It’s real, but it’s very hard to describe since it’s a paradox all on its own and can become toxic if anyone doesn’t know any better.
I’ve gone through a Philosophy lesson on this topic, and the best way I could describe it are these:
- it’s not a necessity, because love is a choice.
- it cannot be absent because it’s already transcended for many years through many generations in many, many forms between friends, family, and loved ones.
- you cannot love another if you cannot love yourself first. What can you give another when you have nothing in the first place? Take care and be kind to yourself the same way you’d want someone to be kind to you.
- Love starts within yourself, it’s possible that it’s very little, but it grows if you let it.

As a hopeless romantic love is something I often think about, that’s honestly the reason why I started writing in the first place it teleports you to a place where love has all kinds of possibilities and I love that!

As a teen I never believed in love. I never expected it or sought it. I hated whole world, specially myself.
With my actual husband we were friends for 1.5 years after we discover that we like each other in other ways 
He show me how to love, how to be happy. We are in love for… 14 years. Yep, I’m super old 
There is still passion in our case, but we’re like s*x addicted 
We fight, but we always find way to each others arms 
I never was romantic, I never felt need to be with someone, to have relationship. It just happend.
I hope you all will find it at the most unexpected moment in your life

This forum is probably 99% female. So I’ll give my response from a male perspective:
Yes, I am a romantic person at my core, but despite dating a few girls, I haven’t been in love, at least not “real” love.

What love means to me…
It’s a word like any other, but is it the same? A feeling known, yet unknown, to all, a word meaning much, yet none. It’s not just a feeling, nor just a word. And to know what it is, you must first drown in the ocean of known, only then, and then will you be able to imagine the unknown…

Not everyone is meant to be with someone, and I happen to be one of those. So do I believe in it, yes, do I honestly want any part of it, I’m leaning towards no.

Thank you! 
Honestly? I am! 
No. I believe in loving the idea of love, but I don’t think real love actually exists. I think it’s just hormonal. But I am currently aro so i don’t think my input matters in this convo lol

I want to believe in love but I cannot. I have never experienced such feelings for anyone. I have had crushes, sure, but I have never loved someone in the way people mean it, unless it’s family, where I am lowkey forced to love them.
I don’t think love is our entire life. They say that the ultimate life goal is to et married, have lots of kids, a big house, stable job… Shit like that, which is not my goal in life.

Not me searching “What is Love” rn, lol
Anyway, for myself, nope. I used to think that love’s all about commitment, thinking about someone all the time and willingness to cross your limits but love but nah there’s more to it. Love is sacrifice.
“If you love something, learn to let it go” which I probs will never be able to so the only thing I’ve expressed or will ever do is attraction

it’s nice to believe in things but sometimes i feel like romantic love is just something you see literally everywhere and get tired of easily (:
it sure is pleasant so have someone who understands you- not necessarily ending up in a romantic relationship- like a best friend~
comfort is more important to me ^^ i’m fragile i need people to hug me

I do think love is real, whether it’s romantically or with friends and family.
However, do you believe in these two?
