Something which complete assholes and bitches say to condone their douchebaggery behaviour. They have no problem resorting to devious tactics to get what they want, even if what they do harms other people . The same people are likely to also use the phrase 'it's a dog eat dog world'. They believe that behaviour which is deceitful or not fair is acceptable during an argument or competition. They must win at any cost.
In order to go on a date with me, I'll trick her into believing that her boyfriend is seeing another woman.
Did you tell her lies about her boyfriend so she would hate him and go out with you instead?
Of course! All is fair in love and war.

This very popular saying is unfortunately wrongly taught and so it continues to get passed down with a mistaken explanation. The mistaken explanation is that 'love' and 'war' are two equal things that anything can be done during and it not be considered wrong. THAT IS A FALSE DEFINITION. But understandably so,with how the quote is phrased-its very easy to see how it's been misunderstood.THIS IS THE REAL DEFINITION....'All is fair in love and war' actually means this.... During war, two people who are romntically involved go through many ups and downs. It's a terrible heartbreaking experience for both. It's an emotional rollercoaster filled with sadness,pain,anger and both stress and distress. So during this time if one or both parties decide to have an affair whether it be ongoing or just once....this is considered "fair"....because during this time of extreme pain-the distance and time apart can be almost unbearable and the need for human contact and the desire for human touch is something that everyone involved feels can be overlooked if it happens only during this time of war. The danger involved during war is so scary and brings so many emotions out that it's human narure to need someone else to "lean" on and that often leads to more. So "All is fair in love and war" actually means that an affair during combat can be overlooked and is considered both fair and forgiveable.
She longed for her husband and feared for his life. She spent the night with another man to comfort her, and kept repeating to herself...'all is fair in love and war'.

The best romcom that has come out in a while. Includes the dreamy Peter K who falls and love with Lara Jean (who was never second best). You'll fall in love with the movie and all of it's actors especially when Peter puts his hand in LJ's pocket and spins her around. To all the boys is MUCH better than the kissing booth. If you haven't read the books then you're really miss out because they are so much better than the movie (even though the movie was AMAZING).
"Have you seen to all the boys i've loved before? Well you could really say that Peter K took her to the ski lodge and freaked it."
