were back together you should find a way to get thi story published you are a fantastic author and I truly enjoyed the story I envy their love

ejrhlwekjrlwekjrlwekjrwelkjwelkrj THIS WAS SO AMAZING I FELT THINGS THAT I WAS NOT EXPECTING TO FEEL SEEING AS HOW I CAME ON THIS SITE LOOKING FOR PORN YOU TOTALLY DESERVED TO WIN THE VALENTINE'S DAY CONTEST YOU DESERVE ALL THE AWARDS. YOUR WRITING STYLE IS SO PERFECT AND EVERYTHING ABOUT THIS WAS SO PERFECT THANK YOU FOR BLESSING THE WORLD WITH THE EXISTENCE OF THIS STORY I AM FOREVER INDEBTED TO YOU FOR THIS <3<3<3 - Primadonny

Page 10. Cried. Oh my gosh. I was totally looking for a quick sexy read, but omg. This. I love it. It's so heartfelt. I was crying my eyes out. Currently, I'm horny and emotional. I don't even know whether it's a good thing or not. But this is good. This is really really really good.

Congrats on the win, you totally deserved it. A thousand times over.

...Ah fuck.

Yep, I cried.

This is the best, most beautiful, touching story I've ever read!!!!!

ahoireutoingjehfp98sHE"rfhn;Ehf'oEfhjuzhnrfi;jhn.

It's just one of those stories on here that just really make you feel something amazing. ahhhhh!

Damn, just, DAMN.

Knew what was gonna happen.

Still cried.

i don't know how many times I've read this but it makes me cry every time

This was amazing!!! I loved it!!!

You had me in tears ....with this shamefully beautiful story

That was really great, this is only the second time I have ever left a comment on this site, but yeah that was a really well grounded story. Thanks, I really enjoyed it.

I've read this story like 3 times and it never fails to make me cry then leave me feeling all warm and fuzzy on the inside.Your really and amazing writing now I'm just gonna sit here waiting on my magical whirlwind romance with someone akin to a Greek god <3.

Amazing. This is beautiful

I always get that stomach-flutter. No other stories give me that.

I wish that my husband had these deep of feelings for me this story shows. This story is so beautifully written that I found myself bawling at the end and feeling just a bit jealous.

I thought she was unnecessarily cruel , i hoped she would have taken the arrow at the end, how did she become immortal?

this story is perfect 10/10

Should have taken an arrow to the knee.

An incredibly well written story that got me hooked from the clever title

Well written, witty, good character development, fun story.

This story should be in Romance. Truly a beautiful story. Thank you for sharing your talent.

Great story. Made me cry.

This was a wonderful read in 2013 that the feel of the story stayed with me until now. Nicely done with wonderful quotes and funny characters.

So lovely!

That it had probably spread and the odds of surviving weren't in my favor.

Inexplicably, my lady friend stuck by me while i was in and out of the teaching hospital cancer ward enduring harsh experimental surgeries and chemo. They made several serious mistakes and did a lot of extra damage. Meanwhile, the place i lived in and loved slowly fell into the ocean. Other serious complications followed for years on end.

Despite all that, she is still with me somehow.

We are both stubborn dreamers..Still and all, Valentine's day is not my favorite date.

Every so often, I come back to this story. It’s actually the story that made me get an account for this website. You are a phenomenal writer and thank you for sharing your gift with us.

It’s a lovely story, thank you creating and sharing it
