Our culture believes in romantic love, based on feelings that come from endorphin release in the brain, these feelings have been proven to fade over time. Some other cultures believe in arranged marriages based on star alignment and how compatible the couple is by age, interests, etc. In both instances they are allowed to leave each other yet our culture and it's romantic love has higher divorce rates and more unhappy marriage rates. So I believe in romantic love as much as I believe in astrological match making. Which is also dumb, but they take other things into effect for the arrangements.

Owwin Kuzodav Decavolty The act of sex itself is merely sex. Procreation. Helping the species, if you will. Nothing to do with love. No. Sex can deal with love. It doesn't have to. But it sure as Hell can. Love can exist without sex. People love their families, but only a select few have sex with them. Sex can exist without love. Prostitution. Sex and love can overlap, but it is not a cause and effect relationship.Not always true. You could love someone, and as an extension of that love engauge in sex with them for a greater bond. I'd like to point out that saying you can love your family and not bone them is bullshit as well. As we have biological stoppers to keep ourselves from ******** our relatives and ******** up the genetics of our children. Also: With friends. Just because you love them doesn't mean your attracted to them to bone them.

You love your family, but your biology stops you from being attracted to them. Romantic love was created based on the feelings of the emotion love, and the want for sex. They are two separate things that overlap.

Romantic love is a way to explain the feelings of sex and caring together, just like religion explained creation before we knew how that happened.

Love in not a singular emotion. I love Kuzo in a different way from the way I love my girlfriend, or Hot Pockets.
There is no such thing as romantic love, I would posit. There IS a kind of love that you feel for an individual that you could classify as romantic love.

Every emotion overlaps, but it isn't some mystical once in a lifetime bond that makes fairy tales come true. It is the drive of sex, and the feelings of caring.
