While love is certainly not the only difficult thing in the world, its probability of success is lower than that of other endeavors that can be accomplished alone, precisely because it requires two individuals to meet and become one. Even if mutual affection is genuine, external circumstances can sometimes drive a couple apart; and even if individuals seem truly fine, love cannot fully mature if one of them is not ready. This applies equally to those who reach marriage after feeling a
I intended to read it lightly, but I must admit it was more profound than I expected. Unlike the run-of-the-mill dating guides I’ve read before, this book discusses love, dating, pain, and breakups using the author’s own stories and those of people around her as examples. How diverse are the forms of love? Perhaps, at the very moment of falling in love, everyone is almost the same. Seeing only each other, hearing nothing of the people around them, and having only their own world... It is a
Talking to Dating: A Love Story... and... The famous line from the movie *Love Story* is, “Love means never having to say you are sorry.” The man, who knew nothing about love, did not understand the meaning of this line. He began to get hurt by love and started to feel skeptical about it. Then, he comes to understand the meaning of the line through a woman. “Eriko is a person who has been unable to speak since birth. She reads my mind by looking into my eyes. I think the phrase ‘Love is not
For the first time in a while, I took some time to casually read a book about love and dating. It was a story about love and relationships that was commonplace. In fact, it wasn't much different from other books on dating, but that doesn't mean it offered advice on love with a perfectly structured system. I suppose you could say it was a bit free-spirited. As is typical for stories about love, they were all quite similar. However, among the many sentences in this book, there were passages that
People who don't need dating read books about it. These people never actually date. No, they can't. Similarly, people who don't need money, or who, even if they do, feel that money doesn't like them, end up flipping through books on the economics of the wealthy. Curiosity naturally fades from things we already know well, are familiar with, and feel comfortable in. People pour their passion into things that seem difficult, unapproachable, and unattainable, no matter how hard they try. Absurdly,
For those who haven't started a relationship, it makes them want to fall in love; for those already in love, it encourages them to love even more. For those who have experienced a breakup, it calmly heals them, much like medicine that makes even a breakup seem beautiful. And it makes them look forward to their next love. The stories are imbued with sincerity because the author personally met and spoke with people in their 20s and 30s. Through their love stories, the gentle, heartwarming emotion
Essays on love—such as "The Man," "The Woman," and "Soulmate"—continue to be published and loved. Everyone lives in love. I purchased this book after seeing the advertising copy. When you are in love, you are bound to be drawn to writings, words, and songs of love that are beautiful enough to seem childish. Perhaps that is why the writings in this book feel as though they were written, drawn, and read by someone who is currently in love. Perhaps, as the author said—though it might seem
Myeong Ro-jin: Talking to someone about dating
“Talking to Love” is a love story that delves deeply into various moments of love. Myeong Ro-jin, who operates like a guerrilla across the broadcasting, theater, and publishing industries, shares love stories discovered in unfamiliar foreign lands while traveling across six continents. Instead of explaining how to date well or what love is, he tells people's love stories directly. He discovers the value of love through the repressed romantic relationships of Libyan women and skillfully unravels even the difficult-to-handle nature of physical love. Through this, he guides readers to discover realistic love, rather than a fantastical romance filled only with romanticism. Illustrator Jeong-ah has added sentimental illustrations to the gently unfolding pictures, helping readers revive memories of love.
