Is Love Dead? Unconventional Musings On Dating, Sex, Love, And Marriage With Anthony Vernon, Acclaimed Author, And Cutting Edge Philosopher
Love is not dead, but it is evolving in unexpected and counterintuitive ways. This is the conclusion of our fascinating guest on Love University, Vernon Anthony, acclaimed Cuban American Gen Z author and out of the box philosopher. According to Vernon, we’re becoming a society of flings, contracts, and rose-colored lenses that need to stay on. “Doing philosophy with a sledgehammer,” Vernon’s mission is to smash holes in the walls of love and discover the truth that remains.
Some of his intriguing ideas include:
“A fling is an authentic experience that is superior to love in certain ways.”
“Love is a byproduct of passion. Love is the object that passion attaches onto.”
“Friendship is higher than love.”
“A long marriage equals a long conversation, not necessarily long love. Divorce is the inability to tolerate the voice of another.”
“Love is action; it doesn’t come to those who wait.”
“Self-love can be evil because you create an ideal of yourself instead of your true self. Self-care is superior because it is based on the real you.”
“Union with another in love can destroy their otherness. Each love partner must remain independent, and preserve their uniqueness and beauty, for a true partnership to blossom.”
“Love is temporary, but life is eternal (leaving a legacy).”
Provocative, controversial, and mind-bending, Anthony will definitely give you food for thought in the realms of love and relationships.
