How does a person NOT believe in love?


Question Posted Tuesday January 1 2008, 7:34 pm

Call me crazy, but I think it's absurd that some people do not believe in love. After seeing all the good things people can do for each other and just seeing the love people have for each other everyday, I just can't believe it. Maybe it's because I'm a Christain and I've simply been raised to and have witnessed all kinds of love myself. But can someone please give me some insight?

People base their beliefs on their personal interchanges and experiences...if someone's had their heart broken over and over again then maybe they'll be a bit cynical about love, or believe it's not possible for them.

Sometimes people just give up on love altogether to save themselves the pain of relationships. Or maybe said person had parents who divorced or fought constantly.

Everyone doesn't feel the same way about everything and they never will. If they did world peace would be possible...and maybe we'd be able to do something about global warming and save the polar bears.

Not everyone has grown up in the environment you obviously were very lucky to grow up in. Not everyone has happy loving parents or a good life or home environment.

It's sad that some people have given up on love, but that's just the way it is. Sometimes it's easy to lose faith.

My perspective is that when people have been in such terrible situations, their faith in love begins to wane. It's hard to imagine, but people that have been through so much believe that whole-hearted love is impossible.
I'm unsure how people arrive at such conclusions, but I've sure met a whole lot of people who think love is overrated and a huge misunderstanding.
These people, I think, are wrong, and need to dig a little deeper to find real love.

Well, I believe in love. =]

Maybe they grew up in a family without love, you know? Maybe they`re parents died. Maybe they`re parents divorced. Maybe they were abused by their family. All kinds of things along the lines of that could`ve happened.
Or sometimes the people that someone truly loved hurt them & they thought that they would never find anyone better or were just simply hurt too much by it, so they stopped believing.

Hope I helped. =]

I believe in love, just to make it clear.
I think they do not because they already have enough accomplishments and things going for them in life, and they really do not feel it necessary to need love. It does probably in someway have to do with religion, but I really think everyone needs at least some love. They may believe in love within family, which is like..."mommy i love you...", and stuff, but not with an outsider who could become a companion.
hope i didnt confuse you?
happy new year!

I completely agree with you. I think that the people that say that have thought they were in love, and then had that person hurt them. It's a temporary statement for someone thats been through that or just have not experienced it yet. I believe in love though! And everyone should.

There are alot of good things about love which make you love it lol .. but there are also alot of bad things. Like when people cheat or hit eachother or always argue etc. Some people may have been through something like that too many times and decided to give up on love : Good luck in tryna figure it out haha x
