Love Sucks

   

I don’t believe in love anymore. Pessimistic as it may seem, Love is just too perfect, too ideal, and too abstract to exits in this too imperfect world. It is just a name given to explain the biological conditions experience by starry-eyed (hopeless) romantics. 

            How can you tell if there is love? Is it when your hand trembles, head spins, heart palpitates, tongue dries up and you feel like fainting? Is it when you just want to shout “out of love”? In this case, then love is just a product of the disorientation. I say it’s all in the mind. Whoever told us these signs constitute the feeling of love is a big joke.  

Actually, the feeling of being “IN LOVE” is caused by an increase of dopamine. Naturally, the dopamine level does go back to normal which explains the feeling of “FALLING OUT OF LOVE”.   This means that people are in love in some time and will eventually fall out of it. Another case: Love is just an imbalance of chemical flow in the body. 

Love is socially constructed to explain the biological abnormalities that romantics experience. I sometimes pity those who believe that their hearts palpitate because of love. For all we know, half of the population have heart diseases. 

I do not pity those who have never experience that “bliss” caused by “Love”. It has become so alien to many people that it has ceased to exist.

 So you see…Love is only there when people choose it to be. In the end, LOVE IS A DECISION, NOT A CONDITION.
