Do you believe in love?

You forgot the primary Huey Lewis reference, the actual title of this thread

Heh. Yeah.
Gotta slip "Power of love" in there somewhere too, and close it out with "If this is it .." when it all goes sideways.
Now you got me thinking about all those cool songs that came out in the 80's.

A pretty simple, yes or no question. I will give only two options, but an unwritten third would be: "I believe in love, but do not believe it's something I want
aspire to or think is good for me".

Let's see how the divide between romantics and cynics is on this site. And if people actually want to chase romance abroad, or just p***y and pleasure. I have a feeling that a LOT of folks here are very, very jaded and cynical. I would like to see how many, in terms of percentages. Or if there's still some hopeful people and optimists out there. Some idealism.

What your answer will be likely will boil down to how you view women in general. Are they all the same, or do you believe there's differences depending on what country and culture they hail from. The whole NAWALT-thing. Have you guys Redpilled yourself out of romance, yet?

I voted "Yes" because I do believe that love between men and women does exist, and that's speaking as a man who was once in love many years ago.

Where I differ from most is that I don't believe in looking for love, or that my life is incomplete without being in love with someone. Many people simply cannot comprehend that a person can be content with their life without being emotionally attached to a specific person of the opposite sex.

Exactly, a lot of people think they are "incomplete" without being in a relationship with someone.

Some people will use the term, "Your better half."

But didn't Huey finally throw in the towel, when he said he was simply happy to be stuck with someone?

A more interesting question would be: do females really believe in love? I suspect the answer is no.

Yea, "your better half", as they call it. Whatever.

I have seen women truly love a man, but that man is always an unsavoury character. Serial killers, womanizers, criminals, street thugs, verbally or physically abusive men, drug addicts, ect, ect.

I have never seen a woman genuinely love what I would consider a decent man.

When people talk about love between male and female they almost always think that love should last forever and that you can love only one person at the time or else it is not true love

There is nowhere that says you cant love multiple persons at the same time (I assume most people lover their mum and dad, sister and brother), so why cant you love 2 girls at the same time? Women will argue till they are blue in the face how you can only love just one person or else

Love doesn't have to last forever, some love for 5 minutes while others can be in love for 50 years. Who is to say the longer relationship lasts its more real or genuine?

Love is real but it can end anytime and there is no limit how many people you can love, its just feeling or emotion like hunger, thirst, anger, happiness

For many men, don't bother with this stuff, just bang some hoes and enjoy life.

You never know how long you'll live. There's no need for this silent vigil ... waiting for 'the one'.

It's really just that simple.

I absolutely believe in love. The only thing is, you just have to make sure you pick a woman who is capable of it and wants it. There are lots of jaded women out there who don't believe in love. But much worse than that, there are many women who enjoy stomping on hearts of men because their souls are dead. Learn to recognize these women. Most of them are openly disobedient.

Depends on how you define love.
