Philosophy of Love?

If love is obviously a passion, one which leaves no room
for any real logic based on certainty, and it is comprised
of a mutual understanding of a fictitious axiom that others
have set before others, then is love really just an
attempted altruistic, and mimetic, lie?

I'm not talking about unconditional love for one another in
the family or community sense, but love as a relationship
between two people that involves raw emotions in compliance
with mutual exclusivity. Do any of the great philosophers of
the past write on this?

It seems that true love (riding off into the sunset, happily
ever after) are just offshoots of someone else's past
experiences with an unreal state of affection for another
person.

love is like being high 24/7, you see things you won't
normally do, in all senses.

that's why, to me, it's dangerous, it's just a 'lovely' game
of madness. unless you're a psychopath, you will always be
waiting to lose in the end. It's sad, because it seems love
should have some transcendental capabilities, like the two
lovers actually being able to live happily ever after and so
forth. But we all should know, in our right minds that the
world isn't like that at all.

Nothing really, just disappointed with my understanding of
false love relative to my situation, timing, etc. It seems
like i'm only smart at the worst times in my life, if that
makes any sense.

yeah it makes sense, but your apparent "smartness" only in
times of "bad" is just a result of your situation.

when i'm happy (usually when i'm in a happy relationship), i
can't make music for shit. when i'm depressed or down, i do
the best stuff i've ever been known for (not that i am
known, but you know what i mean).

but i'm sure i don't really need to say that to you, you do
tracks yourself - i'm sure you've experienced this.

Yeah, i like being in that state of experiencing personal
successes after being sad or idle for periods of time. I
guess it's just annoying that i allowed myself to take the
risk which i knew from the start was an attempt at achieving
blind happiness. It's exaclty like a mirage.

I guess making tracks is like making children, you're making
something which you're trying to find pleasure in, so the
art of making music is a totally differnt form of passion
than relationships, so trying to make music with the same
vigor when you're in a good relationship might not be as
important because you're already satisfied. That's probbably
why people are so interested in the coorelation between
creativiy and depression.

I would have thought you might have had something more
enticing to contribute to this thread.

in short, being love is just a word to describe being in or
out a sensation.

i think it's more poetic. and also more musical.

that's a good way to look at it, a song's compositions is
full of different tensions, dynamics and uniqueness

Takes two to love - it's not unitary. Love is a division,
based purely on the selfish fulfilment of ones desires. When
one fails to offer what the other wants, so-called love
dies.

being in a happy relationship made me do super happy and
passionate music very easily. i couldnt follow the "its a
lie",
but its definitely very much illogical and blindening
so it might just be an illusion that feels most realistic.
i like it very much, it gives me faith.

love is a big pile of donkey baws.

when your in it and everything is nice its fine, yes you
find yourself doing, as mentioned, things you wouldnt dream
of. but its in doin these things that loves creates a more
substatial rounded individule.

dunno bout other people here, but i rarely find someone whos
persona captures me to the point of being this daft, in fact
i'd say theres only been one. and yes that feeling of
completeness, that with 'the one' your life is good and you
will become, together, something amazing is a dizzying
feeling, but like, it wont last forever ken.

and when it is over, love has a an after taste of bitrex
that stains like a tattoo.

recycle, fucking is not love, fucking is fucking.
