It's just a chemical to ensure the species lives on. As a concept, it's a modern thing created by Hollywood. 100 years ago people stayed together because it was what had to be done. Nobody cared about personal choices or questioned these issues.

Exactly. That's why you never read books about love from more than 100 years ago. Oh wait...

You are so silly, lol
Guess you've never read the 1845 poem by poet Elizabeth Barrett to her true love Robert Browning?
Just FYI 1845 was decades before Hollywood
For your edification:
How do I love thee? Let me count the ways.
I love thee to the depth and breadth and height
My soul can reach, when feeling out of sight
For the ends of Being and ideal Grace.
I love thee to the level of everyday's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.
I love thee freely, as men strive for Right;
I love thee purely, as they turn from Praise.
I love thee with a passion put to use
In my old griefs, and with my childhood's faith.
I love thee with a love I seemed to lose
With my lost saints, --- I love thee with the breath,
Smiles, tears, of all my life! --- and, if God choose,
I shall but love thee better after death.
Exactly. That's why you never read books about love from more than 100 years ago. Oh wait...
Betting he's surely never read any Shakespeare either, lol
From the year 1610 - which for the uninformed among us was WAY MORE than 100 years ago
From the Tempest...
Hear my soul speak. Of the very instant that I saw you, Did my heart fly at your service
Or Romeo and Juliet...
Give me my Romeo, and, when he shall die,
Take him and cut him out in little stars,
And he will make the face of heaven so fine
That all the world will be in love with night,
And pay no worship to the garish sun.
(3.2.21-5), Juliet
How fares my Juliet? that I ask again;
For nothing can be ill, if she be well.
(5.1.15-16), Romeo to Balthasar
Yeah, nobody ever loved anybody until Hollywood introduced the concept
I'm speaking about common people, not iconic figures like Shakespeare.
