I take this class just for fun, I dont plan on being a psychologist. I just like understanding how the human mind works. Evolutionary Psychology is a theoretical and conceptual way of understanding the how the mind thinks not studying through vision, behavior or anything like that, but by applying theories to the subject of the mind. Nothing in this class is based on absolute fact, thats why I enjoy it so much. Sometimes the most off the wall stuff nets the highest score.

Anybody can listen to someone, and judge what "Symptom" or "Disorder" they have because of a 45 minute meeting, but it takes sometime more to dive deep into the human psyche and find the emotional offset that makes someone the way they are.


So Ive decided to use my most famous topic as the basis for my next essay.

Love: Why do humans find it necassary? What some consider to be the greatest feeling in the world, can also be turned around into the worst feeling in the world. Ask anyone who's had a broken heart. The first thing they say is "I'll never love again. Its not worth the pain of a broken heart."
Yet people continue to open themselves up to it. Since the beginning of human record, love has always been used in everyday life. Whether love is referred to as a Goddess, like in Mythology...Or love referred to as even a Holiday, like as Valentines Day. Even now, Marriage is based on love. Marriage used to be nothing but a courtship that benefited two people. A king would find the most beautiful wife as a trophy. A scribe would find a poet as his inspiration. It was a partnership. But now its something more.
Two people dont have to have ANYTHING in common to be in love anymore. Its just the feeling of it that lulls people into something like an engagement. And 85% of the time, they realize down the road that it was never love, it was a mistake. Then comes the divorce.


Here's the true definition of love: A disease A series of electrochemical processes in the brain. Yet it is still the foundation of most civilization. Adam and Eve reproduced in the minds of Christians, to start the world. To the Greeks, Eros, the God of romantic and sexual love, was the bind that drove Gaia of the Earth and Uranus of the Sky to get together, creating this world.

Its a funny fact, but the human brain decides within the first minute of meeting someone whether or not they're going to be able to love them. If you dont love someone after knowing them for years, and then you decide to suddenly marry them after a long relationship(Because you guys were best friends), then there is "Chemically speaking" no possible way that you're in love.

But its still all chemicals. Even the scent of love. Here's an exerpt I found on a study about pharamones.

"The ABC News show, "20/20," sent pairs of twins out on speed dates to test whether pheromones (scent molecules humans emit that are believed to attract other humans) might play a role in attraction. Twins were given a fragrance to wear, one with added pheromones, and one without. It was a blind test, so neither twin knew who had been doused in pheromones. The results were positive in favor of the molecules' effectiveness. One female who wore pheromones had nine out of 10 guys say they wanted to see her again. Her identical twin attracted only five of the same men."[/i]

These were identical twins. Some would say that maybe the 2nd twin had a better personality, so she got more of a response. But thats just another theory of course,

Even sexual attraction.....When a man and a woman engage in intercourse, each goes through an arousal stage. Nerve impulses from the brain cause their heart rates to increase and dilate peripheral blood vessels. They feel warm, and....other things happen as well....

So where does this emotional feeling come from, that people created? Valentine's Day, romantic movies.... Its nothing but an instinct. Like being hungry..... Seriously, when will you learn that you're not forced to love, you force yourself...
If there is no such thing as love, what's up with the TBCxKonan thing in your sig?

/jk


Love is, as you and I have stated in the second topic, "just a bunch of chemicals". But that's what makes it important, because all things are made up of matter, even the chemicals.

A person is really just a bunch of cells, but aren't they also more than that? Your arguing proves that you have developed an opinion, and a personality. These are in turn developed in your brain, by said chemicals and cells.

I do not force myself to love, I give everything, all of my chenicals and cells, to that love. To open up, to bloom and feel free, that's a wonderful feeling, isn't it?

I base all of my decisions around love, happiness, and contentment, and I live a happy, content life. I imagine there are many others who cannot say the same.

It's your choice not to love, I won't stop you. But I will, as long as I live, work for the happiness of those who remnain close to my heart and love, because when those certain people are happy, I am happy. And even if those people leave, die, or hate me, I will be content. I will do my part.

Perfection is not stagnation. You, I, and the rest of the world are ever-growing and ever-changing. Love is that little cherry-on-top, the last peice of the puzzle that you don't need to finish. Take it if you want. In that sense, love, or even lack of love is perfect. It's your choice.

We are free to do whatever we want to do. That includes choosing whether or not to love.

One final edit:

Ok, that bit about "85% aren't really in love" is BS, and though I'm hesitant to hate on it, that's not tested; I'm willing to bet that you just pulled that one out of your hat.

You're a smart guy, but you're really depressing. I'd like to request that you not make another one of these, they're all kinda the same idea.

Was their voice your favorite sound in the world? Did you feel better whenever you were around them? Were you better when you were around them? Is your greatest wish in the world for them to be hapy? And is/was your second greatest wish to be with them for all eternity? To be there to share the good times, and comfort them through the bad? To die at their side, if it came to that?

When you can honestly answer "yes" to all of those questions, then you can tell me your love for them was true.

Love is the name of a series of complex emotions. They make up the complicated thing called love. No one will feel it the same way. It is to varying in complexities to have each form given its own name so it is simply...love.

Well....out of a study of 20 people, 17 proved my theory. Its not like its the full population, Im just going by statistical analysis.


As for them being the same idea, this was completely different. The last was about emotional feeling, faking whats there, friendships, and all that. This one is about psychology, chemical imbalances, pheramones, and other factors. I am actually doing a huge thesis for school about why love doesn't exist. I keep making these topics to get more opinions and knowledge on the subject.

So if it was you who down repped me for making these topics, that was a pretty low move. But I dont think you're the type to do that. But to whoever dude, oh well, expect more in the future.
