ninth scripture. [ anonymous | text ]

[immortalia]

Can anyone here answer a question I have had? It is simply, well...

What is love?

As far as I'm aware it's all highly subjective. So I doubt you'll find any one correct or incorrect answer regardless of which variety you're asking about.

[immortalia]

Then, how do you personally feel on the subject?

[fionnuisce]

I have experience with the familiar variety and arguably that of friendship. Past that, I'm afraid I'm not the person to ask romantic advice from. The concept mystifies and confuses me, and I doubt I could feel that particular emotion if I tried.

[immortalia]

If it is not too prying, why are you discouraging yourself from feeling that particular emotion?

[fionnuisce]

It's not a matter of actively discouraging myself. I just have other things to prioritize over contemplating my emotional capacity and/or relationship status.

[immortalia]

I can respect that.

[fionnuisce]

Back to the matter at hand, I would assume love of the romantic variety to be approximately similar to devotion or loyalty in some more extreme degree.
