i love your answer ! (see what i did there? :)
regarding positivity: do you agree that non romantic love (things, family) is simply a qualifier that allows you to describe a case of 'like beyond what words can express'?
negativity: yes, pure instinct
I think there are different forms of love though. There's the obvious sexual form. There's a deep concern you (hopefully) feel for your family, friends, even pets. I think a deep sense of belonging to a place can be a form of love. Even a great passion for a certain activity. For me- it's simply about deep connection.
i like the bold parts !
Why @ksp ? Have you never had the feeling you might be in love?
i was in lust (many times) - pure instinct
I know I'm capable of love. I just haven't made the effort to find it. Plus, I don't want a broken heart- so it seems safer to stay single.
how do you define platonic love? (what's its purpose?)
yes, romantic love invariably brings heartbreak and suffering, throughout and after, unfortunately
better to be safe: better to not love - nothing to lose (including the perception of 'happiness', as opposed to 'better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all'
I get the impression you don't have much time for emotions? That they are irrational?
i've learned my lessons - not allowing my emotions to control me life (staying safe), and now observing that they are irrational…
Love can definitely be overwhelming and 'blinding'. In that way- it certainly screws with our rationality.
irrational :)
I agree- it likely is linked to our survival instinct. Reproduction and the successful rearing of young is the obvious one. I expect many parents would sacrifice their own lives to save their children because of that bond.
simple (species self-preservation) instinct - protect my genes, at all costs
For friendship- we are supposed to be social animals. It likely helps us to feel like we 'belong' to a pack and we can rely on one another. (Even though we might not be able to!)
i'm not affected by this, at all. i LOVE my isolation, and any real life interactions bother me - i like my solitude
also, i like to be independent - i don't want to depend on anyone
I suppose- even a connection we feel towards an activity or a place isn't necessarily unhealthy. They are generally places or things we feel safe and relaxed around.
i like this
In that way- love is logical also (from a pro-life point of view.) It steers us towards successfully raising young, it creates social ties within a group and it keeps us in areas we feel safe.
simple survival instinct - protect my genes, at all costs; the more protection, the better
I get the impression you are on a mission to destroy all that is pro-life (because you see it as illogical?) Love should definitely be on your list then... 
.
simple life-long observations (and a long life, too…)
I'm guessing your motivation is- 'proving' that all the things people may want to hang on to life for are in fact all lies/delussions?
exactly (for myself - others should think independently)
Again though- this will hinge on people's experiences. People who have never had that connection may agree. People who have been badly let down may also. For everyone else though- you're unlikely to convince them. Plus, bear in mind- some people love others SO much that they will in fact support them in their request for assisted suicide. Now- that's REAL love in my book.
i like how open minded you are - you can be very analytical and objective
