[@HolleWalle]

From the million love songs out there this is the only one that hits me hard. It's about unconditional love and how even if it hurts it's still better than nothing, and well, I'm a very cold person who has never loved that way and it makes me sad to think what I'm missing, and even if I wanted to I can't just love someone like that, I'd rather feel nothing than deal with the pain. I see many people here because they relate on loving someone who didn't love them back and all I can say is: Love is NOT a mistake, don't regret loving, love is the only thing that can make you grow, whether it brings you happiness or pain, just know life is all about ups and downs and nothing lasts forever, so if you're in a good place, cherish it, and if not, know it is not forever.

This song hits me so hard every time i hear it, it's just so hard to explain. I knew it basically since my school years, listening to The Lumineers briefly from time to time and simply moving on to other bands and genres. I came back to this band and this song after a terrible break-up caused by me, my problems and what I did to my then-girlfriend for about a year, a friend for about four. I listened to it time and time again throughout several months alone, working on myself, bettering my mental status and overall mental health that caused all the problems. A year passed, fate made us cross our paths and come closer again, heal our scars and become a pair once again. Nearly two years from then, I'm listening to the song in our house, we're a few months away from our wedding and expecting a baby. Coming back to such hard-hitting songs makes you realise how far you've come and how many struggles you endured because of - and for this stubborn love. Stay strong Friends. It will be better one day - if you believe it and work towards it, eventually it's gonna happen.

[@honeyfruitcup]

My dad passed away December 2020, he was a fan of the Lumineers pretty early on. One thing I can remember him doing years earlier was sending me this music video and saying something along the lines of “no matter what happens I will always love you”. Of course being in my preteens I did not really think much of it. He and my mom did not have the best relationship but they tried for my sister and I. Almost two whole years since he has passed and I can’t even remember how long since that text message, but listening to this just fills me with this indescribable feeling. One that is painful and sends aches all over me, but slowly turns into a weird sense of comfort.

So I used to think this song was about unrequited love. Basically loving someone but not being loved back but the more I listened to it I feel like it's about ones ability to keep loving after they have been hurt over and over again. So the song is about love itself and the journey to find it. True love is one of the hardest things to find in life if you find it you are definitely one of the lucky ones. some people never find it. the more love fails you the more apprehensive you are to love again. Maybe I'm wrong but it made more sense to me when I started thinking about it that way. Keep your head up y'all ❤❤❤

[@comingrevolution3710]

Yes exactly, people love each others but life is complicated as emotions and there are many problems on the way but we learn and grow as we go so we need to keep our heads up and believe that everything will be alright and fall in place. Forgiving and letting go

[@moulshreesaxena7269]

I heard this song for the first time in 2015 when I was going through something very tough, which had me believe it's impossible to come out of it alive. This and a few more songs bring some very specific memories of that time when I was truly alone. These songs felt like warm hugs and long peaceful sleeps after one feels like one can do anything. My love for 'stubborn love' and these amazing artists is endless. I hope they're always happy and content wherever they are and will be. Their music bears great meaning to and impact on me and if I could create even a tinch of what they have, I will consider myself fortunate.

[@RosieWilliamOlivia]

"It's better to feel pain than nothing at all; the opposite of LOVE is INDIFFERENCE". I have heard this song many, many times over the years (I've played it myself, I was a bartender for 10 years so others played it many times, I play it still obviously) and somehow missed that little truth nugget in amongst the pleasant melody. Love and hate are sister emotions, if you want to leave someone behind become indifferent. I know this doesn't suit well with everyone but forgive those who hurt you. Not for them, but for you. You forgive them yourself and they fade away.... it's a nice feeling.

[@KungFuGuyJeremy]

Love and hate are opposite polarities of passion... positive passion = love, Negative passion = hate... think +100 to -100. Opposite of love OR hate is apathy/indifference... feeling zero.

[@ztwntyn8]

Stay strong men. Showing your emotions means you are strong. Running from them is easier at first but not in the long run. That leads to drugs/alcohol to cover it up. Pay attention to your mind and then move on. Anything profound takes time any change. The girl that hurts the most to leave also felt the best to have for an equal amount of time.

most ppl can't comprehend a difficult childhood: most ppl would give anything to go back to theirs, so it is rare to find someone who can understand the pain of "looking back". I understand, and agree! I took a few road trips as a kid: they were both scary and magical at the same time. circumstances made them scary, and the adventures made them magical.

[@cheryldahl9192]

also it's not the time that heals wounds, its all your other experiences made in that time that helps heal the wounds of a difficult childhood. but you are new experiences have to be better or it just adds to the pain of a difficult childhood.

[@HH0ps]

@@eyebelieve3 I literally came to the comments to find if anyone felt the same. I was literally talking to a friend earlier today about this exact thing. I mean its probably the most cliche thing in the world but its the bad times the make the good times so good. I mean in that sense life is kind of like a game of poker. Sometimes in life you are delt a shitty hand, and sometimes you are delt a lucky hand. You know some people are just born with a shitty hand, and yah that sucks and feels terrible every time, but I promise your hand doesn't really matter. What matters is what you do with it. Sometimes you have to just know when to take the hit, other times you take what you have to learn. Trust me the more time you spending learning with yourself means you will be in the best position you possibly can be when the right hand is given to you. This isn't supposed to make life easy, but life would not be fun if it was easy (lol yes I am a walking cliche at this point), so while life is down just keep doing the best you can and I will do the same. I can't tell you when or where it will get better but it will.

This video hits me in a different way. My Daughters mom pretty much just left in the middle of the night. Literally. The first thing I did after seeing all her stuff gone in the middle of the night, while I was at work; was to hug and cry with my daughter. I have been the single Mom/Dad for the past 4 years going on, since. I keep thinking and wondering if maybe I was way too lax in our relationship after 20+ years, or did too many wrong things. I never cheated, did drugs or whatever. Just had some real bad timing and luck go away. It's taken me years to start to climb out of a major depression about it all. So, a song like this relates in a different way. I've done everything in my power to keep HER "head up". Lets just say it's been a real struggle. - - - My head? - Idk if it'll ever be back "up". :-/

If the little girl had not smiled at the end, I would have cried the rest of the day..... It is the natural resilience of youth that makes us overcome problems as a child we could never cope with as an adult.

[@CntthnkO15]

Who teaches you this shit? That is just utterly wrong. There is, in essence, zero difference between children and adults. Especially in their ability to comprehend and apply logic and emotion. Age is, literally, nothing but a number. And second of all, this is a fictional story, has nothing to do with reality. This type of dramatic shit doesn't happen, nothing you see on TV happens, not in the way it is portrayed, ever.

[@luvorh81]

CntthnkO15 Except that there are big differences between children and adults especially in their ability to comprehend and apply logic and emotion. The brain doesn't fully develop until the early to mid 20's. Particularly the prefrontal cortex which controls judgement reasoning and impulse. Not to say that there aren't exceptions but age does have a littttle bit to do with it. And secondly yes, this is a story used by an artist to relate a certain emotion with a song. Does that make it unrealistically dramatic? No. The reason you feel real life isn't like television is because television shows us everything that is important to the plot line of the story. People in real life are too distracted by their daily lives and all of society to see what is truly important. They don't pick up on the important things thus they don't see the beauty.
