I think the pills are stopping more than just the stirrings. I think its stopping emotions; love, anger, hatred, etc. I think this because your first crush comes naturally at your own age. Like Asher started taking his pills at a younger age than Jonas. It even said that Asher had a crush on Fiona. Taking what we know, the pills have got to be the reason no one has had girlfriend, or a second crush, because the pills are a drug that is devouring your emotions.<\/p>\n<p><strong>What does love mean to this community?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>I think love is meaningless to them. To the whole community (except for Jonas and the Giver). When Jonas asked his father if he loved him, the answer was pretty much \u201cno\u201d. The word \u201clove\u201d is old fashion. They don\u2019t know \u201ctrue love\u201d or the love for your family. Even the way you \u201clove\u201d a friend. They don\u2019t know the different types of love. Whether it\u2019s with your wife, parents, friend. The community doesn\u2019t know the phrase \u201clove you as a friend\u201d or \u201cgoodnight mom, love you\u201d or even \u201clove you\u201d. Yeah, it\u2019s confusing, but this community has no feeling of love.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Why do think \u201clove\u201d is obsolete?
