Dr. Morgan Scott Peck was born on 23 May 1936 in New York City was an American psychiatrist who focused his work on reassessing certain human conduct in social interaction. From the excerpt Are you a Romantic or a Libertine from his best-known book, The Road Less Traveled, Peck wrote his opinion on the feeling of love between human being and is this mutual attraction a real love and romance or just for manipulating the romantic code.
Love and romantic
Love is not something that can be simply defined as everyone has their own believe on how to define love. Based on the excerpt, love is a feeling of affection, fondness towards an individual. As love is hard to define, people can only feel love as a symptom and feeling of fondness and affection, with strong longing to be with someone or something that they loved. Yet, love also may come based on unexpected and insensible feelings that one has over another person.
Romantic can be defined as a common sense of attraction in the love affair. Romantic is necessary to begin the feeling of affection between lovers. Romantic is something that the lovers can give to convince and attract their beloved to be mutually attracted. Romantic is needed in one relationship to show appreciation, to impress and definitely, to establish a relationship.
Libertine
This type of person use love to attain their needs and personal delight. The Libertine totally has no concern about their beloved’s feeling and they only put their personal feeling first. Libertines have the ability to manipulate and trick their target, and have effective strategies and tricks to persuade and exploit them.
Eventually, people will experience being in love and they will decide whether it is meaningful or a bad luck for them.
We do not have to love. We choose to love-M. Scott Peck
