Is love real, or is it just another normie meme?
I'm going to get shit on for posting a quote from Reddit: The TV Show, but this is precisely the truth.
As if any of us will ever know.

That's not love, that's just infatuation.
Love in this context implies something mutual between people.
We have never had that. We do not have that. We will never have that.

What's the difference between familial love and romantic love?
>>25850251
The chemical reaction in your brain that causes attraction is definitely real. However, love itself and the meaning behind it are all made up and don't exist. Don't waste your time with that bullshit. No relationshits these days last.
It's real but it's just a chemical reaction in the brain. Over extended periods of time you adapt to that change and it becomes normal.
Money exists. Everybody has their price.
Think about the concept of money.
Now think about what love even means.
There's your answer.

"Love" is just attraction, and isn't anything more than that. If you're ugly you're fucked and basically unlovable.
>Love is just le chemical reaction maaaan
>You're much better off posting on our MRA subredd...ahem...R9K about how shit women are
>Good goy!

Familial love is, for all intents and purposes, friendship. That probably sounds cheap in the era of Facebook "friends" but I don't mean it that way. It is important. It exists to keep the family together.
Romantic love is different. It exits to give birth to families and as such is far more compassionate. Familial love is warmth, romantic love is the fire.

Love is a chemical reaction in your brain

So wait...
How is romantic love different from being friends with benefits? What characterizes a "romantic love" relationship that distinguishes it from friends with benefits? Is it just more intense affection? Or is there something else?

It's a chemical reaction to encourage you to have sexy time or to protect other members of your tribe
It's brain chemistry, but so is literally everything else. It's just what we refer to the specific shit going on that makes us attached to other people.
I've been in love with the same girl for almost eight years now, and the feelings have never died. She stopped loving me four years ago and hasn't spoken to me in two. I think about her every day, all the time. I'd call that love, you can call it whatever you want it doesn't really bother me but "love" makes sense within the context of our society.

Would you die for your "friends with benefits"? Would you be emotionally disturbed, and profoundly so, if separated? If yes, then it is love. The same applies to familial love and family members as well. That why I clarified on the point of friendship.
People converse, gather, and have sex with one another with only the slightest of passing interest these days. They often think of themselves as friends. I wouldn't. You can't live without friends.
These are of course my own definitions, and I imagine you have your own. Perhaps conflicting. I won't argue the point. This is all an opinion. In reality, you're free to "be friends" and "be in love" however you so please.
