Food, shelter, and love: the necessities of life

Food and shelter are basic necessities, but the need for love is also very strong. Love is a feeling we experience because our bodies are trying to make us have babies. Not only does biology make us want to love others but also our biology makes us want others to love us as well. There is a downside to this as it can lead to conformity. We conform to archetypes in order to get others to love us, which can cause us to turn away from our true selves. There are many benefits from turning your back on love.
