loving isn't easy, but it seems like our generation struggles the most with it. maybe we need to give it another shot. https://linktr.ee/thezurkieshow
Chapter 1: What do we really want in love?
i just want someone who will like me and love me for me that's really what i want i think that's what a lot of us want there are so many questions in this life that i wish i already had the answer to first why is a date at chile's sixty dollars why is that because that's crazy next what is that thing in the sky in new jersey okay i keep seeing videos of it What is that? Is it a drone?
Is it an orb? What is that thing? And lastly... What is love? Baby, don't hurt me. Alright, enough with the pipes. Unk used to sing. Not anymore. Now he sings once in a while. What is love? What is love? because whatever it is, I'm pretty bad at it. I am not the goat of love. And I think that our generation, Gen Z, we've been hurt a lot in love because we don't know what it is.
we don't know what it is we think we know because on instagram love seems to be you know a vacation to cancun every week it seems to be getting spoiled by your significant other with a brand new mercedes and uh kendra scott necklace and getting uh you know a stanley cup and all those things you know seem cool and awesome i mean you know i guess but That's not what real love is.
At least I don't think so, and I think a lot of us have kind of realized that's not what love is. But it's what people tell us love should be, you know? Nah, don't compromise yourself, man. Get a girl who's gonna listen to everything you say and isn't gonna challenge you. Oh my gosh, he's not for you.
If he doesn't want to buy you, you know, front row seats at the next Commander's game, he's not for you. Really? Really? That's love? It's things people buy you, experiences they can afford to give you? Yes, I think part of it is, for sure. Because if you're being stingy with the coin, you might be stingy with your love, absolutely. But that's not what love is, and a lot of us, we don't want that.
I don't really care if my significant other is going to spoil me and get me the, you know, I don't know, messy Stanley Cup. I don't care about that. I don't really care that my significant other can read my mind and wants to get me the cold Palmer jersey that I've been wanting for a while because he's the goat. He's so good. Oh my gosh. Cold Palmer, man. I love you so much.
Anyways, like I don't really care about that. I don't care. What's more important to me is that, you know, they're interested in the fact that I like soccer and it's a big part of my life and I love playing it and I love watching it. Like, that's more important to me. Them spoiling me once in a while, it's cool. Like, it definitely adds to it and you should, you know, get spoiled.
Like, yas, you know, you should. But, like, I just want someone to share life with. I just want somebody who is gonna ask me how my day was when I come home and I'm like in turmoil and I'm like this day was terrible. I just want someone who will like me and love me. For me, that's really what I want. I think that's what a lot of us want. And it feels like impossible to get that. It feels crazy.
To say that. Because you're so much better than that. What, that I just want somebody who's going to like me? Like, not really. Okay, and hold on. I'm going to take that back. Because we need to find our significant other, in my opinion, attractive, right? Like, you have to like them. And what might be attractive to some people won't be attractive to other people.

Chapter 2: Why do we misunderstand love?
have a golden personality if you are an interesting person if you're a caring person like majority of the time if you go up to someone in real life not over the phone they're going to have a conversation with you they're going to like you probably but we don't do that because this has become the epicenter of everything oh phones are bad but that's not the answer either it's not that because the phones are not going away it's not going to go away
It's only gonna become, you know, more intense, you know? VR headset, VR girlfriend, that's the future. That's the future. And that's not love. No AI can generate you the feelings, the butterflies you get when you go up to someone you find attractive and you say, hi, my name is blank Jeff. My name Jeff. And you say, I think you're very pretty. What's your name? My name's Alyssa.
Where are you from? Oh, I'm from the Bay. I love Alenium. Okay. Alyssa. Alyssa. Listen, I don't want to take up too much of your time, but I think you're really pretty. I'd love to get coffee with you. Would you be down for that? You know, I have noticed you've been looks maxing, so yes. Except the last part. No one's going to say that in real life. But like, what is love? I don't know.
Nobody knows. The moral of the story is love is trying. Love is giving it a shot. Love is knowing you're going to make mistakes is knowing you're not going to be perfect. It's knowing that the end of the day, that other person has your back. That other person cares for you and they want what's best for you. That is love.
And a lot of us, we haven't even opened ourselves up to love and it needs to change. And I'm part of the problem. I need to stop giving up on love. I need to stop telling myself, well, it's cooked out there. Like it's just done. When I can go to a public event, when I can go and meet people, when I could talk to people, the gift of gab, I can gap at people. You probably can too.
You probably can too. I gotta stop living like, you know, I'm living in a video game and I haven't unlocked the levels in order to have love. That's not true. It's not true. That's what I think love is. It's trying. Because what is the other option? What? What? Scrolling on my phone until like 3 a.m., looking at things I shouldn't be looking at that are corrupting my brain.
Like, no, that's not the other option. I mean, that is the other option, but that sounds terrible. It sounds just bad. And we have the power to catch ourselves. Like, we're young. A lot of us are very young. Even though we think we're super old and we're unk. No, we're so young. Life is long. So if you want love, if you want to be loved, love yourself first and try. Go out there.
It's going to be a long battle, but you will find it. And there's a difference between trying to look for love, right? Like I'm looking everywhere, blah, blah, blah. But just like go out there, experience things. Be yourself. You will attract the love you deserve. You will attract the love that you deserve. You will. You will. But just go out there. Go out there. Zerky Show.
Jeez, this was a passionate one because I don't even, I don't know. I don't know and I'm not going to sit here and act like I do because that is a big pet peeve of mine when people are like, yeah, I know. You have no idea. You got no clue. Zero clue. I'll be honest, I don't know. I can only tell you what I think love is. But do the things you love because this life is a short one.
