What is Love? Is it even real?

Hollywood myth of ideal of the gods?
I'm inclined to believe that love is real, but there's so much bullshit around it, it's hard to know what's genuine.
Is it really unconditional or is it derived from mutual respect and understanding?
What do you think love is? Is it the ultimate purpose? It's important to discuss it because it is a cornerstone in many of our lives, something that divides us from animals and the hedonistic beasts of the current year.

Is this a new kind of shitposting?

I'll don't know love is real, but mostly transitory.
Ide say love exists between parents and children, and in some pairings.
But mostly, love is a fleeting thing.
Love for ones people is eternal tho

Just read what the greeks said about love, as it can have different meanings.
Basically both your assertions are correct, although fort different kinds of "love".

It's real but becoming scarcer for a lot of people unfortunately.

INB4 "MUH THOTZ"

It's just some chemical reactions in the brain nothing else.

The ultimate purpose is procreation. "Love" is a chemically-driven delusion that some fall under, but it's no more than that.

I think the destruction of love is one of (((their))) biggest goals. That's why we have this disgusting book-up culture, the destruction of fidelity, if you can't find someone to love/marry, degenerate tinder flings seem like a reasonable alternative. Though you can fill all the physical holes you want, you'll never fill the one in your heart. Many of those people are the saddest most likely people on the planet. Which leads me to believe that love is supposed to be the standard. I mean look at pic related, how many couples would be buried together? How many even make it past 5 years together?

I've seen it. It looks at you like a puppy dog, like your the only important person in the world. It will do anything for you, anything it has power over. But get mad at it, and it erodes, each ounce of aggression and resentment towards it reduces it respectively forever until you part ways alone and empty. Each one of these cycles hardens your heart, so now you notice it and sense it happening but you feel NOTHING!

BABY DON'T HURT ME

Only men can love, women have too many counteracting biological signals

Can't you be swayed goy?
There's no miracles goy, it's just chemicals.

This is the most retarded thing I've read all day.

Love has many meanings. To me it is telling the truth whether it might hurt or not and from that better yourself and your own people. People miss understand this because they think you're out to hurt them rather then showing them things for how they are.
Love in the eyes of the many nowadays is having sex rather than improving each other. The whole empty "love yourself" or "love wins" the Marxists use constantly is damaging because loving yourself while you're a bad or damaged person is not going to help, neither does that same "love" triumph over others. I believe the hippies ruined it also in the same way that nowadays "love" is having sex.

I'm not a christian, but Pastor Anderson in video related explains it really well.

I knew there would be a flood of Haddaway posters.

Here's another question, if love isn't real, why do so many of us yearn for a waifu?

The way Jews love their families and children I think we can all appreciate it and feel jealous sometimes.

Because you are lonely and need a temporary companion.

Get here baby jew I wanna bite your benis.

Jews absolutely hate each other. Jews have no concept of love because they are always dishonest to each other. They have no soul at all.

Romantic love was invented by female writers about 300 years ago when they invented the Romance genre. It's a stupid myth that leads people to make stupid life decisions that they later regret.

Real love is something much deeper, that grows over time. It's not something you find at random, it's something you work together with your spouse to cultivate, like tending a garden. I can't find the link, but there was a study that found that couples in arranged marriages were just as happily married as married couples in the west who freely chose their mates. This goes to show you that picking someone based on that short-term infatuation that people often mistake for "love" doesn't do anything to improve your chances of developing real love and happiness.

Oh I think embed the wrong one

A temporary companion to raise kids and build a home with?

...

That can be done without any love.

You remind me of that user that claimed that women 300 years ago didnt write or compose any music because muh oppression and was blown the fuck out. Then later cried it was only rich women, which with he was blown the fuck out.
Yes, you had female writers 300 years ago as well.

sounds robotic and unfair to the kids. I'm willing to listen though, what would you say your philosophy is?

Love is like the Egyptian concept of the soul. It has many parts that can be larger or smaller.
Love does exist, and it is the most horrible thing you can look forward to.
You will suffer, and be glad for it.
The West has lost its love. The West no longer suffers for its own good. The West can not hate anymore, for hate comes from the defense of love. Women no longer hate, because love has been supplanted by comfort.
We're going to bring hate back.

Yeah that's a feminism meme my friend.

...

