People owned? No. Pwned? Yes
And love isn't an illusion, the hormones inducing the good feelings around certain persons are quite real. Oxytocin and endorphin FTW!
Precisely. And, like any mental chemical, they could change at any moment, and both you and your significant other could utterly despise each other.
Love is not an illusion in that it doesn't exist. The security that comes with love, the mutual caring-- the things which make love meaningful--are illusory because they're determined entirely by random variables beyond human control which have no loyalty to anyone.
In effect, the momentary feeling is real, but the popular concept is worthless.

Everyone can be bought at a price (which is why I'll never own anyone, I don't have the funds)
Are you trying to imply that you purchased your lover?
This conversation might become interesting, yet.
What falls away is always, and is near.
Also, I am not pretending to be female, this profile picture is my wonderful girlfriend. XD
