Baby don't hurt me... don't hurt me... no more.
Hehe. Song's wayyy too catchy.
But onto the main topic.
I'm a newbie when it comes to love. I can't say I know what it is, I can't say I've ever experienced it, and I can't say that I know what it's caused from. So, I post this thread in the hopes that someone more experienced in the topic could give me a tip or two about it.
There's a few brain tickler's that I can't seem to wrap my head around, though.
If love is unconditional, then why is it that so many people are so careful about who they choose as partners? Setting certain requirements for a person to reach before they are dating material. This just seems to contradict itself so much. Wouldn't this mean that as soon as those requirements weren't met, the love would end? That would certainly explain a lot of ruined relationships.
We know the symptoms of being on love, but what's the cause of it? I don't mean physical attraction or anything like that. I mean genuine love. The kind that keeps two people together regardless of what either of them do. Is it something beyond what humans are able to grasp?
Certainly, there's certain parts of it that contribute to the feeling of love. But, most of those emotions are mistaken for it. Like, infatuation, physical attraction, the mystery of the person... All of which are very fleeting. Do any of those things have any place in real love?
Is love mutual, or can it be a one-way-thing? I suppose this would go hand in hand with the cause of it. But, the question still remains. Can someone unconditionally love someone who doesn't love them back?
That's all I can think of for now.
Don't make fun of me too much for asking, eh?
