Love is what every human being craves for; whether it be romantic love, the love of a friend, or the love of family. We desire the tenderness and affection that comes with real love. That sense of belonging, understanding, support, attraction; someone to be intimate with in all aspects of our life.
Humans create love out of strong, personal bonds. Love gives us the assurance that we are not alone in this world. We use love to drive us in what we do in life. It drives us to connect soulfully with another. Love gives us reassurance and purpose in life. Without the fulfillment of feeling loved or loving something else, a person does not have the motivation to achieve anything.
A love between family members is much easier because there is a bond created in those types of relationships from the very beginning. Love between romantic partners must be built from scratch and it takes work.
I think we all want love, just sometimes it’s hard to admit in a way. Some people are embarrassed to actually say they want love. But really it shouldn’t be that way, because everyone has that same desire for love. And there is a difference between ‘loving’ a person, and being ‘in love’ with someone.
