Love

I realized that I don't believe in love. I believe in relationships. Love, as I use it, is a verb. As most people use it, it is a rationalization of lust and codependence. Its what happens when emotions become involved in a lustful and obviously codependent relationship. These emotions are not the good ones. They are fear, loneliness, depression, anxiety, etc…. Most people I have spoken with on the subject have no idea why they are "in love." They can't explain in any rational terms what love is. That's because there is no tangibility in a verb. What is run? What is talk? There is motion. There is speech. What is the noun of which love as a verb is a reflection? Perhaps it is romance. But romance is a derivative of lust. Its what makes one comfortable with lust.

These are just random thoughts. I lack the capacity, at the moment, to expound. Plus, I just want the feedback on this.

LOVE IS SACRIFICE... U DON'T TRULY LOVE SUMONE UNLESS U'RE WILLING TO LAY DOWN YOUR LIFE FOR THEM, U WILL ONLY DIE OR KILL FOR THE PEOPLE U TRULY LOVE... THINK ABOUT IT, THE FEW PEOPLE U WOULD JUMP IN FRON OF A BULLET FOR... MAYBE UR MOM, KIDS, SISTER OR BROTHER, MAYBE A TRUE FRIEND OR TWO, UR DAD, UR GRANDMOTHER OR GRANDFAHER, AND IF U'RE REALLY LUCKY, THAT SPECIAL SUMONE THE LOVE OF YOUR LIFE... TRUE LOVE IS SACRIFICE.... LOVE IS SACRIFICE MANE....

hmmmm..... i don't know man. i agree with you in that i feel that most people don't know what they're talking about when they say they love someone or are in love. I mean, look at the ease in which the word love is used - Personally, I love french fries, and I would love to go to Europe. If love is so strong an emotion, why is it so easy to relate it to something so trivial? I read somewhere that the average time that it takes a dating couple to say they love each other is 6 weeks - How the hell do you figure out such an emotion as 'love' in so short a time? I don't disagree that most people rationalize lust and desire as true love, because if you ask them a year later if they still love that person, 9 times out of 10 the answer is no. So yes, there really is no noun for which love the verb is a reflection - the noun itself is love, which isn't a tangible thing. On the other hand, I do still believe in love. I can't honestly believe that the close partnership and/or codependency and understanding that i've seen in some couples is only related to their being scared the other person will leave them. I feel like it has to be a very strong emotion, a strong force, that convinces you to spend the rest of your life essentially sleeping, eating, and being with one person - I was under the impression it was not human nature (or at least not male human nature) to have only one partner. I don't think that strong force is something basal like fear, but what it is I don't know. But I suppose when you meet the one, you just know.
