Do you think love begins in the eyes and expires habituation ?

Answer 1

I guess it depends on how you define "love".
If to you "love" is the infatuation that makes you desire another person for your own pleasure (not necessarily sexual), then yes, I believe that your interpretation of it can be considered accurate (if somewhat summarized).
Personally, I do not believe "love" is even related to those feelings.
(The statements, definition(s), and explanations that follow represent only the opinions and views of the author, and in no way should be considered as accurate or literal definition(s) of the word "love", and in no moment have these statements been consulted with a dictionary, encyclopedia, psychology text, or any other reference, save the sole reasoning of the author, to back or otherwise support them.)
To me "love" per-se (as a noun, or subject) does not exist.
To me "to love" is a verb that describes the act of loving or being loved. None of these acts are directly or indirectly related to the sexual act. "To love" is the fundamental action that allows existence; it is the reason for us to be alive (origin and finality- a nondestructive finality).
Origin: You would not be alive if someone had not loved you, and by this I do not mean that you being born was the result of the love between your mother and father, your conception could have been the result of a rape, but if someone, anyone, had not loved you you would not have survived beyond conception or birth. Someone had to care enough to feed you, protect you, heal you etc., until you reached the stage in your development when you could take care of yourself. This is of course seen from a very human perspective, but if you try hard enough you can apply it to almost any living being known (although to some people this might seem like a stretch of reality)
Purpose (non-destructive finality): Everything that you do is (or at least should be) directed or focused on prolonging or perpetuating life (your own and/or that of others). Everything we learn from infancy to adulthood is focused on surviving and commuting. We go to school, college, and do anything to find a job in order to be "a productive member of society". Productive for what? What do we produce? We produce the means for ourselves and others to live. People who do not love themselves and/or others have difficulty becoming "productive members of society" because they lack the basic motivation: to love. This does not mean that they are incapable of love, they are alive therefore they were at some point of their lives loved by someone, thus having at least the basic experience and knowledge to love (even if they do not know that it is loving, what they are doing). But to love you have to make a decision, conscious or not, to do something for yourself and/or for others.
This may seem like I am demeaning love and giving it less value than it has, but it you think about it, I am actually giving it more depth and meaning than to say that love is a very strong attraction. Plus I do not think that my definition of "to love" denies anything that is said by any authority on the matter.
To love you have, not only to want to love, also you have to do something about it.

Answer 2

What? What? How can a value--love ( unless you mean it as a virtue ) start in the eyes? Virtues and values begin in the mind. And how does love expire except by dying? What the heck is "habituation" in this sense? A habituation is something that happens when you do something that causes a habit, like smoking.

Answer 3

Love begins with the Voice.
Those high pitched female voices call for the immediate use of the MUTE button.
Love also expires with the Voice -
as soon as she starts bitching or complaining - Love goes out the Window.

Answer 4

Love that begins in the eyes usually expires.
It's different when love begins in the heart.

Love expires when it stops developing. It needs input. It needs to evolve. Sight is not much use in these matters.

Answer 5

I think love begins when it begins, be it in the eyes, heart, mouth or legs. It expires when the infatuation is gone. If you're lucky enough, all that is left is respect and friendship.

Answer 6

No
Love doesn't begin in the eyes....
and god knows what else you're on about? Expires in habituation..... Err what?
No
Surely if you love someone you love them and there is no expiry. Love isn't like a yoghurt with an expiry date is it?

Answer 7

Depends how blind you were to start with and how much more you want to see later. It only becomes habitual if it's not allowed to nurture and grow. Never take another person's love for granted - it is a privilege to have, not a right.

Answer 8

I believe lust begins with the eyes.
Love begins with the heart (brain, to be most exact). When we love someone, we see their inner beauty. This is what truly matters.
The better we know someone, the more we can love them. Of course, other emotions come into play over the course of a long-term relationship. Sometimes people allow these to contribute to the ending of the relationship.

Answer 9

Love begins in the heart. Lust begins in the eyes. Likewise, lust expires in habitation whilst true love never expires at all.

Answer 10

Love does not begin or end. In this present incarnation it exists in the Heart Centre.
