"Love me, because love doesn't exist, and I have tried everything that does."?

i suppose he is being completely honest in this because well lets face it, love does not exist(while not entirely nonexistent as well) you see love is like any other emotion, it is not an object but really, a true abstraction. as a writer, and im sure all others could agree that we try our hardest to stay away from abstractions, we like concrete things.
