Throughout the ages, mankind has been troubled by questions left unanswered. There are those questions that, with perseverance and great intellectual curiosity, we have been able to answer. Questions like. "What causes the seasons to change?" and "Why does the sun rise and set?" While we have been able to answer questions like this, there are the questions that are more difficult to answer, such as, "Where does the term 'ginger' come from when referring to someone with orange hair?" and "What came first, the chicken or the egg?" However, through some logical thinking and self-inquiry, one of these questions have been answered, "Why do people fall in love?"
There are many theories that pertain to this. Theories like, people want to feel wanted and what better way to get that than 'being in love' with someone? Or possibly because they're scared to spend the rest of their lives alone. Also, there is the theory that people fall in love with the idea of love. It is also believed that people fall in love so that they can fulfill their sexual desires AS desired.
Logic would dictate that it's because people want that one special person that they get to spend the rest of their lives with. This would probably be what most people might say their reasoning for falling in love might be.
After much analysis, however, it has been inferred that the reasoning is simply because that one individual makes a person happy. This has been widely agreed upon by those who might not believe in love. However, surveys say that people say they fall in love simply because they care deeply about an individual. It is believed that they could not come up with something batter to say and are trying to hide this fact that they are not totally sure why they fall in love.

I think it is wrong that for people to search for love just to be happy. If you can't make yourself happy then you have some issues that need to be resolved. It's ok if you fall in love and that person adds to your happiness,but to completely fulfill your happiness? I don't call that love. I call that a number of things such as insecurities, instabilities, inabilities to be satisfied by yourself and accomplishments you have failed to complete.
Man kind "period" is troubled."personally" I don't think that is going to change until we are all dead."So" keep hopeing Candice.
I think there is a good time to be in love. When you become someone's best friend, not only their boyfriend/ girlfriend, that is love. I don't like how in high school you see someone get together, and they say their in love after a week of dating. In our society it's so common, that people are beginning to the that love isn't real. Because of those who fall too fast. I see a lot of people getting in a relationship just to show off who they are with. Or as a trophy. So I agree with your question fully. No one, not even me, understands the real meaning of love, until they have actually experienced it. Meeting someone, being with them for a week, and getting married, is not love. We need to go deeper into a relationship before loving someone.
I think people who try to fulfill their happiness instead of falling love is kinda rude. Just to fulfill your happiness, it's like your trying to convince yourself your love. I loved your theory Candice's. I think your pretty much right on your theories.
I love this post! So much of this is true and applies to like 90% of people. Great points made.
Candice I love what you said. I believe there is no such thing as falling In love. I think you can care for someone and say you're in love. In reality my question is what is love?
I like this blog a lot Candice. Most poeple will not write there opinion logically, but more emotionally on this specific subject. Now I'm not saying that that your opinion in this blog did not have any emotion, I'm simplistically saying that there is a good amount of logic which therefor makes what you are trying to talk about more realistic and fascinating to those who may not know you as well. I'm very impressed and am sad you are leaving my class godd job and goodbye.
Candice, i agree with what you a lot and i also agree with Chris! I honestly think that the truth is that people are in love with the idea of being in love. And sometimes people just want it so bad that they go for it any chance they have. I feel like love is what Chris said, that person being your best friend and even more. And a lot of the times people mistake it for so many different things, like the difference between love ands sex. Love is just something a lot of us will never completely understand, but you should know when its real.
