Because love is a cheap trick played by nature to ensure reproduction, it's not the perfect emotion people want to believe it is. But I guess that's a whole other debate that would be off topic here lol

Uh, so, you don't love any of your family members? Or friends? Love isn't just about reproduction. .-.
And it is pretty much the best thing ever when you find someone you really care about.

Oh you guys, still trying to put standards on social interactions. Let's argue over how many best friends someone should have too.

I've come to believe love is different for everyone else. Everyone has their own definition of it. For me, love is a colossal amount of affection and attachment for someone. Which I've been through times before, and am currently in right now.

Holk tries to be funny and ends up sounding like a horrible pilot for a british sitcom.

Having failed to understand Holk's post, I'm going to clear something up with this Laguna fellow.
Here's something for you: humans have one of the largest times spent in childhood in the entire animal kingdom. That's because we have to be brought up gradually to be able to use our dang fantastic comparatively massive brains. We are born weak and fragile and fucking stupid, and we are raised over years to become barely independent beings that thrive because of our interaction and close ties with others.
Why does this relate to what we're talking about? Well, who's going to raise this idiot for the 20 or so years they need to be raised for? The mother's not going to be able to handle such a ridiculous task coupled with her life and other children. Who else does this baby belong to? It's fucking dad. Yeah.
So humans stayed in couples for the children, and learned that it made a social connection that evolved into the emotion we know as love, and groups that we now call families. A perfectly logical evolutionary reason for why people should stay together.
Now, the polygamy thing is a little different. Think about this; back in days when there were NO contraceptives, polygamy (or, fucking anything that gives you a look as animals know it as, and our ancestors knew it as) meant lots of babies. Mothers had to raise these things as their brains got bigger and because of this brain thing it took a lot of time and effort. So the child's father was inevitable brought into the mix. If the father kept making babies and then have to help raise them, he realized that maybe he'd be better off being with one female.
Another evolutionary reason for monogamy, right there.
So, if the father make lots of babies and the mothers couldn't handle raising them to their full capacity, we wouldn't have been nurtured to the point where we needed to be, and in turn we wouldn't have our super-brains and consequently would not have conquered the planet. The fucking duck or something would've taken over.

Where are his computers?
Monogamy's got the entire history of civilization as its score; what's yours?

Not entirely true. During the age of the Homo habilis, they still had the largest brains but merely acted out of instinct and not reason despite even then being the dominant species. You know what a species does that acts out of instinct? They fuck. A lot.

Actually it's more the evolution of society that brought on this 'necessity' since parents not only have to raise the kid alone but they have to provide all the resources for it to live. Which is only the case in humans. [Probably wrong with that last line, but it's true of other apes]

With other primeapes, especially Bonobos, they like sex and they fuck around alot. Yet, none of the children are neglected because the whole group raise the kids as one. This isn't just primeapes either, they are just the closest to us in the sense of evolution. So since this is a more effective method imo of raising children, how did we get to the point where the human mother had no choice but to be self reliant and take care of her child alone?

@Scalinger - Shut up.
@Laguna - Western society evolved in such a way that people wanted others to share what they wanted so they could take it, but didn't share what they wanted so they wouldn't lose it.
As such, raising a child is the burden of its parents or whoever is crazy enough to help, and fun things like tax are the responsibility of everyone.

The rule I use in these situations is "never take a post about love seriously from a person with an anime avatar, since it's most likely skewed it some way".

Which is why I won't say anything else. :V
