Is there a disease or affliction, or condition whose root cause isn't the lack of love, and whose cure isn't love?

I love love and falling inlove, it does feel good, it feel better than bonus and ROI

Love goes beyond pain and pleasure. From the physical to the spiritual, the greatest lover is master over the orgasm.
I was a young boy when I got my first orgasm. My anticipation of a second one were filled with the question, 'uchungu itafika saa ngapi?' Painful pleasure. After that my psychological life hinged on this pleasurable circuit. Love, being connected to pleasure became sexual and orgasmic. Any pain was met by a desire to reactivate my pleasure circuits. Stress increasing 'libido'.
That's how one builds a prison from within. And proceeds to imprison the other. For now, like in my case, I had to look for ways to satisfy my brain circuit needs. And because my brain isn't 'unique' other circuits that fit could be found. And hence a false concept of love reinforced. The theme of false love is self satisfaction. Relationships are turned into strategies of self satisfaction and trade offs.
True love on the other hand must involve a constant rewiring of my brain networks. Avoidance of any addiction and expectations. Indifference and equanimity.
Thus love making is quite the opposite of what many think. It's about:
1. Mutual healing and circuit changing in the brain
2. Enlightenment
3. Transformation
4. Creation- physical to spiritual
5. Nurturing of the creation
6. Meditation
That is, love making goes beyond coitus. Love making is a powerful tool even in education, sports, organization design and sustainance, and all interpersonal relations.
Loving your neighbor as yourself is difficult not because it's unnatural but because the techniques for such a practice haven't been taught to most of us.

Learning to be aware of my thoughts, inclinations and actions has been a wonderful experience. But there have been daunting moments. Like, I've come to realize how important it's been for me to please others. Even my most isolated actions are aimed at pleasing someone, however abstract the person may be. Like my self.
But pleasing others is a most difficult task. Impossible actually, from a certain perspective. The impossibility was weighing me down even as I was walking in the busy Kibera streets. Then I saw this old friend who was carrying a book. I stopped him, and after greetings I asked to see what the book was about. And alas, the answer to my questions was there waiting for me. This is what the writer was saying;
'There's nothing you can do to make God love you more, and nothing you can do to make God love you less'.
The attempt to please others in order to be loved more turned out to be an impossible task indeed. Yet the reminder was also about how humans can please each other. Cryptic!
