Love itself can never be fake. But, the way that we choose to treat love and exhibit love to others can be fake. I think the rise of social media has killed human relationships because we are constantly comparing our lives to the lives of others and wanting what they have. Envy of others has killed many relationships and has injured our self esteem because we don't feel that we measure up to those around us. Thanks in part to technology, it's possible to find a new lover or new friends just by swiping on an app on a smartphone or you can look to meet people on Twitter, Instagram, Facebook, etc... And we can hide our actions by deleting records of conversations. Instead of being happy with the relationships that we have, we pursue the next new thing because it looks so much better. So, is love fake or is love dead? No, but the way that we treat each other has become fake. Can we change it? Sure, we can. By changing our own actions and consciously choosing to love those around us and by treating them well. Then, we should teach others how to love by actions and not just by our words. It is often said that children learn best from watching the adults around them and that is so very true but adults are constantly learning from each other too by watching each other's actions.
