Does love actually exist?

[Anonymous]

I'm 24 and I honestly feel like I'm gonna be lonely forever. I've had 2 relationships when I was younger and they never lasted long but I haven't had a proper relationships my whole life but yet I see people around me getting married, Having kids etc then there's me working 4/5 times a week with no love life...

It depends on how you define love, and I will use romantic love as the current topic.

I define intense romantic love as: finding someone that you want to wake up/fall asleep next to as many times as possible before you die.
I believe that this love has to be mutual to be love, so the other person has to feel the same way. Otherwise, this simply becomes obsession.
I believe that there is more to it, like respect of free will, helping them be their best, and having a wish to preserve their existence.

So for me, love is this social cognitive construct, and it is effected by many factors, including biological variables.

I do not want to continue expounding upon this concept, unless someone wants me to.

And yes, I do believe that this phenomena exists.

2 relationships is not a lot, I had around 10 and I found I loved the person in only 1 of them. Keep going, a lot of people on this planet. Go out more, festivals, cooking classes, painting classes, bars whatever. Just go out more and be friendly and chatty and eventually you will find more potential partners.

If you think you’re unlovable. You’re right. If you think you’re lovable you’re also right. Stop telling yourself stuff if you don’t want it to be true. If you believe it to be true. Then its true in your reality. Solution? Shape your reality by creating the person you want to be. You are not the best the way you are. If you ask yourself what flaws do I have and how can I do better? You will get an instant answer. Fix it. It is your fault. Take responsibility for your life. You do have control. Seize the moment and get after it.

Lol what do you think this is Disney? You think your princess is sleeping in a tower? Build yourself up and step up and talk to women. Love doesn’t just exist it’s created by getting to know someone. If you never build that relationship you’ll never be loved. You can’t be passive. You can’t need them either. There’s nothing special about women their animals just like you. Give them what they want and be there for them and we’ll frankly be better then their other options and they won’t leave.

My wife and I met while we were in highschool. We had many of the same friends and met by chance at a sporting event. We started dating 2 months later and the rest is history as they say. The caveat to this story is I was content doing my school work, working at my job and hanging out with friends. I wasn't looking to date but it happened. My wife was doing the same focused on school and friends.

you see it happen all around you, so sure it exist? :D.. does not come so easily to everyone, but you really still are young. If you want you probably can get there! You did even have some relationships before :).. what went wrong so it did not last long? maybe some things you can improve for the next.

If you are feeling lost in love maybe just ditch it go mgw or whatever its called. Build yourself up and become stable and happy/confident with yourself and then look for love

Love exists just most of us are so wounded from our past childhood or past lovers that we can’t love in a healthy way

Love doesn't start existing suddenly. It's created.
