'love is a drug desinged to keep us busy and destroy us'-PUNKER

i don 't agree with this,love isn't a drug and it doesn't keep us busy but just keeps us going and we destroy ourselves with it if we don't use it in a good way

what is your comment about this?

this is an incorrect understanding of love. what punker refers to is what today's western society has classified as love: infatuation and lust, the overpowering emotional attraction that one feels when they first meet someone.

love, however, is VERY different from this, it doesnt keep us busy and destroy us, it unites us with humanity and is truly very rare. the challenge is getting over the sentiment that has been placed in our heads in order to sell greeting cards for upcoming singles awareness day.

Love is God Himself. Any "love" apart from God is just a shadow of the reality.

No love is not a drug, however here is a list of common illegal drugs that can keep you busy getting stupid:PCP, LSD, Reefer, Crack, Smack, Coke, Extasy, ect. I think you get the picture

well... first of all i think punker meant love inside a relationship

well love is a drug for many people...i certainly agree with that...but ...i'd rather put things like this,love is the fuel,you are the car,the thing/person you love is your destination...but there is no driver

yeah and it keeps you busy...but doesn't everything that we like keeps us busy?
