Yes,Voltaire was absolutely right.
But why love is so painful as we hear in media and else where ?
Because what ever we term as love is nothing but ego play.True genuine love is so rare.People love others based on their socio-economic value and value they could add to their otherwise boring and mundane lives.
Most people love based on looks and how much they can flaunt them in social circles. Most people ask out in two three meetings only!
Further we usually love those who do not value us more. Ever wondered that why the girl you are following for months is so attractive ? Yes because she thrashes your ego and self worth by not giving you a fuck (in both senses!).
We love those who do not validate our ego,our presence instantly. This is the basis of all seductive techniques. In order to get back our self worth we try to facilitate them.
Hence no love is genuine and always guided by ego.Sooner or later, ‘who is the boss’ question creeps in and relationship drift away.
Ever wondered why you always tend to become emotional slave of those who never give you a fuck. Yes because we derive our validation from them and we keep running to get it back! Thus love in today’s era is just a validation seeking device and is just our insecurities in action.
Pro tip : Want to get rid of this loop. Practice meditation.In two weeks your mind shall be calmer and you will get better. For videos , search Osho in youtube. You will be amazed by the results. You will then get into healthier relationships with less insecure and egoistic people. Love is attachment with others while meditation is love with oneself.
