I don't. I think it's the most important thing in the world be it platonic or romantic. I think it's just hard to find people who will truly love you and are worth being loved back.

I don't think so. Almost all people have or at least crave love in their lives, and I'm not talking exclusively about romantic love. There are friend love, family love, etc.

May the day never come for someone to genuinely think that.

Love is overrated. Why fall in love when you can watch anime, read manga, comics and books all day and sometimes go to King Island and other parks.

I think it is in a lot of cases.
People seem to spend their entire lives looking for love in some form or another, but all it really does is annoyingly occupy your brain all of the time, create needless anxiety and worry (for a multitude of different reasons) as well as a great deal of dependency that can become dangerous if you're not careful. It's tiresome thinking about something/another person all of the time and also getting sudden episodes of profound dread upon the realization that you won't always be together- one day you'll inevitably be separated either by circumstances or death.

Sure, love has it's wonderous moments, but I feel that more often than not the cons outweigh the pros. What do a few euphoric minutes amount to in a whole life span??

Well, that's what it's like in my experience anyway...or y'know maybe I'm just morbid and cynical XD

Well, I don't like how a lot of people think about romantic love, that's for sure.



weetI guess, as long as I have life, all I can do is fight with all my might.

People generally describe love as the most wonderful thing in the world. For me, it's the biggest source of suffering, something that uselessly distracts me from my usual inside peace.
I probably sound immature, but I just have yet to see how loving someone is so good. It makes us expect things from people we love, there are frustrations, disappointments, sadness, arguments (They may even end up hating instead).

It's not "overrated", however it's not an important aspect of life for everyone.Everyone has different standards in life, and it's perfectly fine if love is not part of those standards, some people just don't want to share their lives with someone else like that.

it's great but it comes and goes. But it's definitely an amazing thing.
I CELEBRATE myself,
And what I assume you shall assume,
For every atom belonging to me as good belongs to you.

If you mean like person x person love yes, It's completely overblown.

But love itself is a fantastic thing.

It's one of the few things that actually matter. Problem is a lot of people either dont know what love really is or dont express their love in the best ways

You can't trust anyone because you never know what they really think about you, they could tell you that they love you and lie about it.
Love is something like a mutual lie between the couple.
Until they invent a machine that will let us read the minds of others always, there can never be real love.

Not at all.Love is important and it isn't only about affection to other people and things.First of all,you must love yourself,because it helps you to boost your self-confidence and self-esteem and it helps you move on in difficult situations.If you don't love yourself I think it is very difficult to love and be loved back.The problem is obsessed or hypocritical love,because can hurt not only other people's feelings but also yourself.And today is not easy to really love someone,because of insincerity,that many people have.Unfortunately,many people take advantage of other people's emotions.