I'm just stating you can have a family without loving your spouse or partner, which nowadays happens a lot with liberals. Unfair would be if you lied to them, which liberals always do and is also damaging. You can see this with their broken families and their children being useless.
For example if you truly love your own race you'll go out and find a woman of your own race that is worth having children with, offspring that will be better than you eventually. And you be honest to both your partner and your children.
We all know this is important and it is a fact that we need to breed selectively otherwise you'll go down hill, which might be harsh but it is simply the truth and thus love and love for your own people.
Like I said before here: to me love is simply being honest and trying to improve yourself and your people.

I've lost friends over not giving a damn anymore about being politically correct all the time and being "nice". That is simply out of an act of love because I truly want people to understand how twisted everything is so that they can improve themselves as well, sadly people hate you for telling the truth because the truth nowadays is so harsh that it can spiral people into depression or even worse. But with that I've also gained new and better friends.
Therefor I like to say that Holla Forums is the most loving board or place on the internet you can find. It might not seem like it to the outside world but once you finally grasp what people are doing here you'll see it's all pure about being honest and in that also being loving. To me National Socialism is the ultimate truth and ultimate love, I think that was the message Hitler really wanted to give out.

To add liberals and communists are just same with their families. I know that leftypol is lurking here 24/7 and you too don't get a pass.

i can't explain it but once you fall in love with a ficitional character you'll know.

Love is pretty awesome faggot. Get married to a white blonde woman and make three white babies. It's fucking awesome

Why stop at three?

1 Corinthians 13:4-8

Love is not a feeling, it's dying to yourself for someone else. It's hard work that needs to be constantly maintained.

I remember feeling it once. Not a moment would pass without a thought given to her. Now there's no one to think about.

My father used to tell me this when describing love. Only thing is I don't believe in the modern bible as the unquestionable foundation of truth anymore, not even trying to fedora, it's just I know the bible has been subverted for thousands of years.

>Life is suffering
>Love is the desire to see unnecessary suffering ameliorated

>Truth is the handmaiden of Love
>Dialogue is the pathway to Truth

It's a collection of memes, from Rome to Jerusalem, from Alexandria to Macedonia.
There will be divine truths. It was meant to be all they had on the Logos. Context and language has changed, yes, but humans haven't. Holla Forums is falling ass first into Eastern Orthodox. They don't put as much weight on the book as the ideas within. The symbols and ideas, the utility, over all else.
Meme magic, synchronicty, Logos. Same thing different perspective.

KILL ME BABY
Fuck yeah, that's what it's called! Thanks for reminding me, user. That show's been in my backlog for months now, but I've never been able to remember the title.

You're the best.

Love is not real but if you have two people that believe in it fully and are dedicated, it can work.

Let me put it this way, user, if there was no love would we all be able to have such hatred for corruption of society and our people?

Trust in hatred, as it's an indicator of how deeply your love goes.

Love is real in many forms. But it must be fostered and protected from erosion.

The love between a parent and child is one of the purest and strongest examples of love. Whereas the love between a man and a woman can be deeply passionate and under favorable circumstances, one of the closest bonds of your life. There's love for your countrymen(ethnically speaking), those who have shared your way of life and who's descendants may one day intermingle with your own. They are your brothers and love for them should be protective, supportive, and helpful.

The love you're concerned with, the one between man and woman, is often fickle, especially so in today's times. It's more than just chemical reactions in your brain that make this love. People can live well past their golden years with the same partner. While chemicals do play an important role in attraction to a mate, love is more suited towards finding a partner for life. Someone to support you physically, emotionally, and perhaps even spiritually. They should be the one to help you raise your children, build your home, and ensure the continuation of your bloodline, but furthermore someone who will understand you as you both experience what life has to offer for the both of you. Through sorrow and through joy you will both have those memories and emotions that connect you.

But, as I said earlier, love is fickle and can break easily. The people who claim love is only chemical reactions confuse attraction and love. Where they thought more with their genitals than with their mind in considering things like their picked partners values, beliefs, and personality. Some young ones fall too fast without realizing how incompatible they would be later in life, especially over things like where you would live, how your children are raised and educated, career differences, and most importantly how you both react to certain important events in life.

With a different personality and belief system than your own, the person you're with is liable to change and have opposition to your own experience, which will eventually lead to you both growing apart.

This is why it's important to date seriously, not simple hook-ups. Treat every girlfriend like a potential wife and every boyfriend like a potential husband. If you aren't fit for each other with beliefs or cultures you should move on and not waste time with empty I love you's to spare someone's feelings. You may even care for them deeply, but not love them.

It's a fickle thing.

It's real. It takes a lot of confidence and sacrifice from both involved though, but it's as rewarding as you'd heard. - t. married oldfag, still in love and not larping (if writting this makes any difference)

This is what people are searching for, so it's as real as any dream or never relenting desire.


