Hello. I have a question for all the Lost Souls:

What is love in your reality?

To be more specific, I am talking about the kind of love you find between two lovers. I realize how strange this question may sound. But this is very important to me and I would appreciate it if as many people as possible could reply to this with serious answers.


PS: please don't reply with a link to Haddaway's song.

Oh, I don't think the science of it is boring... But to think of it like that takes away the magic of it all.

As for my question, people assign different values to words and feelings. It would be even more drastic from a reality to another, don't you think?

[mahoraga]

I guess?

And what's your interest in this? Is there something you're trying to figure out yourself?

[peninhand]

Yes. Love.

I do not want to make any mistakes when it comes to something so precious and beautiful. That's why I want to know exactly what it is people call love.

I know I responded, but I don't actually have an answer to that, beyond what I said before.

[ He doesn't think about it much or have a personal understanding. There's a part of him that wants to understand, though, even if the topic feels dangerous somehow. ]

Did you have a personal opinion on it?

[peninhand]

I used to, yes.

But... I was wrong. It hurts to admit. But things that happened proved just how wrong I was.

[mahoraga]

What was this personal opinion then? If you don't mind me asking ...

[ He's so curious now. ]

[peninhand]

I'm sorry.

For all the questions I ask, it is too painful of a topic for me to speak on. But I will say that my personal opinion brought great pain to those I loved.
