Your awful grammar leads me to think this question is sarcastic....


Anyway, it's most likely something that's developed through evolution for a multiple number of reasons. Being a social species, building strong bonds with one another is ultimately an advantage. This applies to both friendships, romantic relationships, and families.
Romantic relationships in particular, since I'm assuming that's what you're primarily asking about, most likely stems from producing and protecting offspring. It would be much more difficult for our species to procreate if we didn't from bonds with one another, being the social species we are.
Obviously, there's selecting a suitable mate to procreate with and having sex with them, having their offspring, etc. Then there's parenting the offspring, which is better done with two people than one. Of course it's not impossible with one parent, but it's easier to protect the highly vulnerable human offspring with two people rather than one. Having an emotional attachment to the other parent of your offspring would probably make one more inclined to protect that offspring than if they had no attachment to them whatsoever.

So really, when you stop and think about it, it makes since that humans fall in love like we do. It's helped enable our species to grow and flourish.



...Oh, you didn't want an actual, thought-out answer...?

However, what if God did not? What if he/she/it created us with the three basic emotions-Anger, Sadness, and Joy? What if all the other emotions we feel, we created ourselves, hmm?

That is an interesting theory, but not one that I am inclined to believe because God Himself loves us, and He created us in His image, then we probably got love from Him.

Truly, it's unknown. Whether religion, or science, and even theories that love doesn't even exist at all...we truly still don't know.

Love...?
Pfft.
Love is just an illusion of attachment created by the human mind, generally towards the opposite sex...there's no such thing as love.
But, go on believing what you want. It's not like I'm going to stop you.

^ I know, I know, it can be very hard to find actual information on the Internet. I mean, that's not like that's what it was originally intended for or anything... No, no, it was just invented for the sake of cat videos.... Information is a rare find on the internet.

In my defense, I don't see what insinuated the idea that I "live by what's on the internet because I'm on it so much," Or that I "believe everything I'm told or everything I read is true", or that I'm picking and chosing the facts I present. I don't recall saying anything that would lead one to come to those conclusions, so naturally I don't understand where the assertions are coming from. However, I don't particularly care that much about your trite and meaningless attempts at insult, so I'm not going to waste another minute on your irrational behaviour. I hope you have a nice day.

I personally find love to be infuriatingly inexplicable, but I've also come to realize that its existence beyond the realms of what the mind can grasp is what makes it so amazing and special. If we could rationalize it, it wouldn't be very romantic, and that's quite contradictory. Also, why do you think love is terrible?

Short version, my answer is that there is no good answer, but that's okay, and in fact better. :D
