slamming love


Love is no longer bringing her flowers 

Love is no longer going on dates

Love is no longer spending time together

Love is no longer sneaking out to see each other

Love is no longer dating a person because you actually like them

What is love today?

 

Love is defined as dating someone because of their social rating

That means you automatically have to date because you two are the most popular

You two are “destined” to be together

 

Comments are said around you two:

“You guys would be such a cute couple”

“You have the same interest, it would be a no brainer”

“She's hot, you're hot” 

“Use each other to climb the social ladder”

 

That is not love

That is not a relationship

That is what we are told.
