Are People Afraid to Love

As a whole I do believe that society is afraid to love. There is an exception to this though, not everyone is afraid to love or to be loved. The reason people would be afraid to love is because, to love or to be loved it to open yourself up and you put yourself it a vulnerable state. Some people are willing to love and to be loved, they will take care of others when they are no longer able to take care of themselves. Many people would say they could take care of someone such as a family member when they get old, but when it actually comes down to it they couldn't do it. Does this mean we don't love? No it doesn't but, many people will find an excuse to get out of taking care of someone because they would see it as an inconvenience. Some people are able to love and be loved easier that others. this could be because of where they grew up or because of the way they were raised. If someone was raised being shown love everyday they would more likely love and accept love more openly.
