Why is it so important to find Love?

Majority of the people are looking for Love. Their happiness and sorrow seems to be hinged on whether they find Love or Not.

To find Love we go through frustration, anxiety, excitement and sorrow. Even when we do find someone it's the same story. Frustration, Anxiety, fear and Joy. Later when you loose that Love, it's same again.

Is this all what life is about? Live and die in Love?

Is there more to life?

@Teirdalin Thank you for sharing this. It gives something to think about.

@Renkon A doctor friend I know suggested Maslow's hierarchy of needs to me a while back, and it really is a useful reference.
I have no idea why there’s a need to always live and die for love and all great stories start and end in love but somehow I feel that love attaches a certain amount of validity or value to our existence and we feel we have a ‘cause’ to live or die and that stimuli is provided by love.

I think most people are looking for satisfaction and one form of it is love which can become much more important at some periods in someone's life than at others. Maybe it's just a way of nature to push people to procreate and take care of their offspring or their kind in general.

@CrazyMusicLover That's sensible way understand Love. Nature insurance for species to survive.

This question is too deep to even answer. For me, i have fears. Fear of being alone is the major thing. Another one is the feeling of replicating what you experienced when you were young and vice versa.

@Wishbreaker Fear of being alone is real. Only when you experience it, you how it feels.
May I ask, what you meant by "replicating what you experienced when you were young and vice versa."

@Renkon what i mean was, if you received the love you need when you were young, most of us wanted that same thing for our "own family". On the other hand if you didnt experience those, you want those to be felt by thr next person next in line.. not sure if im making sense. Im tipsy while writing this

It's not essential but it feels good until it doesn't, lol. That being said, not everyone is going to view love the way you do. If you love someone romantically, you shouldnt constantly feel frustration, anxiety, fear, and joy. That says there is something wrong.

everyone wants it, it is a human basic need i believe, some feel deprived and starved of love so they go out and do desperate/crazy things.
Renkon · 36-40, M
@ravenhill But should it engulf the very existence of us? I was wondering should we make it very purpose of life? Or is it difficult to think above it?

Maybe instead of looking for it, we should BE it.
Renkon · 36-40, M
@Magenta That is an amazing thought. That is true wisdom. Thank you.

@Renkon Thank you. Not always an easy task but it's a good mindset to take on.

Dude, from my perspective, you nailed it.
Renkon · 36-40, M
@originnone Thank you. It is a thought I too further relevant when I came here and read the posts. So many people are in pain due to or lack of Love.
its not the end all be all, but, it does feel a bit better to be able to share the joys of life with someone else. that being said, i was also pretty happy when i was single.
Cause love is awesome.. true love anyway.. not the fake backstabbers and gold diggers and catfish we all find instead 😏

@SStarfish Does 'True Love' exist? I think good humans exist may be.

Problem lies in ‘looking ‘ sometimes …
Allow love to come to you ….

Love doesn’t come easily , unfortunately …

Yes there is more to life than love ..
Maybe they're looking to be accepted. If they don't feel accepted at home they're going to search for it.
@Spoiledbrat Often the simpler, yet feeling with depth holds more towards... good expression, I guess the younger generation has a chart for it. 🙄 What I want a Powerpoint explanation, sigh.
