Is love really an illusion

Love has been reduced to sex and kisses. Care is being measured over distance. Crushes are being confused for lovers. Money can't buy love yet no one dates a poor person. I love you they say, I'll hurt you they mean. We say love never ends yet we have ex's. We say love is not possessive and selfish yet we love people only when they agree to date us. Most of the people we hate are people we once loved. And I ask myself, how can love turn into hatred in just a second. Everybody wants to be loved but not everyone is good at it because it's one thing to fall in love and another to be in love. People don't really want real things anymore. image

great post about love. the word call love is easy to pronounce. but difficult in action. it is easy to pretend that you love just as it is easy to fall into the pretends of love.

Nooo! Please don't afford to think like that.
Yes, the image of love in our society has been reduced horribly, but it's the cinema (Hollywood) that contributes to this type of thinking. So many movies show utopic ideas of love, which simply aren't real and do not exist in our real world, and therefore people set their standards high following what they see and believe is the idea of love. But once you meet someone you feel a spark with, and once both of you aren't afraid of feeling that spark and admitting it to yourselves, you'll flow into the right path of what you're supposed to do.

Love turns into hate when there's a miscommunication between the person you love and both of you don't care to resolve that miscommunication. What happens is that both of you start making assumptions about each other & each other's actions and neither talk about it until more and more assumptions build up on another that are false, over a long period of time. That's when the negative energy comes in, that's when the 'hate' starts to form, and in the end you're so caught up in your assumptions and opinions that you fail to perceive the TRUTH. To prevent this from happening the most important thing is to communicate, communicate, communicate!! Ask whatever is on your mind, always talk to them about your fears in your relationship and everything will go the right way.

Hope this could maybe change your idea on love, because it has oh sooo much to offer, and with you thinking this way you're already making assumptions & distancing yourself without experiencing the real thing!

Hmm thanks so much
