Is love even real? I know it's a silly teenage like question but can someone at least argue for it's existence?
All I see is placebo effect when people are used to a person and convince themselves it's love. Maybe we love our pets and our parents but I don't see ourselves LOVING our partners.

Nanonymous No.14522 [D] >>14524
It depends on how you define "love". Love as a metaphysical force? I don't think so.
But if you look at love as the caring for others, then it's quite obvious it does exist. As you've said, the love for parents and friends (philia). The erotic love has a more thin line between simpler erotic love (will for reproduction - eros) and what some people call the "true love" (agape):
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greek_words_for_love

If agape does exist or not, as I've said, it depends on how you define it. But I wouldn't underestimate it. As a anecdote, I have had experiences that persistently hunts me every single day and they are very emotional. I don't think you can explain these experiences as easily as pointing to some neurotransmitters like oxytocin/dopamine. This must be a much more complex neural process and I don't think we as humans have even 20% of what's actually going on in our brains.

As >>14522 said, depends on how you define love. The sensation is just chemical reactions on our brains.

Nanonymous No.14525 [D] >>14530
Certainly human beings, including sexual partners, can have very deep emotional bonds. Perhaps you feel disillusioned because of the bullshit quasi-religious "soul mate" theory hollyjew likes to promote.

You used the EXACT image I used for a post here about my gf months ago. Cute.
Following that, I believe love is absolutely real. Be patient and wait for the rare girl who isn't a vapid whore. With degeneracy being burned into the souls of the masses through media, diet, technology, etc., this is very hard; hard to the point of me understanding why non-normies (who are actually entirely normal while normies may as well be non-sentient beings) give up so easily.
All I can tell you is to pray for good luck. Girls who understand image board culture, as in not nu-reddits like 4chan/8chan do exist
>>14525
This. More so when inter-racial couples bound by religion are promoted.

If you never loved, then it never existed for you, DUH.

Anyway that 14522 post is a nice elaborate one for those who don't love.

Now we are here,
Where none of us was before.
Restless we have been,
The years still linger with us long after.

All, that we have, is us.
What we are waiting for, is here.
See through the signs,
love and torment.
All that remains is an escape forward.

We took off too far,
your heart breaks all barriers.
What keep us going
is the abyss, which we have found.

Now we are here,
where none of us was before.
Restless we have been,
the years still linger with us long after.

The roads become step,
but we see ever more.
Shadows grow around us,
the light shines towards us.

what's love got to do got to do with it?
what's love but a second hand emotion?

Nanonymous No.14538 [D] >>14539
the way i see it. love is patient.love is kind. the person you fall in love with is not only attractive to you, but imperfect. and you see their short comings, and tolerate it, or laugh at it, while they might hate themselves for their own short comings.

Thoughtful. Probably precicely why my first love fell for me. I accepted her enough to where she would reveal shortcomings to me she would reveal to nobody else. She didn't expect me to accept these shortcomings. Sure enough, I didn't. I laughed at them. Teased her for them. Yet, suddenly, she hated herself less...

Women cannot feel love, I know that much.
Don't trick yourself into thinking otherwise just because your dick told you.

Nanonymous No.14556 [D]
The only true love for a man is love of God. If we love God he will give us a good wife as a reward for truly following him.

This.
>“The Matrix is a system, Neo. That system is our enemy. But when you're inside, you look around, what do you see? Businessmen, teachers, lawyers, carpenters. The very minds of the people we are trying to save. But until we do, these people are still a part of that system and that makes them our enemy. You have to understand, most of these people are not ready to be unplugged. And many of them are so inured, so hopelessly dependent on the system, that they will fight to protect it.” --Morpheus
All that romance shit you're fed from the time you were born by society and the media is a lie but you internalized it want to believe it so you cling to it unwilling to let it go like Cypher in The Matrix. There are different types of love--the English language doesn't distinguish them easily. I know for a fact women can't experience romantic love. They can experience some of the other types like love for their children and objects like their dildos, boxed wine and phones.

And where is the source of that?
Females are human beings. Even though they do have differences from males, they are the same specie as ours. You're overestimating them.

Don't listen to your dick damn it. Your dick is that 13 year old who can't stop making sex jokes.
Females are property.

>bio-women are deeply flawed
I know how to fix everything guys.
<create artificial womb tech and when it's fully developed and working well
<murder all bio-cunts; they consume resources. Some anons can rp as the Supreme Gentleman but this time actually kill some sluts
<replace them with waifu robots with artificial wombs
<men need to obtain a license to use artificial womb tech to create humans(we need a way to screen reproduction somehow so we don't end up a population full of retards--if whores continue to be the gatekeepers of reproduction we'll end up a population of good looking but retarded criminals). The licensing criteria could have requirements for intelligence, physical appearance, relatively free of genetic diseases, etc..
