("Baby don't hurt me! No more!")
But seriously, what is love? On an empirical, scientific level, what is love, and why do we experience it? I can understand how on an evolutionary level we would see love between families and mates as beneficial to the propagation of our own species, but is it any deeper than that?
On another note, do soul mates exist? My ideological nature wants to believe that there's someone out there for everyone, and that we all have this deep, passionate love waiting to be unlocked by that special someone. (I also still think the existence of the soul is out there, but I have no evidence for or against it...)
Or is that bullshit, too?
Do we just settle for someone who's maybe-sorta-probably compatible with us and live life? That sounds boring...
