Discussions on Love
This is proof that I'm taking far too many biology and anthropology courses.
Love:
A primitive biological desire to be with and mate with a person who's genes you view as desirable, in order to create offspring that will have a superior chance of passing on their (and consequently, your) genes. It's all biology people, it's all natural selection and evolution at its finest. And we thought that humans were above all that. Yet it still operates in us, when we choose the person with the long legs, the built chest, the intelligence. You don't love the person, you love their genes.
Now am I deluded or what? Bitter..? Never. Maybe forgetful... Loving someone romantically has been far removed from me. And i miss it. I miss the ideal, the romance, the living in a dream. Love sucks.
