Do you believe in love?

Yuu wrote

Yes I do, as I myself has been in love with someone for over 5 years. It's weird how that happend, but I've tried to supress those feelings, because I know it's never going to happen anyway. It was a long time ago, and now we haven't talked or seen each other for years.

However like Senpai I am optimistic that I will find someone one day whom I may have a chance to be with one day.

How can there be love in 5 years? Image no longer available

i've kinda been through a bit in relationships tbh. i recently got cheated on and have trauma from it causing me to want to cry when i think about dating and shit. though, i've got back on my feet but still can't really think of love as a good thing anymore

I believe OP wasn't asking whether it was possible to fall in love, but rather whether one believed that love can take the form it does in fiction: Stable, monogamous partnerships, that last till the death of both individuals.

Even if love exists, then sooner or later one partner throws the other.. Or cheating on him. And keeps them only children, home, money and habits each other.

'Cheating on him'
There's a story here I feel.
I don't think that in every relationship it's granted one of the two will cheat or leave, I think that love between two people can exist.

I reckon that a large part of the issue is that we're not naturally inclined to want to stay with one partner for the rest of our lives. Like most animals, we're genetically programmed to just pass on our genes as much as possible.

Aren't humans supposed to be monogamous? Programmed to pass on our genes with he same person?

All things considered, I'd be happy with just friends.

Ah shit, there goes all my work.
Might as well delete those dicpics then.

The real question is: Do you believe in life after love?

Honestly I believe love exists. If I didn't I'm not sure how I'd explain the pain I felt post-breakup. I've yet to feel that way towards someone again, not even sure if I want to.

I broke up a few days ago but i'm cool with it. I wasn't too attached and i really needed that space to finish all the stuff i wanna put in.

It's fun how condensed love is as a word. And such is the case that it can't be described as the same for everyone.
Taking as example the greeks, they had atleast 4 words for different types of love. As such, you could describe (technically) exactly the type of "love" you were feeling about something. More important is that if you know the type of love you're dealing with, you know how to maintain it.
Now, using only a broad word to describe how you feel about something makes it not really tangible.
As an example, you can love your mom, your dog, and a qt girl. Your love for them won't be the same, neither they can be described as the same. And the catch is that, the "love" we're talking here is probably the third one, which is in majority of sexual value. As it is, one can conclude that the "love" we're talking here is nothing but attraction. Or in more broad terms, no, love in the meaning is is used as doesn't exist, it's just plain attraction for someone (or something) that will vanish as soon as the characteristics you like also vanish, or which is also common is that they're not appealing for you anymore.

Love is definitely real. I love my parents and my brothers so I know.

i don't believe in true love or infinitely happy relationships but i think love is just finding someone that you care about enough to put up with for the rest of your life, even though you may not agree with them all the time you still care about them more than anyone else in the world

Human's love is just chemical reaction. That's just an illusion.
Death is true human's love. They cannot have any more hatred and bad behaviour.

The only real love comes from nature. They don't have any hatred or bad things. They don't think yet they contribute for all of us.
