Why do we take love for granted?

  • It's a goal, it's an insecurity

    In today's world, people say "I love you" way too frequently, I do believe that you can be in love more than once, but not very many times, three or four AT MOST, but there is only one true love in this world, and many tend to misinterpret that. Many people are, as said above, insecure, but I believe that this shows that people want to be loved, that is what the goal of everyone in the world is, to be loved, whether it be by family, friends, or a significant other. But the reason people take love for granted, or at least the word, is because they want to truly believe they are in love so that they can feel, although it may be false, that they have fulfilled a dream. But in some terrible cases people have taken "love" for granted because of subconcious worng intentions, such as to have sex with the person using the excuse of "I thought I was in love." I've seen it happen. People will take love for granted in order to pretend to fulfill a lifelong yearning.

  • we want what we cant have

    people always want what they can't have... they get out of love to think they could find it in what they think they want... thinking it's so easy to find again... people think they will be happier, when they can never be satisfied or they want to break something before it shatters on accident...

  • Because some people are just insecure

    I think people are just unsure of themselves and what they really want out of love. It's very easy to not take someone serious or to think "Oh, they are just saying that just to get my attention"! Or maybe they have been hurt in the past and they continue to carry the emotional baggage from one relationship to the next.
