saying that you need to experience romantic love in order to completely describe its various elements is as absurd as saying you need to experience a given drug in order to completely describe its various elements.

ummmmmmmmmmm lol

oftentimes, people take the same drug and experience different effects, learn about reality.

yes they do. but the only possible way you could say what you've just said is to never have had those experiences. people also react differently to a violent punch in the gut but that's another thing that you don't just read about

many people wind up making the same mistake in selecting their partner or pursuing a relationship over and over again. not doing those things, including by pre-emptively being aware of them and adjusting for them (e.g. acknowledging the fact that a normal, healthy romantic relationship is not going to grant you Personal Fulfillment of the kind that activism, ideology, charity, etc can), is a Good Idea.
