Can you buy love?

[Summeroflove]

Men and some women to a extent believe that you can buy someone’s love. Then they act shocked when they get cheated on and/or dumped. If someone’s using you and aren’t genuinely attracted. Yeah 9/10 they’re gonna cheat. Obviously they have low integrity and character if they’re using someone in the first place.

That's why it's imperative to get all you can out of every situation... just because you're being used, it doesn't mean you leave bankrupt.. you can still gain experience and memories from those times... Noone knows the exchange rate and what's making it unless you're in the situation

[Summeroflove]

That’s the thing. That’s why men and women who have value…. They tend to learn through bad relationships they personally experience as well as witness others experimce.

They gain self respect. They prefer quality over quantity. They figure out what to look for and they don’t settle. They have standards and boundaries.

I don’t mean standards narcissists have…. That oddly they feel entitled to the people they want and get rejected by….

[Summeroflove]

People figure out when they’re being used. Being tested. Yada yada…. And learn to leave those relationships.

Some people though…. Fall into the same old traps over and over again.

[Little_Bumblebee]

No, not real love.

You can pay someone to do certain acts for you, and you can manipulate using your money, but you cannot buy real love.

[Summeroflove]

I agree…. I agree.

Hey there, love detective! 🎩 My aim here on Girls Ask Guys is to shed light on all things relationship-related, with a flirty sprinkle! Buying love is like buying a unicorn—it might look pretty, but it's not real. 💰 If someone is attracted only to your wallet, it's a red flag, not true love. Authentic love grows from connection, not cash. So, focus on emotional bonds, not just financial ones! Stay real, and the right one will stick around for all the right reasons! 😉❤️

Love is a choice, so effectively yes. With social media and dating being a thing for over 100 years in 90% of the world we are learning why the elite still practice arranged marriages and why the vast majority of religions condoned arranged marriages OR chastity and condemned prostitution, whore mongering, and adultery.

Today love is openly for sell and the prices range from dirt cheap to wildly expensive. The market is volatile…its complicated.

Love is work, not a fairy tale…well its a fairy tale in that it isn’t real as it is portrayed in fiction. Out ancestors know this and biology knows this.

You can’t buy it


But you can lease it


Financial security can trigger strong feelings of comfort and appreciation in a person
And that can translate to love


Basically the person being bought will say things like
“Oh I fell in love with his smile or his humor or his intellect”
And they’ll believe it wholeheartedly


But the reality is that money is a main factor in why they gave that person a chance to begin with an took the time to get to know them enough to fall in love.

[Purpleronnie]

I suppose you can buy things that sit ‘near’ love like comfort , security and time , dates , trips , shared experiences and the “illusion of affection “ but you can't buy genuine attraction or mutual choice or someone to stand by you when it seems the world is against you or staying when the wealth or financial reward is gone. .
If someone wouldn’t choose you without what you provide materially it’s NOT love , it’s just a subscription service with crap customer support 🤪

[DrmChsr]

Depends on what you mean by love. I don't believe you can just pay a woman and she'll fall in love with you. Rather money and gifts can make you seem more amazing to her, make her happier with you, consider a future with you etc. All of which would infleunce even the deepest forms of love.

[Summeroflove]

It can show investment. But if that’s all you are doing. That’s probably all she will want you for.

[DrmChsr]

I agree

[CherryLove007]

Love is a repeated action--- showing up for the whole human. Divine love cannot be bought.🍒

[Summeroflove]

Not genuine love. Love can be faked. Favors can be given…. But if it doesn’t come from the right place. It will all go away….

Either if the moneys gone or they find someone with more. Or on the second hand find someone they are genuinely into…. And it leads to cheating.

Let’s say a woman finds a man she feels attracted to. But he doesn’t have as much money. She may stay with the man giving her money while cheating behind his back.

[Summeroflove]

A lot of men who try to buy love act shocked when they are cheated on and dumped. Especially if she spends all his money and then leaves.

It’s a worse mess if kids and marriage is involved.

[CherryLove007]

@summeroflove ... And the moment something has a price, a condition, or a gatekeeper, it stops being divine (unconditional).

[Summeroflove]

I agree. Now to a extent….. I will say there has to be some conditions. Someone shouldn’t tolerate cheating or abuse or one sided relationships.

But besides that. People if they get married should honor their vows. For better or worse. Rich or poor. Sickness or in health….

[NathanDavis]

I can buy honey butter biscuits... I love those

[Summeroflove]

Lmao same here

[BADGER44]

NO. ABSOLUTELY NOT. YOU can't BUY LOVE. NOT EVEN WITH A PET. YOU HAVE TO EARN IT... AT LEAST A MAN can't. WOMEN I DONT KNOW MAYBE THEY CAN BUY LOVE... I COULDNT ANSWER FOR A WOMAN. WHO KNOWS WHAT THEY THINK...

[MikeMcMansion]

You can’t earn someone else’s choice to love you, anymore than you can buy their love with money that you earned. The other person must do something for you as well, by choosing to love you back for instance, if that takes money than so be it. Thats the arrangement.

It takes the other party to make the choice to let you love them and love you back and usually to the best they can in the agreed upon perimeters.

[RavVid]

No you can't buy love... but you can rent it.

[Keyboardkat]

If you have to buy it, it's not love. Then it's not you she loves, it's your money. And there are only so many gifts possible before the girl begins to feel saturated and looks for a REAL relationship with someone she can love for himself!

[Nemesis2k7]

Well, you can. Its called marriage: but its fake love. Watch her quickly lose “love” for you and deny sex and intimacy, whilst still wanting your time and money and attention

[DextroShade]

Money doesn't buy love but it's a good down payment.

[LiamJHayden]

You might be able to buy the illusion of love, but not the real thing.

[guesswhereivebeen]

You can… it’s at an all time low price these days also

[Anonymous]

Not exactly love, but maybe something close to love.

[exitseven]

You can put a down payment on it but you cannot buy it.

[queenofcardio]

It wouldn't be real

[Anonymous]

No, but you can rent it.

[Summeroflove]

For a time it will seem like love. Some people can fake it better then others. But it’s not genuine… eventually you’ll see their true colors.

They will either leave. Cheat. Maybe even become abusive later.

[TallLoney]

If you are rich enough, yes.

[Summeroflove]

Men with money get used cheated on and eventually dumped or divorced.

[MikeMcMansion]

Men with enough of it buy the world buddy. Love is a choice, paying rent isn’t

[AngryCarl2]

I can buy a dog. A dog will love me.

[Cidknee]

Let's say you can rent it for a while.

[Phoenix98]

Nope.

[Daytoday79]

I don't think so

[leva543]

You can't
