Q4All: Can we please ditch the concept of "true love"?

The kind of love I'm talking about - unconditional love, the "in sickness and in health, for rich or for poor" doesn't exist.

You're wrong about this. I'm not by nature a super giving and generous person, especially in terms of physically taking care of people. I love children but find the process of taking care of an infant exhausting and miserable. But if my husband got sick, if he lost his job and we ended up on the street, I tell you what. I would love him just as much as I do now. I would be tender and devoted to him, I would stoically push through my pain, just as I do for my precious baby. My heart is so swollen with love for him that it hurts sometimes. He's not rich, and he's very handsome to me but he doesn't look anything like what redpill thinks an ideal man looks like. But he taught me unconditional love. He loved me unconditionally even when I couldn't reciprocate because I was too broken, cynical, and self-protective. His love opened me up and triggered something deep and profound in me. And I would never leave him, no matter what happened, even if there were no society to pressure me. He is mine and I am his, for life.