Impossible! A home without love is not a home, it is a prison sentence for everyone involved, serving their time until they can leave the nest or seperate. Search your heart, you know it to be true!

It hasn't. Look up textual criticism. The Bible we have now is almost exactly the same scripture that people had thousands of years ago. The only difference between ancient manuscripts is grammatical. I question everything in the world except the word of God, because my ancestors died to preserve it, and because it speaks to the insane world we live in.

Its the basic metaphysical bonding power of the universe, the passive receiving the active. Unfortunately corrupted in modern times.

Are you actually so stupid and out of touch that you think the binding force in human reproduction and civilization is just a Hollywood myth?

Just think about that for a minute

human is divided in two, and in union of these two does generate love and manifest in life incarnate.

Love is real, it's just been converted into an idealist make-believe fantasy by (((capitalists))). Those motherfuckers took a sacred tradition and transformed it into a marketing ploy for just about any consumer entertainment possible. Much like with nature and nationalism, they will never understand innate European drives to live, which is why they struggle to wipe "true love" out of existence in order to ensure that whites suffer demographically.

Your ultimate purpose is to have and raise children strong enough to follow you and your ancestors' legacy. You cannot achieve that without finding love in another human being who reciprocates those very sentiments.

Every one of us Holla Forumsacks either has already or will find their true love. Don't lose hope just because they have robbed you of something dear to your identity. Get /fit/, get /lit/, get confident, and go take that back.

*It almost seems like a bottomless pit of never finding someone who clicks with you.*

Well said user.

The only thing that makes me hold out a small sliver of hope that love is real was my grandparents relationship. Also, stories like vid related.

We're all broken sabotaged individuals and the best we can do is ensure future generations have the chance to grasp normality and live fulfilling lives.

This concept has been lost on the left as nihilism takes over.

OP don't hurt me.

How fucked in the brain do you have to be to think love didnt exist before Hollywood?

If anything, Hollywood peddles lust and calls it love, I've never seen actual love depicted on screen.

Fuck that destroyed me, user.

You need to love your woman enough to give her what she needs, discipline.

Did he tell you to stop?

Rain, this time of year?

When out of your own free volition, you hold the fulfillment and well-being of your beloved to be of equal or greater importance than your own.

Skipping right over the LARPing virgins in this thread. . .

Yes, love is real. Once or maybe twice in your life, you'll know a person who feels like your other half. You can trust this person with anything, and you know that she won't play you false, even if it all comes crashing down, she'll still be connected to you in a way that no other relationship has ever, or ever could, approach.

Years after you've fucked this relationship up; after you've become a white supremacist who's red as fuck on the JQ, and she's gone back to reddit; you'll still feel like part of you is missing, and you'll hope she's happy wherever she is.

And then you'll have nothing left but your white child and the Fourteen Words, and someday you'll make the kikes pay for everything. . .

Love is real.

Like oranges.

Love exists in my opinion on a broad spectrum without which there would only exist chaos. Love incentivises behaviour cohesive to triumph, greatness and happiness beyond that which cold logic alone could achieve. As love diminishes chaos blossoms, be it a household, a pursuit, a nation. Nothing can survive to long without love before it falls apart.

Love is at the core of the universal truths of fascism. Dismiss it at your peril.

If digits love is just a chemical reaction in the brain designed to make two people have children and care for them long enough to propagate the species.

It's a name given by stupid normies to a range of emotions associated with in group preference, sexual attraction and pair bonding, and close personal bonds. Basically, when your brain likes some specific individual or group of individuals and releases oxytocin. It is not some supernatural force, and it's not real in the normal sense - each type of "love" is slightly different, gets triggered differently and results in different instinctive responses.

The notion of romantic love is bullshit, if that's what you're asking. Men are naturally polygamous and women are naturally hypergamous. Monogamy is an artificial, socially enforced norm that gives all the betas a stake in the group's future. Your woman will never "love you for you", and you need to keep their instincts in mind when dealing with them, even if you're married. Without legal enforcement, they're extremely difficult to keep loyal.

Just because you experience it doesn't mean it's not scientifically explicable, retard. You feel a combination of the initial sexual attraction and short-term bonding instinct, combined with a personal bond formed over time. If you're lucky, by the time your initial high runs out and you'd normally be ready to move on to the next mate, you'll have spent enough good time together to have trained your brain to associate that person with positive stimuli.

