Are you kidding me? Love is glorious! Of coarse it's real- what would we be without it.
Sure, you could make the argument that humans only think they're in love because they want to be and that it's mainly lust and not real value for the other person's being, but I think that's selling it short.
I want true love, my true love, and thus, I will not settle for less. Sure, it'll be a lot of hit and miss to find him, but if I search for him, surely I'll find him.
You can think you will find love but you really should not you will only get hurt believing in love.
So you're encouraging me to settle for less? It's love- it's not pretty or sunshine all the time, but it's rapturous and captivating. There are worse things than getting hurt- like forgoing love because of fear and cowardice.
I pretty much gave up on love already I know I will be single forever anyways so what's the point.
Well, if you're committed to your loveless state for the rest of your life, then stop bumming out other people. Sure, it's a difference fo opinion, but it seems ot me like you're ragging on love because you want it and don't have it. The trials of have and have-not. Nothing's worse than apathy.
I know there is no such thing as love though, I mean I have felt like I was in love so many times but it was not love.
Then after your recovery time, put yoursefl out there again and go find your true love. Yeah, it's hard, yeah it bites sometimes, but you can't tell me that having your true love wouldn't be woth all of the effort it would take to find them. All of that love in exchange for some tough tribulations? I'll take that deal any day.
I have just been hurt so many times that I really have no reason to believe.
Well then, I can't help you. Either get professional help or suck it up and stop being a pansy. If you don't want love, then you won't find it. Either way, no one wants a whinny annoyance.
Well I don't know what to do but just don't get hurt.
I am sorry but how can you say you will only get hurt believing in love. Exactly how old are you hy the way.
I am 19 and it just seems like every girl I have ever liked has not shared any feelings with me. I really am believe love is not really and the only thing that ever happens if lust there is not love.
oh it exists, you just don't have the kind of love you're looking for, therefore you think it doesn't exist... there's actually many different types of love
romantic love is just one of those ones, that a lot of people struggle with
my best friend thought he was "in love" at the age of 17, only to find out she would cheat on him, breaking up 2 years later...
doesnt mean love doesn't exist, just means you gotta find it, in a true meaning, of every sense of the word
just live. :)
i'm a bio nerd, I know all about love & lust & the scientific explanations. it's not very romantic. you have to feel it yourself. it's not something that can be explained. anyway, going "searching" for love is desperate and unattractive.
Ive been in a relationship for almost two years and I can say that I truly do love him. We do find each other sexually attractive and are sexually active but what couple isnt? Lust is part of love but is kind of a bonus. If youve been hurt and are scared that you won't find anybody then don't worry because there's someone out there for everyone just get some confidence about you and go out more and youl meet someone :)
Those people aren't naive-ive never had a boyfriend but I really believe that love is real. You can't have two people be together for tens of years and say there is no love there. What about the love people feel for their children, what about the love for your parents. You can't say that doesn't exist. I think the people that find true love are very lucky because its the most special thing in the world.
love is very real just its not a fairytale like we think its hard work at times your going to want to kill each other have arguments and not get on but its still love
lust is just attraction love is much more than that its loving that person inside and out
Love is not merely a biological response, sorry to say. There are pheromones involved in that initial attraction and "getting together" phase, but you stay together because there is an attachment. Love is what is left after the lust wears off, personally.
You care for your parents, right? Well, that's love. If you can feel it for them, you can feel it for a significant other. Just in a different way.
And humans aren't the only animals that show the attraction either.
Just because love isn't real for you, doesn't mean it doesn't exist. It is real for some people. You just haven't found the right person, or you don't care too because you think you will just lust for her anyways.
The truth is I want to experience love what ever that is. But no girl would ever be interested in me because I am not very good looking and that is all girls care about looks. There is no girl for me I already can tell that. I already gave up on "love" it just is not real. If you think about it honestly you will see that too.
