Real love isn’t selfish. You may have good chemistry that is beneficial to you both, unlike stalkers’ whose is bad for the stalkee. Real love wants the best for the other person, even if it doesn’t include the other person. Definitely not a stalker. All they think about is themselves. Because stalking is truly a form of hatred.

There are several ways to look at it basically we have a stimulus in the brain the needs to be fed it responds to criteria made up by other responses so you would say that your first reaction is patterned for that stimuli after that it grows into a manufactured inner belief system

And what about if I love pizza us that tricking me into eating?
And what if I love the truth is it tricking me into following what’s good?
Maybe it’s not a trick and just an incentive for something that is indeed truly good

Your statement seems to assume there is no reward for the parents. For many people, it is the greatest accomplishment of their life.

I love you, you love me. We’re a happy family with a great big hug and I kiss from me to you. Won’t you say you love me too?

Its hard to explain, out of love come the vices like pride, envy, gluttony, greed, lust, sloth and wrath. These are not good, but more likely evil.

Lol perhaps you mean personal relationships surely not pure love itself which is the exact opposite of vice…I’d slightly agree with you and say that in some cases relationships can distract people from the deeper per suits of virtue in life

Its a great accomplishment to have children and provide for them. I chose not to have children cause i can’t see much love in this world. Maybe my upbringing convinced me to that choice.

I can understand that. I grew up in a world where there was a lot of abuse, not so much at home. But I saw some very bad examples of what love looks like.