Why are you here if not for love, a love for your people, the west and its culture? If you really believed as steadfastly in a scientific interpretation of love as you promote you would not engage in politics of this kind. You may not believe in romantic love between partners but you love and fiercely so. Holla Forums isn’t entertainment, by being here, by posting you are enduring torment, constantly reminding yourself of the seemingly impossible odds of which your people face, nonetheless here you are because you love.

If not for love you would be using this time to plan for your own selfish survival, thinking of escape routes to foreign shores or seeking alliances with the potential victors of this battle. You love user, more than most in fact. One day this powerful love may manifest itself for a woman even.

Women can be very loyal, just less so now that society cultivates shitty women (as well as men). As long as you're a good man worth following, a woman will do so. Not all, but most.

The only way to guarantee women will be loyal is to enforce monogamy socially and legally. Everyone thinks THEIR wife is special.

Blackpilled MGTOW Chad trying to justify his lifestyle, lack of White wife and children.

Shit, never knew Goethe wuz female.

A concept that women introduced to society in order to justify promiscuity and cheating. It's an undefined vague word while simultaneously given incredible value.

The idea that you can "fall into" love is retarded. The only idea of "love" that I subscribe to is something you create. Long lasting bonds are formed over decades. Do you think your 85 year old grandparents stayed with each other for 60 years because they were destined to from the beginning? Of course not. They stayed together because they were hard working and dedicated people.

Romantic love is just a kike scam to undermine traditionalist values and enable women's degeneracy.

Philosophers have been asking themselves that for thousands of years, and each have a different answer for it.
en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Philosophy_of_love

I wish they couldn't, but they could.

Love is a chemical reaction that happens in your central nervous system. Yes, it's real. Option 2 but don't forget the importance of trust. See my first answer. It is a path to the "ultimate purpose" not the purpose itself.

Also: many animals feel love to some extent. The same chemicals and "instincts" that keep us from eating our babies work just as well in lions (for instance).

Painfully checking those

If you want to be completely objectively honest, love and all emotions are merely chemicals in the brain. There's no such thing as free will either, otherwise you would stop fapping already or never fapped in your life. Also stop fapping and come to >>>/nofap/ rehab

But all emotions exist for a reason Captain black pill. Your entire existence is just one big controlled chemical reaction, from your neurons firing to your body temperature. So if you despise your very existence why don't you kill yourself?

The only true love that exists is that of a man for his volk.

ouch and checked

You'll never find someone that is 100% perfect, if you do she is probably faking it to make you feel better. Which she means well with but it is damaging in the long run.

NO MO

I don't know but it feels really nice.
If you open up you are vulnerable so if she accepts you as you are and likes you, if the feeling is mutual I guess this is love. When you can't stop thinking about her, just want to be with her all the time.

It can also work the other way and leave you a bitter crushed man.

I forgot this video. I have to order the book someday. It's a pretty good redpill for people that think the National Socialist was pure evil or that Hitler was pure Hitler.

You'll get her back man, women can't but help themselves to a man who kills their beta boyfriend in front of them and then proceeds to rape her.

Bless this man's white children.

True love is very rare these days I feel. So many couples are together and say they love each other because they feel they have to. Then factor in everyone wants their fantasy romance and wedding, yet they also want to have their fun.

Relationships are all over the place now, but few actually nurture that affection and love. Its more like "hook up at a bar, make an accidental baby and then marry. Congratulations, you're in love!".

basically is just chemicals tbh, humans require companionship otherwise we become lonely, depressed and want to kill ourselves unless you're into being alone 24/7 love is just a way of being with a person and removing loneliness. plus kids and shit, you're not going to have kids with some random bitch from over the street are you?

Don't be fooled.
Love is real.
It's just viciously misunderstood today.

Love is fanaticism.

By claiming it's just chemicals in the brain, is nothing more than a justification or a desire to see above the fact that we don't really have a free will. We are destined for things in life, the amount of all the other possibilities than we being on this board at this very moment is so astronomical, that it simply shows there's a reason to everything.

I don't know what love is btw, i've only ever felt attraction.

You phrased that exactly the way I've phrased it to myself for the past few months now, holy shit.

It is the logical conclusion to that mindset after all (regardless of whether its chemicals or divine creation or whatever). But the reason I (different user btw) haven't done it yet is the hope I might find a purpose that's more meaningful to me than the knowledge that I will never become the master of my own existence and transcend all this. But I really doubt that's possible.
That or I just consume enough animu/vidya (or learn Arch linux since I've heard you'll stay busy keeping it from breaking all the time) to keep my mind off it all so life is bearable until the escapism doesn't do it for me anymore.

What would that even look like? Seems vague.
