Why do people use words that they do not know the meaning of?
-
"Love" is a dangerously abused term in the modern era. I find myself mocking the idea of successful human relationships when I gaze upon the limitless pool of failed or abusive ones. To elaborate on the words, "abusive relationships", I mean the kind of pairing which in any function has brought detriment to either party or the members for which either is responsible. I apologize if I'm not making any sense so far. By no means should you assume I'm writing from atop my high horse. I have come here, after all, because there are many things I currently do not understand. My mother is currently in a relationship that follows the description of an "abusive relationship" as defined by me. In a time where the man's children are happy and entertaining themselves and she is in disrepair, he tells me that, "She's overreacting," and she herself tells me things such as, "You can't change who people are; this will all 'roll over'," as well as some estranged rationalization including astrological signs and horoscopes. Before I can state what the responsibilities of the man are if he "loves" my mother, I have to define what I believe love to be. "Love" is a feeling that is infinitely removed from all other feelings. "To love another" is to create a place in your life and mind of someone else wherein no sacrifice of self is too great to cause you not to act in such a way that makes the one you love have a better life. That may sound extreme. "Love" is not fleeting; "affection" is fleeting. For all improper uses of the word "love", there is a more suitable word that exists and it never considered. "Love" is a word that people use and abuse for its strength in all mediums where it is implemented. So why, given this definition of "love", does my mother blame herself for why she is so miserable? Why does she say the cause of her pain is him, yet cast the index finger at herself? Can it be that she understands that its her choice to be in such a relationship, as opposed to being alone, that is causing her this distress, and she feels that she has reached a point in life where those are her only choices? Or is all of this just a joke? I've taken a semester of Psychology, which is enough to have informed me of the cases in which women place fault on themselves. Something that I struggle with personally, and that will never be resolved, is that I will never know what someone else is thinking...and there is nothing I can do to change that... All I can do is watch the world spin, watch relationships form and fall apart, watch people turn from one purpose in life to the next, searching for a meaning for their existence without ever feeling whole... Now I'm just ranting. Forgive me for that. If this man "loves" my mother, why does he tell me that, "She'll calm down." Why isn't he with her, trying to make her feel better? Isn't that, in the very least, what he's responsible for in a "loving" relationship? What did I miss? Where in the "love" handbook does it say, "Let her smoke a cigarette upstairs, alone, with two headphones in for music, while mentally troubled, rocking herself back and forth in a dance of intangible pain." ??? And for the sake of the God I deny the very existence of, answer me this: Why does she tell me that I will make the decision to enter a relationship one day, and that relationship is fated to have similar troubles? You don't need to know this, necessarily, but I'm a 17 year old male who has never had a girlfriend. That is not a fear of commitment, or a display of introverted behavior. I just don't think anyone takes a damn thing seriously anymore. Everything is fun and jokes, enjoying life with people you might not really know at all, and the formation and collapse of relationships on a whim. Even if I have a relationship in the future, who am I to take a part in slinging the word "love" around? Why do people use words that they do not know the meaning of? (and why does Spell Checker want to replace every word I have typed with a blank space?)

Answer:
yes we hear parents beating the child in the name of love so that the child can be disciplined and be a good person. its in the stupidest mind of such people. but cant blame them. for they must have known of other ways of upbringing. they were brought up in such physical style. they have not heard of talking, counselling, consulting. if they knew they wouldnt use physical force. can we agree its in the mind and body: u wanna try this: learn about how the brain works. left / right side and start with strong will, control its processes. we americans are so used to medications that we get addicted and our brain ignores it. treat the brain as a separate identity and work to control it. both are different and yet seem seamless. so when controlled, we get balance and equal distribution of thought processes. try also, change diet. avoid junk/ processsed food / red meat / deep fried. eat brain food - fish, vege, fruits, nuts if u like, u could check out the bahai community nearest to u and see what alternatives they could offer for such matters. these bahai seem to have a different approach to various things. and it seems to work or we have to make it work
