Love is a mysterious power and is hard to come by, true love that 
            
 is.  It can come and go or it can stay and be real.  But people tend to abuse love 
            
 and move towards lust and selfishness.  This is how people can get hurt 
            
 emotionally and even physically.  In the short story "The Chaser", the 
            
 character Alan teaches a valuable lesson; you can't force true love, and fake 
            
 The beginning Alan tells us a little about his situation, he is
            
 completely into his girlfriend and has gotten to fall in love with her.  But he wants 
            
 her to love him just as much as he does.  So he checks up on a potion specialist 
            
 for a potion for love.  This is a mistake in the  first place.  He should have thought 
            
 of some alternative solutions, like being kind and giving her gifts to show he
            
 feels about her.  If he fails at that then they just weren't meant or it takes more

 		Now things have gotten serious about buying this love potion, 
            
 after all the old man tells him everything that he wants to hear.  The potion will 
            
 create a tight bond, the woman who takes it will be always by your side and 
            
 always worried about you.  But he just does not see through to what will happen
            
 in the end.  Love must come natural, if he really cared for her then he would
            
 leave her be and accept their differences.
