What is love for you ??? Sorry

[orlandom]

What is love for you ??? Sorry, I really won't be around soon. The fucking questions will end.

 

[Unicorns]

Something that never lasts.

 

[Tackingintothewind]

No worries about questions
Love for me is family and friends. Being there for one another when its needed

 

[Umbreon]

BABY DONT HURT ME, DONT HURT ME, NO MORE

 

[Symbiote]

Painful, confusing, uncertain.....

 

[Lmd]

Enjoy things as how they are without expecting anything from them.

 

[Neowise]

To me, love is something the others experience. Just like flying into space or being successful at life. The typical "other people" things.
I never really experienced love besides towards my cat that was put down in december. No clue what it is like between humans. No one ever loved me and I loved nobody.

 

[orlandom]

Just go fuck yourself. I will leave you soon. I love you all. Too drunk. Forgive me.

 

[Dolunay]

Love, hmm... for the lucky ones, it's a blessing. For people like us, a curse. Sometimes you're naive (and unlucky) enough to fall for a wrong person, and you screw up your whole life. You accept everything, abuse, lies, betrayals, etc, and in the end, when you inevitably get dumped, nothing matters anymore. You're empty.

That's what love is, in my opinion. A feeling powerful enough to fuck up your entire existence.

 

[Ame]

Not a panacea for all ills...or any ailment for that matter.

 

[sparkie]

Complicated and dangerous
The famous scientist George Price said love was purely another evolutionary technique for humans to pass on their genes- he committed suicide in 1975 in London

 

[GenesAndEnvironment]

It doesn't exist, and if it exists it should be avoided.

 

[Dr Iron Arc]

Although from my understanding I like to think that love is just a mutual understanding between two people. Love isn't taking two half-fulfilled people and making them whole. It's taking two fulfilled people and making them twice as whole together. Love is an experience, it's a conversation that goes on 24/7. It's other sappy garbage like that.

I don't believe love at first sight or that there is someone you're meant to be with. I think love is a combination of lust and compatibility.. then familiarity increases that feeling into love.

 

[LittleBabyNothing]

Love is beautiful. Love is unique. We all have our own misconceptions of what love is from fairytales, culture, how others choose to show theirs, our own experiences.
Love is an emotion, it's felt and experienced. It is fluid, never stable. We expect perfect love in abundance, love doesn't work like that.
Love is complex, painful, never enough. Love fluctuates, is never guaranteed to be forever.
When we can see love for all that it is, the good, the bad and the ugly... then we can embrace it with more passion and compassion. Maybe then the world will have less of the bullshit toxic love we've all experienced and leaves us bitter with poison continuing the cycle.

I don't believe love at first sight or that there is someone you're meant to be with. I think love is a combination of lust and compatibility.. then familiarity increases that feeling into love.

i think that's one of the most common forms of romantic love. But i think love can be found in many forms, love at first sight, souls mates etc... is real, possible for all but only happens for a few.

 

[naiad]

Love is a disease.

 

[gimme_my_happy_nap]

For me, it's a lot of work for a chance to get hurt.

 

[Mentalmick]

Love is what a dog feels for it's (good) owner.

 

[WaterHemlock]

Love is the only sane and satisfactory answer to the problem of human existence. That's a quote from Erich Fromm.
There's so many different kinds of love. His book The Art Of Loving is a good one and it made me think about love in a different way.
Its easy to think about love as something that will make me whole and worthy if someone else gives it rather than loving myself. But I'm also reminded of the story about the two groups of people in heaven and hell. They both have spoons for arms and can't eat. In hell they're starving and miserable. In heaven they're fat and happy because they use their spoon arms to feed each other.
That's what love means to me. I can't say I'm any good at actually practicing it, loving others or myself.

 

[ClairyFairy]

The unconditional way I fight for my children without even realising. The way my heart feels when kids or my niece or nephew or my mum does something for me because they want to not because they have to.

 

[Quinlor]

I don't know nobody said this to me in my entire life

 

[grungeCat]

What is love,
Baby don't hurt me,
Don't hurt me,
No more~

[EmbraceOfTheVoid]

I don't really believe in it outside of maybe your family and dog. Love in the world we live in comes off as conditional to me and requires you to have things like money, a career, your health, looks, etc. The disney version of love where you're appreciated for who you are is mostly a pipe dream I'd say. If you take a good look at this forum and the stories on here, you'll see people being easily abandoned because they are a inconvenience to others just for bringing up suicide much less any other kind of problem. Human beings are shitty and I'm not sure the world we live in actually allows for any pure form of love.

I honestly wish I was a dog because their love is unconditional.

 

[Celerity]

For me, it's a lot of work for a chance to get hurt.

That perfectly describes my opinion on it as well.

I suppose I can join that club as well.

 

[PapaSuicide]

Without love we would eat each other! For me love is the purpose of our existence, without it, it becomes meaningless.

 

[Latios]

Sorry, couldn't resist. :P

 

[WornOutLife]

A delusion because sooner or later, people get fed up with people and lose that "love magic".
Still, I want to experience it again because leaving the suffering aside, loving someone feels awesome lol.

I disagree i dont think lust has anything to do with love- lust is physical love is based in the mind but saying that alot of women misinterpret lust for love some women fall big time for a man who does it for them in the sack

 

[MindFrog]

Something that brings you comfort. I never really experienced that "deep love" that media talks about, but I'd I felt one in where I can be the real me.

.... Not that romantic now that I think about it.
