My love rant

I find it idiotic that the term is used so lightly when it’s supposed to be considered
such a strong term. The term itself is being considered useless. For me, I rather show it than say it because saying it could be meaningless, lying. Teenagers believe that they fall in love at such a young age, I do not believe that. I believe that they have feelings for each other. They just call it love. I will not call it hormones; I don’t think that that’s the correct explanation for it.

What is love?

There is no true definition for it because it’s considered different for everyone. People these days lie. They tell someone they love them for a variety of reasons. Some are because they want sex, they want to feel the same way the other person does, or think they do. They say it to make someone else happy but they’re not just lying to them. When you let those words pass your lips, you’re lying to yourself as well.

People seem to get offended when I share my opinion. They like to say that I wouldn’t know because I haven’t been in love. Well, how do they know that?

I do not use that term lightly, I do not blurt out that term because I’m in the heat of a moment and I may not mean it. When it’s said you shouldn’t want to take it back. There are words that I do not say because when I say them I mean them and again, I rather show you I mean it then say that I do.

I haven’t been in love?

Well, I do not tell guys that I love them. If I were to be in a relationship, if I were to have been in 4, I don’t think that I would have said I love you to any of my partners.  I’ve had strong feelings for guys and because I have those feelings, that doesn’t mean that the first explanation of those feelings is love.

I find it annoying when people say that they’ve fallen out of love. Well if love is love then it wasn’t love to begin with, it was just feelings.  I do not believe that love should die because love is supposed to be something huge; it’s a big word that means a lot of things.

To me, saying you love me is saying that you would die for me, you would love me no matter what, you love who I am and who I’ll become. You’ll love the things I do and you’ll never get tired of them, you’ll stay loyal and never lie to me. You want a future with me and if there’s no me then there’s no future.

Love is so big, and it means so much. So when you’re teenagers, you’re telling me you’re capable of those feelings?

Well you may be but at that moment when you’ve barely experienced the world, and you’re feelings could change. You mean that to your first girlfriend, you’re ready to be married?

If there is chaos and there is no chance of both of you living in the end, would you die for that person you claim you love?

I believe that there are different levels of love, you can love a lot of people. You can tell them you love them but when you’re supposed to mean it. From what I mentioned above, if that’s not what you’re feeling then those words shouldn’t be spoken.
Of course everyone will not agree with me and I may not have explained it the way I want but this is an idea of what I mean. There are so many people throwing the word around as if it’s an everyday word like, “hello, or bye.”

I guess I’m still with the idea that it’s a big word, I guess it means something to me. I do not want someone to just tell me they love me if they don’t mean it.
I want them to mean what they say. I’m also not saying you have to be way older to know these feelings but when you’re young I don’t think that you get the meaning, that you understand it.

Yeah, teens may say that they will die without someone in their life, that they’ll never find love again.
They usually do. They usually find someone and treat them the same as the mate they had before. They date, within a week or a few months and they tell them they love them. Then again, when they breakup they say that they’ll die without them.
I’m also not trying to say that you can’t love someone in a short period of time, you can love them but you can’t be truly in love with them.

That’s my opinion.

Author notes

So this is my rant. I do not think I've explained it well but I made an attempt.
I am not bitter.

Jazz: So apparently Brandon still wants to be friends.
Tye: Lol I thought he didn't want to
Jazz: That's what i thought too. Wtf. I semi think he wants to be friends in hopes that we'll get back together eventually
Tye: So he wants to get back together, he was sad when you parted but you don't want to date him again
Jazz: I don't want to date him anymore. I've told him that. But i can't help but feel like there's a hidden motive lying in wait
Tye: hidden motive from him? possibly
Jazz: Probably
Tye: Well I mean you both did tell each other you loved one another, and you're supposed to care about each other, that's not supposed to go away
Tye: So if he actually loved you though even if he didn't you can expect him to miss you when you're gone and if he liked you as a person, he may
Tye: want you back
Tye: there's no surprise there. that's like us breaking up as friends, you'd miss me
Tye: and maybe want me back. if why we broke up wasn't a serious reason
Jazz: Lol i would think breaking up would say that the love died.
Tye: when people say that they fell out of love and that love died, it makes me laugh because that means that the
Tye: "love" was never there.
Tye: means not makes
Jazz: So you don't think love can die or pass?
Tye: Well no. Not to me.
Tye: I don't even call love love, I just pretty much just consider them feelings
Tye: because I hate when people are all like I fell out of love and such, that means that the love never existed in the first place. It wasn't love
Jazz: Lol how would you know when you've never even pursued/had love?
Tye: How do you know I haven't?
Tye: Plus it's my opinion. People sound stupid when they say those things
Jazz: Lol ok
Tye: Okay then. How offensive though for you to pretty much tell me I wouldn't know because you believe I've never bothered with love and such.
Jazz: I feel like that's something you would've mentioned if you had
Tye: I keep my feelings to myself though and it still doesn't matter. I don't have to be one of the idiots to have this opinion
Jazz: Well then have you ever had/pursued love?
Tye: I think I'm too young to have those feelings and I don't believe that they would be correct, that it would be actual love. I have had feelings
Tye: for people though, I just don't call it love
Jazz: So that's a no?
Tye: I just said that I don't call it love.
Jazz: If you wouldn't call it love then its a no
Tye: I wouldn't call it love because when people are in relationships, they say that they love them.
Tye: Then when they break up they say that they're out of love
Tye: Then they get a new relationship then again they call it love, its so stupid
Tye: I've had strong feelings for people, I just don't use that term. That doesn't mean that its not considered anything

Please tell me what you think

  • Loving it!

    Oh my gosh! Finally someone who has the same opinion on about Love! I don't like it when my friends claim they are in love but when their relationship is over they decide they were never in love. Once I made a mistake thinking that I was in love but only had strong feelings for the dude. I love it though! ^_^
