1. Romantic Love Will Cause You To Misperceive Reality - “A magnifying glass, in effect, tricks your eyes into seeing what isn't there. Light rays from the object enter the glass in parallel but are refracted by the lens so that they converge as they exit, and create a "virtual image" on the retina of your eye. This image appears to be larger than the object itself because of simple geometry: Your eyes trace the light rays back in straight lines to the virtual image, which is farther from your eyes than the object is and thus appears bigger.”

2. Romantic Love Brings Focus To Your Unresolved Childhood Issues And Then Lights Them On Fire! - Light is an electromagnetic wave depending on how you look at it. It also carries energy. With a magnifying glass, you are concentrating the energy entering the area of a lens into a single point. That is sufficient to raise the temperature of a single point high enough for a chemical reaction to occur. Each ray of light contains a small amount of energy. If you have a magnifying glass that is 2" around, then without the glass in place, that light would go right through the empty ring where the glass would normally be and strike the paper. The energy is spread out. Now if you put the lense in place, it will take the same of light, and focus it on a small area the size of a point. All this concentrated light means a high localized energy, which is enough to heat up and burn the paper. It is not so much as the light as it is what the lense does to the light, it focuses it.
