"Love is Failure" by Garrett R.

Why do people brag about being in love? I mean...maybe they don't intend to...but they do. Why would someone be proud of failing yourself as an individual entirely...?

You don't "rise" in love...you FALL in love. It isn't a process of going up in the world...it is the act of getting totally broken down so that the very fibers of your emotion are fabricated with anothers...it means you have no control of your heart (no one does-- a major flaw of being human), no sense of self, and no knowledge of what love really is anyways...who has a proper, universally known and recognized view of love? No one. You always hear people say after a break up, "I just have to get back on my feet.." Oh yeah...that means get our of the love pit or at least a few hundred steps if you really liked the person...this flows right along with the up-down analogy of love.

It seems people are starting to accept the following statement as fact, "Love is Victory."
Another common statement is; "Love is bliss." I have felt love (or something close) get blown up in my face...I have also felt a simple fight hurt so much more just because love was present...
Another; "Love is Perfect" --People (the general public) always say..."I love him/her BUT..." Kind of contradictory isn't it?

It just makes me wonder about love...Simply put...

Is it Failure? Is it Indescribable? Imaginary? A hoax for the bleeders? Just another way for people to act better than other people cause they are together? A high school thing? Something to be outgrown? Fake? Scarier yet...real?

Don't get me wrong...I believe in love and feel it can be amazing and the greatest feeling ever...once understood. I just wonder about it...after corruption and mutilation by society...what is left of love?

I always laugh at the people who meet online...a week later start "dating" and shout out on their myspace pages about love at first instant message!
If this is what is left of love...You better call your significant other up, and well...chat it up.

Is love conceivable at the age of 14 (average age of first "serious" gf/bf in America)? What about now (19 years old)? What about the forties? I don't know. Part of me is wishing that webster would just come up with a new word for every single "love" definition out there and forget about love entirely...
Personally, I would really appreciate it if my significant other were to say "I herklinstine you" rather than, "I love you" because I don't know what that means!!!

I know one smart ass is going to drop a definition on me. Well...they were going to until I said that...some still might, JUST to do it...I don't care. I won't acknowledge it. Love is too corrupt the way it is. "Love is Perfect?"...right.

I agree to using love as an answer. Or saying, "I love you"...I do it myself. Just make sure you know what it means when you say it to someone...

You can feel free to contradict me on here...I don't care...I am open to arguing as long as you do it politely...all stupid and unthought-out posts will be deleted. Or if I don't like you or your opinion represented on my note. It is my note and I will delete you if I want to. :)

If I offended you because you just posted on your girlfriends Wall how much you love her with a picture of a little kitten stretching his arms with the caption, "Iz luvz u theeeeez much!"(One of my favorites)...then I am sorry you don't have the stability to handle my opinion and I really suggest you check the lost and found to find your pair or get a garden and grow some new ones... I am sure they sell those seeds at wal-mart or something...So if i offended you...just...grow up. Really. Chances are...you are just another Karen in the system...or a Brian...(See Dane Cook)

  1. To be completely honest, from an unaffiliated viewpoint, you just sound bitter to me.

    Which is understandable in a society where love is not understood and used in the most superficial of ways. If you are or were once a person to take love seriously, and someone who did not understand "love" broke your heart, it is reasonable that you would be angry.

    I still don't understand the most common usage of the word "love" because most people who use it don't seem to ... "mean" it. Or they don't understand what it means to value another person so very much.

    I am drunk rambling, and for that I apologize, but I set out with the best of intentions.

  2. Bitter? Perhaps. But that does not remove the validity from my point. Which you seem to have got looking at your comment. Thanks for reading and commenting. :)
