Re: Love, what is it?
For a start we are talking about "eros" love.
Quote:
Love is suppose to be selfless, so your opinion about love being possessive isn't based on pure love but twisted love. Could you give some examples of where you think love can't be justified by its "shadows" that you claim it to cast.

Re: Love, what is it?
Note: I am a logical person who needs proof to be certain in something. Aka, I don't believe in religion, however I believe in the POSSIBILITY that it COULD be true (Aka, agnostic).
And I have an animal theory. It's not something I believe to be fact or anything, but just something I theorize could be true. I'm now happy I wrote up all my theories Quote:
(Reminder: It's a theory, not something I state to be fact)

Re: Love, what is it?
Love is a feeling of great passion towards another self or being. Everyone has love assuming there is a need of approval within them. Think about it. All people need to be told they have done a good job or they become untrusting and depressive. The person they find this in is the one they "love". Whether they find that for a moment, a while, or long term, that is what we consider to be love.

Re: Love, what is it?
Love is fake in so many ways... there are only a few things that real love is. That, too, is what makes us what we call "human". We are too species and arrogant, but not as much as so to many species to we seen and to a majority. There are low lifes who take "love" for granted and crap, but it is hard to explain, because animals that aren't human don't exactly "love".
You can see this on the fact that animals don't have to travel far and long to find a mate. They do it quick and through calls and stuff of that sort. Love is an advanced brain function, we may find out what love really is later, as of now, most things are theory and what not. If I don't make sense, don't worry. I am saying this as I go. XD (any spelling or grammar errors, please correct me, especially if you're a forum mod/admin etc.) |

Re: Love, what is it?
Pure love is the selfless affection that one person feels towards another.
So using that definition, pure love should and can only be a positive thing. Can you please give some examples of some sort of what you are trying to get at here.

Re: Love, what is it?
My biology teacher said that the only purpose of life is surviving. Surviving by being the strongest, hunting down preys to feed yourself up and by passing on your gens. So the brain invent an attraction, a need to find someone else, to keep your ascendence alive.
That's what we call love.

Being in the 9th grade, like almost every other high school the freshman are givin Romeo and Juliet to read as part of the curriculum. Now I didn't finish reading the book yet but as to what i know of it and what i hear about it, the two young lovers seem to do whatever it takes to share their love together with one another as much as possible. Now I mean I know its just a story but they were practically kids and maybe attracted physically so much that they thought it was astrological as I remember. One last thing that you should consider is that the possibility of possessivness just being a "tag" that us humans created out of the ego, which i believe to be true as for my knoledge holds. And a pure relationship is one of no possession but rather depossession ... if thats even a word. See its a bit hard to explain so ill put it this way, I believe a true marriage is the unification of man and woman so that they not physically, but spiritually become one. While it may be hard to imagine this being possible now adays im sure it was possible back then when there was less interference and more self, self being detatchment from all things except ones self and being purely you. So my conclusion is that a pure relationship is two people in purity, totally their complete self living together in harmony as themselves, not as wife or husband but as one. |

Re: Love, what is it?
Love is merely another feeling that is triggered from your brain.

Re: Love, what is it?

I'm also not quite sure what you mean by "I have yet to see purity in love because its immensely political." but I'm assuming that you mean that love is so variable with so many interpretations that it would be difficult to find pure love? and even that in itself is variable. lol i'd love to discuss this with you as i too have alot of unanswered questions that i want clarified but i think we both could use a little more clarification. Well those last questions you asked in your statement are very deep in philisophy atleast to my belief and alot of this is opinion based because if anything were proven to be true, there would nothing to be debated about ... except its being proven true be proven true ... ugh confusing. But ANYWAY I believe that EVERYTHING in nature is one because we are all composed of the same atomic unit, which are atoms! But not only in that are we similar but in spirituality. As for how they feel ... I'm not quite sure since i haven't experienced this for myself but i would presume they would feel EXTREMELY happy, or just not feel at all. And the last statement is easy to dispute because what i'm about to tell you might make the most sense out of what im saying, when we are brought into this world we are ourselves and purely that, as we gain knoledge and understanding we start to drift apart from ourselves, but not in all cases. Anyway, in relation to this topic i believe a pure relationship if composed of two pure people, they don't justify that they are pure, that would be considered using the ego, they just are like the clouds and animals, they just are. Without knowing. I know it is SO HARD to imagine something like this being possible because of our society's influence on our minds but you can't say that it is not possible because you can't prove its not, and if so please do ^_^ I remember this statement from a modern day philosopher known as Michael Tsarion that sort of opened my eyes a bit. And this is not an exact quote but a dog does not see a human for what the humans see themselves as, the dog sees the human for what it purely is, while you can't really prove it, as you can't really prove much it is something i believe because dogs don't have the capacity to logically think things out, so according to my believe they are pure because of that. |

Re: Love, what is it?
IDK what love is. I feel that love is a stronger feeling of likeliness towards another individual but I also feel that no one can truly know what love really is because to love is to be infatuated so love is basically infatuation. Love seems to be a non-existent feeling. But that's just how I feel other people are entitled to their own opinion concerning love.

Re: Love, what is it?
Love is everything that hate is not. Funny how no one seems to have a hard time describing how much they can hate someone...........
