Hello,


today I want to ask you about a rather existential question:


What is the meaning of love?


For me personally the meaning of love is to reproduce and ensure that your family/children are able to do so as well.


Please let me know what your perspective is!


Thanks

People say love is pure, painful, sweet, and dreadful — all at once. The truth is, love is a basic necessity in everyone’s life. Everyone needs to be loved to live a proper and healthy life. Love has various definitions. Ask someone and they will give you their own definition of love. Love is a variety of feelings, emotions, and attitude. For some love is more than just being interested physically in someone, it’s an emotional attachment.

Love is more of a feeling that a person feels for another person. People often confuse love and lust. Love means to be deeply committed and connected to someone or something. The basic meaning of love is to feel more than liking towards someone. It is a bond that two people share.

Love is most definitely not the need to reproduce

Tell that to my friend. He thinks he can't love unless a girl has big titties.

Humans are a social species, so reproduction is only a small part of the story when it comes to love. For many, reproduction has nothing to do with it.
I always hope that the nice ones reproduce.
I agree, after reproductional phase is over you can die. (If the situation of the offspring allows for it)

Not sure. It is a good explaination of his/her/their perspective/definition on/of love, which is interesting, but what is the meaning of it?
The meaning of what she wrote about "the meanings of love", or the meaning of love after what she wrote?

You're asking an ambiguous question, you get ambiguous answers in result. If you have something specific in mind, make it clear, so people would target that area with broader detail..
Okay, more specific question then.

Is there any deeper meaning to love than reproduction and ensuring ones evolutionary continuity? Please make a plausible case.

Example answer:

Yes, the close contact to another human enriches the microbiome.

Once again love has fuck all to do with reproduction. What you are basically saying is people who can't reproduce then can't love or be loved. That's utter bollocks and you know it.

    i thought everybody knew cocktails are like 75% ice
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Yeah but not like this.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    It's not like they're complaining that their Slurpee is 99% ice or something, but if the cocktail calls for "shot of vodka, shot of vermouth, shot of gin, shot of Campari, three shots of juice, squirt of lemon" and ends up being a thimbleful of booze, that's a problem.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    the funny thing is cocktails in norway are only allowed to have 1 20ml shot of booze
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    so..... yeah
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    we're used to only having a thimbleful of booze
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Booo.
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    same thing if you want whisky on the rocks or something, you can't get a double
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    but you could buy as many shots of whisky (or anything else) as you want and ask for a glass of ice and pour them in
  • The Real Jdbye @ The Real Jdbye:
    it's dumb
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Maybe.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    There was a comparison of the number of Ibuprofen poisonings before and after they limited the maximum dosage per box or per pill (i'll look that up). No limit on the number of boxes you can still buy as many as you want, so people argued it was pointless.
  • Veho @ Veho:
    But the number of (accidental) poisonings dropped because drinking an entire package of ibuprofen pills went from "I need a new liver" to "I need a new box of Ibuprofen".
  • Veho @ Veho:
    Here we have ketoprofen that used to be prescription-only because of the risk of toxic dosages, but then they halved the dose per pill and sell them in bottles of six pills apiece instead of twenty and it doesn't need a prescription any more. Yes you can buy more than one bottle but people simply don't.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    Usually accidentally overdose of ibuprofen here is from people taking like cold medicine then ibuprofen for a headache and the combination is over what they need