Sorry to be rude but the is the dumbest thing I have ever heard. Girls don't care only about looks, at least the ones who are worth falling in love with don't. I could care less what a guy looks like, both people I have been in love with aren't the most attractive but to me they are because I love them. You are just finding the wrong girls. And if you can't find one that likes you for you then maybe it is you who is too into the looks.
I don't care about looks though, girls just don't like me. I am a very shy guy and all I want is someone to like me but it does not seem possible. I am a nice guy and all. Just trust me love is not real, I know I am lonely and all but it really won't matter if I have a relationship because the girl would not love me anyways.
I think you're being ridiculous. But even if you are right that nobody would ever love you, that doesn't mean love doesn't exist. Just because it doesn't exist for you doesn't mean it doesn't exist. That's like a homeless man saying people are naive for believing in a roof over there head when it just doesn't exist, it does exist, just not for him.
I probably am but the thing is I have never felt accepted girl don't even give me a chance.
Well you are trying with the wrong girl then. I am not saying it will be easy but someone out there will like you for you.
Because it's in da rule book. You must believe in love. You must believe in god. You must want all the same things that everyone else wants. You must eat all your vegetables, peas and Brussels sprouts included. If you don't follow these simple rules then clearly there is something wrong with you, or perhaps you just haven't met the right girl yet, but when you do you'll love each other-- I know it! It's in Da Rules...
love is VERY real. I love my parents and they LOVE me and they would even give their life for me. Tell me that's not LOVE! I think you are barking up the wrong tree or need to look up the definition of it again.
love is real. its every where but you haven't found the right person. once you see your "soulmate" you will know her. you guys will feel a click. and then you can experience love. it is out there but you have to find it.
I am a butt ugly guy, but I think I have experienced love, or something close, I barely knew a girl but once we started talking I had a feeling unlike lust or friendship, and the feeling was mutual, which I am happy about!
...maybe love doesn't exist for you yet. it doesn't mean it's not real for everyone else though.
Trust we love is not real don't get yourself hurt believing in love because it is not real.
You just said yourself that you've never had a girlfriend. so how the hell would you know. do you think molecules don't exist just because you can't see them? do you say indonesia isn't real because you haven't been there? if you haven't experienced love, then you don't know what it is and you have no right to deny its existence.
You wouldn't under stand if every hated you as they hate me you would realize love was not real. I am a nice guy but people just hate me. I am so lonely trust me I know love is not real.
Then the only thing that could possibly prove is that love doesn't exist for YOU, it says nothing about everyone else. and you can be a nice guy, but have a really sucky attitude about life which makes people not enjoy your company. your looks might be a hindrance, but it's not the cause of all your problems.
People don't dislike or hate because of the way someone looks. you have to make them hate you. unattractive hate. I don't think people hate you as much as you say unless you're a bitter ass hole. but if you're as nice as you claim, and you hate yourself, you would definitely THINK that people despise you.
cuz it is
i mean don't you love ur parents
or a dog
or even a type of food lols
etc :]
and there is you just have to work hard at it :]
and you don't have to b acttractive to get a girlfriend
its all about attitude :]
and lust is okay lols
I don't think comparing love of food and animals rele compares here but w/e
pity party. STOP! love is real. don't pretend that its not and mope around thinking 'poor me...' real love is worth the work. but you won't find it with that attitude...
Love is definitely real. It just takes a lot more work than most people are willing to put forth. For those who do go through with it, the rewards are forever.
Love is real but it doesn't last most of the time because the couple doesn't try or loses the desire to make it work, love is hard you have to work to keep that spark.
most people experiance lust..i htink love is real...but VERY hard to achive...and you must know the person inside and out...this you can really love them...not this 1 month HS sh*t...
Love is real my friend. you can't tell it unless you are in love. even I belived it ws a joke . but I'll tell you once you are in love. its the best thing that will ever happen to you.
Im with you on this, I'm personally not bitter or anything, But I think the idea of love is like moulded into our brains, And so we just accept it.
