why does it feel like nobody of the opposite sex is capable of really loving each other
>>
>>84440213

Because just as species compete, so do sexes. Intersex competition. Males and females have the same directive of reproducing but have to go about it differently and also have evolved different biological platforms for achieving that goal which leads to conflict.

are you capable of loving another person?
>>
society is breaking down that's all
>>
>>84440213
because love doesnt exist and the only reason men and women got together in the past was almost entirely for survival reasons. we dont live in that world anymore, we live in a world where everyone and everything they do is disposable
>>
>>84440228
such beautiful creatures
>>84440231
dunno
>>84440248
why do you think that is specifically?
>>84440255
how do you deal with this?
>>
>>84440287
>dunno
then maybe there's your problem?
>>
>>84440287
>how do you deal with this?

there is no dealing with it, we are wired for a world that doesnt exist. even the successful normies can barely handle it because theyre drugged out of their mind on all types of psych meds or they drink alcohol or use drugs.

well, I think I am but I don't want to be too presumptuous

>>84440213
question, how would you tell two beings truly love each other?
>>
>>84440303
ehhhhhhh
it feels like lots of people are together for the sake of not wanting to be alone, as opposed to genuinely liking each other. also a lot of relationships in currentyear (probably before then, too) seem awful self-serving on both ends, and people still seem confused as to why they're unhappy. or well. they seem sorta happy. it's just bizarre.
so to answer your question, I don't know how to articulate how to tell if two beings love each other, but I can tell when they don't, and it often seems to be the case.
what do you think?
>>
>>84440287
>why do you think that is specifically?
Because yin and yang, these things that appear to be in harmony are really in conflict.
>>
>>84440213
Because your concept of love is retarded and unrealistic
>>
>>84440298
>well, I think I am but I don't want to be too presumptuous
people are capable of loving others, but they just don't because relationships are mostly transactional. and, sadly enough, love isn't enough to keep a relationship going. there are bills to pay, responsibilities to take care of. you can love a person who doesn't care in the slightest about you... there are so many possibilities. i have loved two women in my life, and only one of them loved me back. i was used for attention for a long time. many people go through this too, and then they stop trying to find love. i think life just makes people feel like love matters way less.

love is difficult to tell because we all perceive and feel it differently, but there are some common signs we can look out for

>love is acceptance
when you look at your partner as they're absolutely disheveled, hair looking like they just held a live wire, gunk in the corner of their eyes, yawning like crazy and with that all too familiar "morning breath", and you still think they're fucking beautiful just like that, there's some love there
when they do something that normally annoys/bothers everyone else but you find it amusing, cute even, you know there's more than just affection there
>love is patience
when they do something that irks you, purposefully or otherwise, and you don't feel any hostility toward them (maybe a tinge of playful anger), something else is going on
when you take your time to walk them through their fears and anxieties in their own time, their own pace, and are just content to be there with them, love is nearby
>love is understanding
when you can tell what each other are thinking with just a glance, or when you just know when something's bothering them without them even saying anything, there might be love between you two
when they stumble over their words while describing something but are unable to put it in words correctly, yet you still get the message, you know your bond is stronger than that

anyway, i could go on all night about what love is, but it's a bunch of things combined
i wouldn't go so far as to claim i can tell when people are in love or not, because it's a process
love matures and intensifies over time when cultivated right, and comes in many forms

i do agree with your take though, it seems like people forgot how to love these days
like everyone is just another product in a display shelf, disposable and insignificant in the long run
sigh...

why is the opposite sex important, do you think this applies to same sex relationships/friendships?
>>
>>84440213
>why does it feel like nobody of the opposite sex is capable of really loving each other
Because foids have their choice of Chad cock, get run-through, and ignore the rest of men. Because non-Chad men are rightfully bitter about being incel. We just want 'our turn' with the sex, and we don't even get that now. Even Chads hate foids for their vapidness. Only normcucks and oofy-doofies seem to even like foids now. Loving a modern foid is a recipe for an inevitable heart-break. Let alone the eternal divorce-rape problem with marriage.

I honestly can't say, because I don't know enough about same-sex relationships.
but what I do know is that with most heterosexual pairings, they seem to be overly transactional and they seem to openly dislike the other. it's even a common cultural tradition for husbands and wives to complain about their spouse- regardless of their shortcomings, why would someone be with someone they openly dislike?
that's what I don't understand.
>>
>>84440348
do you feel this has gotten worse in recent years?
are you still with her?
>>
>>84440213
They are it's just that people expect too much.
You cannot receive the same type of love from someone who isn't the same type of biological platform.

what makes you say that?

people have been saying that society is breaking down for ages. what's really happening is transformation, and it is a cause of a lot of confusion and stress. for sure. but 'tis not the end

You should see that the only reason you're guilt tripping anon because "he can't love another person" (bullshit) is because you have similar problems with empathy and think that love is a chore, and you don't see that it's valid for a person to struggle with relationships in a world where quite frankly pretty much everyone struggles with relationships
