Reaction on "love is a fallacy"

The story is very long, very long yet it is very meanigfull. “Love is a Fallacy” is one of the best love stories I have ever read in my 14 year life. I really had a hard time understanding the story because of it's unfamiliar terms to me. But by reading it deeply, it makes me understand it much better and it makes me like the story so much. It talks about one reality in life, when you fall in love ,you are ready to give up everything you own. You will sacrifice your life for the one you love.

As I read the story,I really appreciated the main character. He must really be a nice,kind and sensitive. He did everything for the girl and choose to spend the rest of his life just for that girl he loved. That what we men should to the one you love!.But it still ends up that the girl choose the main character's friend over him,and the worst thing is that Polly choose Petey over him just because he had a raccoon coat. She only liked him just because of that material thing that made him belong to the “Tough Guy” in school, what a dumb reason,right? (But that's just my point )...But how can she choose Petey over this guy who did everything for her and was so true to his feelings? The guy who choose to be with her than Petey, the one she barely even know most especially when it talks about sincerity of love.

For me, love cannot bemeasure on the money and the things he will give to you. If he gives you flowers and chocolates or not. If he spends a lot on your dates and always treat you for a dinner and an outing. But love? It's how sincere the person is, of how a person is ready to sacrifice his/her happiness to the one he/she love. Most especially? It's not important for me if “my girlfriend” is famous and popular and is known to be one of the known girls, who got the cutest look and used to wear those cute bracelets,earings and other girl stuffs,but what matters most is that i know she is worth to be my girlfriend and I love her not just because of any material things but by the real her without those factors that makes her a“popular girl!”

I really don't have an idea why the story is entitled as “Love is a Fallacy”. Fallacy is defined as erroneousness, an invalid reference or the quality of being deceptive. But is love really a false motion? Maybe when people say that they are not ready yet for that love stuffs and they have their other priorities. But you never choose the person you fell in love to. Most especially you'll never know when that happens and why that happens. So, when love comes your way, you can never avoid it and especially love can never be a false motion because falling in love is beyond ourimaginations.Well,in some points of our everyday lives,things happen for a reason just when she knocks my door and let her in for she has a reason knocking my own door.

The story is reflecting on you. Sacrifice is the key so that the one you love will also love you.
