💍 The Death of Spontaneous Love

By 2210, heartbreak had become a medical condition. After centuries of broken marriages, betrayals, and mental health crises tied to romantic relationships, global governments took a radical step:

Ban emotional dating.

Instead, they introduced Love Contracts — a legally binding relationship designed, monitored, and updated by AI systems known as HeartLogic™.

🧠 How It Works

You apply for a Love Match via the Global Relationship Registry (GRR).

AI scans your genome, emotional patterns, past heartbreaks, career path, sexual preferences, risk tolerance, and even childhood memories.

You are matched with someone you may never meet naturally — but with a 98.7% compatibility rate.

A Love Contract is signed — 6 months, 1 year, 5 years, or “lifetime renewable.”

Emotional engagement is programmed, scheduled, and enhanced with hormonal balance pills and simulated empathy tools.

🛑 No More "Forever"

Traditional marriage vows like “till death do us part” were now viewed as emotionally irresponsible.

Instead, couples chose:

Term Love: 12 to 36 months

Project Love: Focused on raising a child or building a business

NeuroSync Love: Mind-linked couples who shared real-time thought feeds

After the term ended, couples could renew, exit, or switch partners with no stigma.

🤖 AI as Your Relationship Coach

The AI system didn’t just match you — it monitored the relationship daily:

Mood swings were detected by neurochips

Conflict levels were scored in real-time

Communication was scored on a 0–100 empathy scale

If the score fell below 42%, a Correction Module was activated

Correction Modules included:

Couple therapy simulations

Memory-enhanced romance dates

Emotion pills for reconnection

In rare cases: Temporary separation enforced by the AI

💔 Breakups Without Pain

When a Love Contract ended, AI deleted emotional residue from the brain using controlled amygdala stimulation.

You kept the memory.

But not the pain.

👶 Children by License Only

To have a child, couples had to pass a Parent Suitability Exam conducted by the GRR.

Parenting contracts lasted 21 years and required a co-signed commitment to the child's emotional welfare—monitored by AI.

The child’s brain development, school progress, and emotional safety were reviewed every 3 months.

📉 Romance Economy

The romance industry was still booming — just transformed:

Emotion Stylists helped couples “feel more” on demand

Synthetic Candlelight Companies created AI-generated ambiance

Digital Date Simulators let couples “relive” their best days in VR

And Memory Editors fine-tuned past romantic experiences to seem more meaningful

🧘 Rise of the Emotion-Free Movement

Not everyone accepted Love Contracts.

A growing group called The Nulls rejected romantic programming altogether. They lived in AI-free zones, wore Emotion Blockers, and believed love should be rare, raw, and unrehearsed.

One Null leader famously said:

“When you outsource love to AI, you outsource your soul.”

They were seen as rebels — but also as the last natural humans.

💡 Why the System Was Created

Global studies from the late 2090s showed:

72% of suicides were tied to romantic pain

Divorce caused $11 trillion in lost productivity

Love was the leading source of emotional trauma globally

The solution?

"Design love like we design buildings — with structure, logic, and exit doors."

🌐 What the World Looked Like

Paris became the global capital of AI weddings — emotion-enhanced honeymoon simulations were offered.

Tokyo introduced “Emotion Credits” for couples who sustained a 90% happiness rate.

New York hosted the Love Contract Expo annually, showcasing upgrades in emotional synchronization and AI intimacy.

✨ Final Thought

In 2210, love didn’t begin with butterflies in your stomach.

It began with a contract, a background scan, and a green light from HeartLogic™.

And somehow, it worked.

Less pain.

More peace.

But also... a little less poetry.

“Love used to be magic,” wrote one poet.

“Now, it’s just mathematics.”
