The way I see it, just my two cents, it's so much easier and more socially acceptable to dispense syrupy fluttery "love". I think that's where the confusion comes in about what Love really is. It's not butterflies and lollipops but it's not hammers and nails either. It's doing whatever it takes to influence and generate the betterment of the one(s) being loved. It's applying reality to a relationship and teaching that. Even if it means you end up alone, hated or dead. That's true love and it ain't easy. In my opinion, AI is ever going to be able to understand true love because robots don't have souls. LOL. Thanks for the thought provoking post.

It would! I think at least part of the human confusion about love is that it only thinks of love as an emotion. I think it also meant to be used as a verb in how we approach each other and ourselves. Love is how we act with compassion towards one another as well as ourselves.
