Would you sell your soul to Devil to find love?

[Astralshy 28,470]

Plain and simple: No

You can live without love and your soul is much more worth.

[Flying Pencil 3,026]

No. Finding love come naturally and selling your soul ain’t the way to find love.

[Clawdeen 16,062]

Don't give it to Satan. Give it to me instead. I'll put it in a nice little jar on my shelf.

Ehhhhhh I mean I'm bad at remembering to water plants. There's a chance it'll end up dried and withered in my care....but hey I'm goth so if anything a dead soul would fit in much better on my shelf than a lively one.

[Evil Pink One 13,523]

Yes but i want the devil to fall in love with me. HA GOTYA!

[Steve Piranha 29,480]

Hell no, that ain’t no small sacrifice 

[Iforgotmybrain 6,052]

Is heaven confirmed to be real in this scenario ? What’s the afterlife situation look like besides the devil and possibly hell being real? I need those details to make an informed choice.

No, but I'd sell him the spicy taco salad  

[Snoopy Fan 4,548]

Never in a million years. Actually, never in eternity.

[Clawdeen 16,062]

That would require me to have a soul to begin with 

[Raskolnikov 277]

I'm asexual so it doesn't apply - infinite vengeance on the other hand... 

[Acinonyx 280]

I'm right here - everypony, give me your delicious souls.

I don't have a soul to sell, I'm ginger

[Sparklefan1234 175,189]

No. Television shows have already ruined the concept of "love" and romantic relationships for me.

I sold my soul, my mind and my body to the Devil for love.

And it was for love, cause money sure as hell wasn't on the table, until She found someone who had a great deal of it. But that wouldn't be for another ten years. 

But...at a time and place of her own choosing the Devil tore my soul out of my chest, and left it there on the floor in front of me, and then the Devil kicked me out of Her life. 

It has nothing to do with heaven, hell or the supernatural. For some people, like people who don't believe in anything except the cup that is eternally half empty, getting into a romantic arrangement involving the Devil is just like buying a luxury car and then trading up for something nicer. More power to them.

As for the rest of us, who are not so clever as to realize that life itself is so far beneath us, those of us who showed love and trust and honored our vows or our commitments;

A romantic break up involving the Devil may well destroy your entire life. 

You may be homeless until you finally land in your parent's basement. Friends may ditch you. You very well might lose your job and struggle to find and hold another. Your investments and retirement may well evaporate. Children you may have brought into the world or at least raised may be out of your life forever. People who love you may be saddened by the sight of your face, and may struggle with resentment and disappointment in you on their end. 

Your own mind may well be filled with an emptiness you cannot fill, a rage you cannot quell, and sadness that cannot be cheered up.

Since there's always two sides to every story, and our society is so litigious, most people will look at a dead animal on the side of the road of a person and say;

- yeah well there's probably a reason,

- they're wallowing, it can't have been that bad,

- if they were smarter or more of an adult they'd have done this, or if they'd seen that, would have been preventable.

Warm sentiments, I've received them and I'm here to tell you that words like that make some people go through the whole process all over again in their minds, right then and there.

Some people aren't able to sleep anymore, the nightmares buckle and rattle their sanity, they cannot avoid unhealthly eating, they stop exercising or socializing.

And then there's our experts. I could say a lot about them, but I'll just say one thing. Much like the Devil, they are the type of people who never stop till they get everything they ever wanted. And nowadays they do, more often than not. So, you can imagine, they are actually great admirers, and thus advocates and sympathizers for the Devil. The ease with which the Devil can purchase your soul for love or some other desire is even considered a modern moral and social marvel. 

For my part, I profoundly regret having sold my soul to the Devil for love. The Devil did not want to steal or destroy my soul. It satisfied the Devil to tear it out of me, drop it on the floor in front of me and then tell me it had never been of any value to Her anyways. 

I cannot recommend that anyone sell their soul to the Devil, because I can't know what kind of person they really are in this regard. Maybe they're the type who doesn't really care, that's a not negligible percentage of the total population.

But, I would not wish what I've been through on my worst enemy. I had to pick my soul back up, set it back into my chest and try to learn to relate to it again. It has taken over nine years at this point, and there's just so much scar tissue that will never go away entirely. It's Nargly now, dude, know what I'm sayin? 

I'm telling you everypony, selling your soul to the Devil for love or for anything else is as a raw a deal as you can make. But don't think for a second that you cannot actually do it. You can, you absolutely do have the option. It has nothing to do with metaphysics or science or religion or atheism. If you think a lack of a belief in a supernatural entity will shield you from anything, then why are three atheists I've known in divorce groups no longer with us, by their own hand?

I'm begging you, don't sell your soul to the Devil.

I don't believe The Devil exists however if this is a rhetorical question, not taking his existence literally, I've heard of the saying a deal made in darkness is a bad idea, so no.

According to Folklore/fiction, The Devil usually wants something in return, and in this case, something you can never get back, freedom.

[IronM17 5,457]

Well, I don't believe into souls, god or satan. But if things like souls would excist, I don't think that I would give something from me to a immortal being who can do whatever with it just for finding love. So, no, I would not do it. 

[Midnight Insight 220]

I think true love must come naturally. Is it really true if you had to sell your soul for it? Love should add, not subtract; and starting a relationship by giving up your entire essence seems like a terrible idea.

That being said, I don't really know what "selling your soul" even means,  but if you make your significant other fall in love with an empty shell... that doesn't seems like true love.

You make a very good point.

Don't get me wrong, magic would be cool to use in some instances if we could have it, but not for this. Signing a contract that gets us damned to eternal suffering is an unacceptable trade off.

Moreover, as you said, love must come naturally

just as in my MLP FIM fanfic, if I were my OC, my imaginary self in Equestria, I would not under any circumstance want love forced on anyone, not by me or anypony else. The same would be true in real life with humans.

Nah, in my own words, or rather, lyrics "🎶I don't need no guy, just me, myself and I!🎶"
