love: an a more accurate definition [reflection]

love: an a more accurate definition
We frequently use the term “love” in expressing our opinions. We use this term to describe what we enjoy like hobbies which we love doing, parts of a movie which we would love to see again, and or our country which many of us would be willing to die for if necessary. But “love” is different when it comes to relationships and mirage. Love between a relationship is at a higher level if not a different category which stands alone. To love someone is the strongest ability we have since true love can never be demolished.

Love is fake....All love basically is you give someone all the love you have until they decided to hurt you or end it.
I strongly disagree with Karen’s thought that love is “fake” and “does not exist” which was mentioned in her blog ilove you is an 8 letter word so is bullsh*t. Love with no doubt does exist and is real. Love is what brings and keeps a relationship existing between a man and a woman. If a couple divorces (and unfortunately ½ of all the relationships in America have been divorced), that obviously means that the relationship was not truly a relationship based on love but rather a based other characteristics such as appearance and attractiveness. True love lasts forever till death. It can never be broken or destroyed among a couple unless one of the two looses their character or self control (many times caused by drugs, addiction, illnesses) which he/she had for the other. True love is not fueled by appearance nor physical characteristics, but by personality and moral character.

Perhaps Karen got confused between love and attraction. Attraction only brings a male with a female based on their appearance or attractive characteristic. Naturally, this kind of relationship happens so an offspring can occur. This kind of “relationship/love” is frequently shown in our society through pornography. When one sees images of porn, usually they do not fall in love with that person in the picture but rather have an appetite for sex with that person. Another example where love is actually just attraction is prostitution. Throughout human history, the “love” in prostitution was only expressed for benefits such as money and pleasure for the man.
