The flawed concept of "Love".

Love is commitment. It's putting up with the rain and sunshine. Granted I never been in a relationship with any lady, but I know what to look for in one. Courtesy of God providing me 2 amazing parents....however some people don't have that. To which I pity them because I personally wish to see him/her happy. I also know God would want them happy too.

The only thing I can recommend is just loving God through the good and bad times. The most beautiful thing about God, is when one invests all that he or she is hoping for a change, he or she is likely to change as long as they have faith as small as a mustard seed.

I can't tell anyone in simple words how he makes me love all kinds of people more. Heck even put up with bitter people who genuinely want to feel loved. Especially ones who just question God for all that he is.

We can have the best lady, the best job, and all kinds of things, yet we're empty once we really have it or not. Thus, anyone can plug up their ears and deny that they are actually living life. However once it's all said and done, where will we go once the dust settles?

That's a question all will have to think about once they enjoyed life yet underneath they're empty. Or enjoyed life as God guided them home.

Seriously man, plz be in an relationship before giving advice or saying like it is. You know your are my homie, but damn lol. When you talk about this subject, you sound like a food critic writing long reviews on food you've never eaten. It's something you have to experience and no book or people watching will ever prepare you for it.

Also, there is a damn good reason why long-term married couples don't have sex as often as they used to. Do you have any idea how boring it would get after having daily sex for months, years even? They space it out as to not get bored.

Way to make marriage sound terrible Marginal.
 
I never wholeheartedly disagreed with him per se, it was the manner in which he said it. No one living on planet earth believes humanity, and life itself, is without problems.

But like you said, he doesn't offer any solutions, just stating the issues. And here's why I can relate to him:

I used to think like him. I used to be a complete pessimist and wondered why we even exist at all. He then goes on to claim that we try to justify our existence with our pleasures. This is where I disagree. I'm sort of a hedonist in a way. If things in life give you pleasure, joy, satisfaction, whether it be an accomplishment out of struggle, a cigarette, an orgasm, a cupcake, or marijuana, it doesn't matter. The sheer fact that things give us pleasure make life worth living and makes the whole process WORTH repeating.

In other words, been there, done that. I've been at the mountain top ready to jump off, I've been in the bar drinking 13 beers and crying to myself.

What I realized is that even though life is pretty much superficial and pointless to a large degree, there is still SOME good in it, or at least there are parts in it that outweigh what is bad.

He's probably had some major existential epiphany where he must come to grips with the meaning of his own life, but can't find it, so he's using his negative emotions to cloud his judgement over what is a completely neutral thing: life.

Life is what we make of it. It's up to US to make it good and worth doing. It's our responsibility.
