LOVE -- better to have loved and lost, or never loved at all?

anyone else never loved someone before?


what even is "love" exactly?
how does it feel to love someone?
how does it feel to know that you could love someone?

i love my nation and that's about it really. and i only love it since it's mine, and really i guess it fills the gap of having nothing to actually give love to

>i love my nation
What does that even mean?

its an amazing feeling. falling out of love sucks but in time you move on. it can take a year or two but you get over it.

>fell in love with roastie whore at 17
>dated for 1.5 years
>dumped her in a fit of beta rage because she was trying to swing to chad
>she OD'd on heroin 4 years after that

so i got some pretty good closure

why have you posted dogs? you have a dog?

>What does that even mean?
it means that i am willing to die for it

no, i'm on a work laptop and that was a high quality stock photo i had to download for a client's website

You killed her. You are the reason her life ended.

>how does it feel to love someone?
I know because I fall in love easily and very intensely. But then I realized that normies don't have the same definition. They told me what I was feeling was not "love" : "you can't love a girl if you never went out with her and never had a relationship with her"

I fall in love with a girl in our group of friends, I fall in love of a pretty girl in college, a beautiful singer...

Once a shrink told me, condescending, that it was a sign of health to fall in love with girls IRL, not just from TV/movies/games/music.

yea i'm in love. I have only seen her once and that was 4 years ago.

Pathetic post.

(pathetic post)

Such good looking dogs. I wish I had a pair of dogs like that.

Do you know where to find her? Is she famous? Does she live in Paris France?

I could find her. I won't. I intentionally left so I didn't fuck up her life (and mine)

>They told me what I was feeling was not "love" : "you can't love a girl if you never went out with her and never had a relationship with her"

hmm, what did they mean by this then? maybe they were full of shit, but i wouldn't know from experience of loving anyone.
to be fair though i have extreme autism & am completely loyal. so i'm not sure what exactly feeling "love" would let me experience differently.

feeling loved by a gril would be nice though

oh, I just understood it was a long distance relationship. I've never had that, so I thought you had fallen in love at first sight of a girl you only saw (and heard of) once.

the aura surrounding the blocks surrounding where she was was insane. it was like a space carnival

there was nothing out of the ordinary about any of it, it was just that the air was buzzing with electricity, when I see her again I assume it'll be like getting struck by lightning

It's better to never have loved. Loving and losing is a negative experience. Not loving at all is neutral since nothing is being experienced. A zero is better than a negative. As for the question, most romantic love is fueled by sexual attraction and traits that are best suited for survival/raising fit kids. That's all there is to it; it's completely conditional and founded on superficial reasons. There's nothing special about it and you're not missing out.

She, although she wasn't doing anything remotely similar, was cutting off the head of the devil with the sword of justice

>hmm, what did they mean by this then?
Apparently they meant that love was a difficult thing, like loving someone despite all the bad things. Contrary to daydreaming about someone imagined as perfect.

For me, to love someone is to think about her all the time, speak with her in my head, imagine she's there, try to draw her face in my brain, hug a pillow and imagine it's her, and esp saying her name a lot in my head, like a mantra, an omen, a prayer. Also, staring at her long hair in class.

I really don't see what's crazy about that.
I know it's love because when she'd be there physically, I'd get the butterflies in my belly, the shaking legs, the flushed face, the heart racing, the warmth in my chest...

But it's surely very mysterious, some say that those connections are highly dependent on the style of attachment with our first primary caretaker (usually the mother)

the bing that can fall in love with any1 is the being that completely hates itself

Yeah who said anyone, hater?

HA who gon cast u in2 boiling mercury?
finna b meh

user, I don't know you. From this point on I will never know you. But mark this; you are Man, born mortal but also born of Free Will. If you are smitten and you bleed, that does not make you a lesser man? You have two hands, in one you see your inevitable death, in the other, you see your destiny.

That sounds more like the idealistic, infatuation love you see in the media. That fades in a while and you realize there's nothing special at all about the person or the relationship you had.

>That fades in a while and you realize there's nothing special at all about the person or the relationship you had.

any girl that pays attention to a robot is 'special' for that reason

i myself haven't even met a girl in 4 years, if any girl who was OK to be around and not ugly gave me that sort of affection i would gladly return it. how would it fade exactly? i would want to go back to complete solitude?

You'd get a gf then get bored and then get pissed when you can't play vidya all day or whatever you do in your robot life. You yearn for the good old days of no responsibilities and pressure.

Robots do not make good partners, you have to be able to make yourself happy before you can make someone else happy, as cliche as it sounds.

I don't really think I've ever felt love in my whole life
I've just lusted after girls. I found them pretty, I never loved them
I really wish I could feel love, but I just can't
my ultimate dream in life is to be able to feel pic related for someone, anyone, 3d or 2d
sadly, I don't think it's ever going to happen. Im just emotionally dead, and empty inside

Delete this shit right now it makes me upset because every time I think of how to realistically obtain this I get really anxious and I start to consider suicide to relieve myself of the pressure

literally fucking this

it makes me want to go to a place with handicapped people and just jump around laughing about how great it is to have feet & be able to walk

Don't worry robots that guy is probably about 18 with a gf of a few months max, it's absolute bullshit.

The most happy people I know in a relationship have the most functional relationship, as in they complement each other's personalities and skills, it's basically like creating a team of any kind, sentiment only gets you so far.

This

Lost my GF exactly for those reasons, three years in a relationship where i didnt gave two fucks for her it was always ME, she couldn't stand anymore, it's so sad cause now i see what i lost and how much i love ger.

Never loved at all is better since love can mean lots of things and is way to varying among people. People find enjoyment in other things.

You only feel this way because it's all you've ever known. But once you experience something, you're bound to get bored or sick of it after an amount of time or exposure. Relationships are no different in this regard.

If you got back with her you'd only want your own space again

Found the Dick and Shorty fan

you have to accept reality eventually user

I am in love with my old fwb from 3 years ago.
I started talking to again 2 months ago and she is coming over to my house of my birthday before she moves away forever (she is moving 8 hours away so it will probably be the last time i see her)
Do i have a good chance to sleep with her one last time? She was the only girl i ever had sex with and i want to make out last meeting special

Without trust, love is terror. That's why it's really important to communicate well. But by default, it's joyful because everything you do and are becomes relevant to your relationship, and then it's like the world is connected and it's all meaningful, and every experience is like progress towards wholeness.

>how does it feel to know that you could love someone?
It feels like I need to be suspicious of everyone I'm drawn to, because they could hurt me if I'm not careful.

That's the truth whether you like it or not. Love can't happen without attraction or conditions. It's just something that happens and dies out all the time, there's nothing special about it.

What's your nation?

Trusting someone is how you get exploited and used. Everyone's an asshole, just look out for yourself.
