Is there really something called “love”? I am not speaking about the love you feel for your children, siblings or parents, but the one in the dating/relationship sense.

Is it a word that is simply thrown around to help you get laid? Or do you just say it to your partner because you have reached a point in your relationship where it is expected. I know that I have said those words quite a couple of times, but looking back now, I realise that I never understood the meaning of it and I still don’t. I said those words to my partner because he expected it not because I actually understood or felt the emotion.

To most people, love is that encompassing, life changing thing that you should hold on to strongly. What is the definition of love? What if what you feel is just strong affection or lust or infatuation? How can you tell the difference?

I ask because I am confused by the different ways we throw this word around. I think love is a myth, like those myths of heroes who achieved impossible deeds, we probably invented the idea of love just to comfort ourselves that there is this perfect illusion that we have to attain.
