Do you understand love?

Personally, I think Heinlein said it best: "Love is that condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own."
Love is also a choice that you need to make every day.
Next week my wife and I will be celebrating our 20th wedding anniversary. I love her more now than I did back then.

Ah the infinite loop.
Some lyrics should help.
Should I try to hide
The way I feel inside
My heart, for you?
Would you say that you
Would try to love me too?
In your mind
Could you ever be
Really close to me?
I can tell the way you smile
If I feel that I
Could be certain, then
I would say the things
I want to say tonight
But 'til I can see
That you'd really care for me
I will dream
That someday you'll be
Really close to me
I can tell the way you smile
If I feel that I
Could be certain, then
I would say the things
I want to say tonight
But 'til I can see
That you'd really care for me
I'll keep trying to hide
The way I feel inside
Just recognize it and break the cycle.
I think you misread the meme. So I'll point you in the direction; the shirts are pride flags.

Its a cycle. You can break it at any point. You might need to quit dreaming.

Do you know what love is? A chemical. Electrons in your brain sending signals. Are you familiar with Ophiocordyceps unilateralis? It's a fungus that infects ants. It's amazing, really. The spores take over their central nervous systems and force them to climb to a high point, and then the fungus begins to grow up, bursting from the tops of their heads like a branch. And it kills them, of course. All so it can spray new spores over the jungle, infecting more ants. When people say love, that's what I think of.

Good thing cordyceps can't survive in humans due to our higher body temperature.

I like Zizeks idea of love being a violent event. Check the yt video by Julian de madeiros which should explain the idea.
You could also read/ listen to zizek talk about it

Okay. I tried to make a joke with my orientation, but this exchange has wrung all of the humour out.

For future reference this is an incredibly shitty thing to say in the context of the post and thread.
