Love is a Fallacy

The story Love is a Fallacy by Max Schulman's was a good story. It's interesting at first. But as I go on...the phase changed...I got angry...I feel funny..then sad...

It was so persuading at first. Why persuading? Just to tell you the truth, I really don't know what a fallacy is. That's why I got interested. And of course, it's about love,that why I got persuaded....

After reading the story, I was so confused .It was really a confusing story. I don't know why. Maybe until now I still do not know what a fallacy is. I don't know why it was entitled Love is a Fallacy. Polly did chose Petey over the narrator. Just because he got a raccoon coat.

I really got angry at Polly at first because she is so damn dumb. She seems not to get the point. Then I felt fun when the narrator was teaching him another "logic" thing. Then I got sad when Polly didn't chose the narrator. He was a good man. You can't ask for more(unsa, PEPSI).But still she liked Petey because of a stupid reason. I really hated Polly because she cant see the real person behind the main character. She didn't ever recognize the efforts of the guy. She is so selfish. And what made me angrier, is the fact that she chose the one who she love(or should I call it LUST) ,because of a raccoon coat.

Many people are being pointed out in this story...This just shows that many people are drag by the popularity of the person or the influence of the person.Polly didn't feel love for Petey.Its actually LUST. Lust is very common now a days.We say we like the person or even say that we love the person but actually its lust. We don't like the person for who she/he is really what.We like the person for what he have.in short, we don't like the person itself but the thing that the person is wearing.

I have learned a lot from the story...What are the kinds of fallacy...but I bet until now I still don't know why Love is a Fallacy...when it's actually not.If someone know, just post it as a comment....
