Maybe People Are Isolating Themselves for Self-Preservation
Since humans can take only so much rejection, perhaps it’s better to stick with things we can trust and make us feel good…like our smartphones and social media
Love kills.
20% of murders are committed by an intimate partner; 65% of murder-suicides are perpetrated by intimate partners.
Humanity is dangerous, messy, and unpredictable.
Better said, people in love who are rejected, betrayed, disrespected, or ditched, sometimes are so consumed with rage and fury, they kill the person they swore they loved.
Perhaps I’m watching too many true crime documentaries but most seem to follow the same pattern: a man or woman tells the other they love them deeply and forever, one of them betrays the other, and the aggrieved person can’t mentally and psychologically handle it, and so they get a gun and shoot them to death.
With few exceptions, these passion-related killers seem perfectly sane before a break-up or divorce destroys their ability to make rational decisions.
Losing love hurts like nothing else.
Yes, losing a job, getting a severe medical diagnosis, or the death of a loved one, hurts, but nothing can destroy your soul like someone who promised to love you forever…
