@SW-User The nature of a human is to find a mate might not be nesserely to produce life for some but for pleasure but on a biological level it's an instinct for reproducing we find a mate and chemical compounds produce hormones that can make us horny and want to mate but It can also develop this feeling we call love but in simple cave man turns it's a survival instinct to find a mate and want to stay with them for a feeling of security .

@Virtually Thank you.

@cloudgirl1 I agree I say make as meany babies as possible!

@SW-User 👍🏻

@SW-User Ah. And lets not forget the power of touch and hugs.

@SW-User But that would suffice with procreating. Why love? Why that one feeling that you can possess for someone above all else?

@SW-User 1. First Comes as attraction. 2. Then. after that, because of our need to belong as humans (since we are newborns we need affection otherwise we don't survive)... as we grow up we become more independent, but we still want to love and feel loved after all, that's why we actually end up and falling in love, and it grows to something stronger depending on the circumstances.

But remember... the first atraction is a thing to preserve the specie, to be stronger with another person... to build a relationship.

So all in all, a mixture of physiological needs and instinct.

@SW-User Fair enough. :)

@SW-User 💙🤗 Thank you . I wish he saw it the same as you do lol.

@SW-User Sometimes, people are so blind. They can only see things in hindsight.💙

@SW-User 💙💙💙

@SW-User 🤣🤣🤣 worse experience I had in a restaurant hahahaha....

@SW-User That's disgusting. I hope you are not planning to go back to this restaurant ever again.

@SW-User 🤢 never

@MasterofNone Ah. That's a good answer.

@MushroomFaerie Weren't they always conditioned? The dynamics of relations.

@SW-User conditioned based on where when who you were born to, yes. All human packs would have had different dynamics but the monogamis life long partnership expectation many people have is not realistic. Humans before civilisation had more than one partner within their group. Alpha males had more than one woman (those women were all good with each other and would have worked together but if a new woman came along they would have given her a hard time) the betas pretty much had no women and based to tracing back dnas woman also had more than one partner (they were all from the pack, everybody would have known everybody else) relationships ended and new ones began. Marriage was actually created by men to ensure that all men had at least one woman.

@SW-User What about our intellect would influence this, do you think?

@SW-User I think intellect comes in by how we interpret our emotions on a personal level.

@SW-User Self awareness and what we need. Okay. :)

@SW-User Elaborate why?

@SW-User I think it's both natural and decision..

@SW-User 👀 Try.

@Classified Aww!

@BabyLonia Interesting to think about. Or even find out, lol.

@SW-User it is

I still think you'd enjoy the writings of Alice Roberts, especially her anthropological ones

@BabyLonia I probably will. :) When it calls for me, I'll answer it. :P

@MethDozer So like something that evolved from a togetherness during the hunting and gathering period to something more possessive?

@SW-User I think so. The actual concept of love I think is something that evolved with our more complex brains ability to engage in reason and other more abstract and complex thought processes.

We developed as most other mammals to form social groups and find mates, then as we evolved we became able to turn that into love from our ability to empathise and think abstractly.

@MethDozer I believe so as well.
