Look, I am NOT against love. I do not despise love, as you seem to think. In fact, I myself love many things. For example, money, wealth and business, house, family etc etc etc. Love is a strong emotion indeed. This strong emotion IS necessary for someone to achieve something.
BUT and a BIG BUT, when this love becomes for something which is NOT beneficial, this is very illogical, foolish and something to be despised of. A very good example of this is the love for another girl/guy. My point is, love for money and business is understandable and plausible, since they are beneficial to you.
Think about it well...
We love people because of they have done for us. Until someone has hit your life hard, you don't care. Until someone has made a mark, it doesn't make a difference.
But love for another girl/guy? Its not. What will you get by loving that guy/girl? NOTHING. As I said, love is a strong emotion. And due to this very reason, love for another guy/girl will CONSUME the person concerned, that too, without any personal benefit for the person. He/she will always think about his/her lover, neglecting his/her studies, business or work in case of a grown up man, and other very important tasks.
Don't confuse. There is a time for loving someone. The time when love will not consume, but feed.
Emotions are not always there to crush your blood out of body. You should know how to use them well. Sometimes, they will fill you up when your body has dried.
You can't blame 'love' for the stupidity of
people. Everybody does not show the same state of mind.
See, its same in your case. Your above statements conflict with each other. 
I'm talking about real life love and fantasy.
LOL! She gonna kill you! 
Correct.
And then I will have a PhD in crime.
I asked her once if she had ever really fallen in love with someone since I noticed that she was expert on the topic from the other debates. Her quick answer was a "No". This all must've been her research from childhood. So, a PhD might've a good prospect!
From outside the circle, you can derive a more impartial opinion.
Yeah, it's true. I've never engaged myself into any romantic relationship. Just ran away from it.
It does not matter whose influence it is. The essence of the problem is the influence itself. Giving the alibi of "media" is not a plausible excuse.
Again, you mix fantasy with reality.
