Introspection On Love

Do you love him? The complication lies not in the answer, but the in the word “love” itself. The feeling of love is very much like a feeling of sickness. Confusing and nauseating all at the same time, if you have ever had a high fever you might have experienced love. As true love does not exist, I will share my thoughts on the subject. A real true love of another being is really a misdirected feeling of love for oneself. I support this by asking you, if you feel that you truly love someone, do you wonder what your future would be like with that person? True love can not be because logic exists, if you are thinking, your thoughts are in one way or another related to your standing in the issue. I will not deny that these statements are being made at the height of my rational egoism era. As egoism has always been a very clear and sensible concept in my mind I can tell you that it relates directly to the concept of love. As everything a person does is somehow beneficial to them, it can easily be seen that love is also a tool used to trade for whatever is most profitable in exchange. This item that is exchanged can vary for different people, for some its money, for others is the emotional commitment called “love” they get in return. Some are happy with meaningless pieces of paper and others with the assurance that someone loves them in return. That is why we love, and as we lie to ourselves we believe that we are in love. Not to say others don’t benefit from this because they do, as two people who are “IN LOVE” both benefit from the assurance that the other person is in love with them, they both benefit from this very beautiful communion. Unlike the Hollywood movies, in real life we make choices based on logic and there is no script to tell us when to kiss. On a final note, the only real love that has a true potential of existence is in narcissism.
