Love is in the air… people snogging everywhere… ahh… love.
Aint it the best.
Urrm….
While it can be beautiful, it can also seem hopeless and random and difficult.
There is no better feeling than being in love, but no worse feeling than loving when it isn't
returned.
Love.
The most powerful human emotion.
But what if love wasn't always up to us mere mortals – what if there was something
or someone else that could control it at whim?
what if it was as simple as being shot with cupids arrow….
Hello and welcome back to Life's Biggest Questions – that channel that loves to answer
all manner of questions from science to science fiction, history to pop culture, legendary
to just down right whimsical.
I am your host Rebecca Felgate and today we are celebrating love….or lust… as we ask
What if Cupid was Real?
Before we get into this video I just want to talk about a fun and flirty next generation
dating app called "Quiz Date Live!"
Basically, there's a live game show featuring a beautiful Bachelorette and anyone who downloads
the app can participate.
You answer all the trivia questions about the Bachelorette correctly you will win a
Michelin-star dinner or a helicopter ride date with her.
It starts from a series of multiple-choice questions, just like HQ Trivia".
They will test you on the compatibility with the Bachelorette.
For example, *** here I am going to give example questions provided by you.
**
Then, there will be a free text question.
People who answer wrong will be eliminated.
3 finalists will be invited to the live stream and asked to impress the girl.
And finally she picks the winner, who as we mentioned before will get a Michelin-star
dinner date or a helicopter ride with the Bachelorette.
If this takes off then Quiz Date Live will be playing with Bachelors, too!
If this sounds like your thing, I have put the link to the app in the description box
below, so check out the trending app "Quiz Date Live!"
Okay, so…….back to Cupid!
Firstly, anyone wonder why cupid is portrayed as a chubby little kid cherub with wings and
a bow – let me tell you!
And lovers… listen up!
So Cupid is winged because lovers are flighty, he is boyish and immature because love is
irrational and he has a bow and torch because love can both wound and ignite the heart.
If Cupid were real, wouldn't we be like….
Woah…winged naked boy, what are you doing here… want to put some pants on mate?
Maybe for that reason he would fly above us and try to remain concealed?
Perhaps occasional cupid sightings would lead to local headlines about freak birds or UFOs?
If Cupid were real?
I wonder how he would make his selection process of who to shoot with his arrow?
Is it random, or does he observe people and decide who to make fall in love?!
I don't know how comfortable I feel with the notion that love is at the mercy of a
flying pre-pubescent?
Would this not fundamentally change our understanding of what it is to be human?
I'd like to love someone by choice, not because I was struck by an arrow… wouldn't
we all then question whether love was real or not?
Although maybe If cupid was real and we all only fell in love at his bidding, it would
be kind of refreshing to know about it!
We could all relax and stop chasing love, because we don't have any control over when
it happens to us anyway.
If that were the case I personally would feel liberated.
Perhaps if cupid was real, though, he would only exits as a mischief.
Love as a human emotion would exist but the false love, the spiked love, he offered would
be to mess with us.
Maybe cupid is actually kind of evil.
The devil fools with the best laid plans and all that.
Cupid is said to have two arrow heads, one golden arrow filled with desire and one blunt,
lead end that is filled with aversion and encourages those hit with it to flee.
If Cupid were real, does that mean that all the ghosts out there were actually the victims
of a savage arrow attack and like… they wanted to text us back.. but..uh oh, arrow.
I guess the whole cupid's arrow thing could be used to explain how some people seem to
fall in and out of love so quickly.
If Cupid were real, I really hope he would reveal himself to us because like, how great
would a cupid reality TV show be?
I am for it!
Okay, maybe not for everyone, but if cupid was real and we knew about it wouldn't he
become the worlds number one most wanted?
Everyone….
And I mean everyone… has suffered some form of heartache.
If there was a kid with magic arrows that you could point at someone to make them love
you…or stop loving someone else…do you not think that would be pretty damn lucrative?
Love is more valuable than oil…
I imagine big businesses would try and harness cupids power for the greatest power mankind
knows… capitalism.
BUT ….if we could buy and trade in love… wouldn't the world become like… total
and utter chaos?
Beyond the shallow and greedy, how about we negotiate with cupid and get him to use his
arrows on people for good?
Or is the brand of love – aka pure desire - ever a force for good?
Can we get him to water it down a bit and make people like Kim Jong Un and Donald Trump
bestie mates for the sake of world peace?
Or would that annoy the God of war…
CUPIDS DAD.
OH YEAH THAT'S RIGHT – Cupids parents are the Goddess of Love, Venus, and the God
of War, Mars….Cupids clearly messed up psychological upbringing is probably the reason he wants
to mess with human relationships so much… what happens when love and war meet?
Lust in the best case, jealousy in the worst?
If cupid were real would it mean other Roman gods were real too?
That would be a whole other can of worms that would include there being a Goddess of Door
hinges.
IS NOTHING SACRED!
Okay, we have had our fun, but maybe cupid does kind of exists today in the form of dating
sites.
The algorithm is the modern day cupids arrow, connecting two random people and suggesting
that they fall in love… or.. you know… something shorter term.
