opposite of building, i.e. destroying, but, analyzing what shapes and sustains these beliefs, which is its structure and which are its pillars, it also implies having the capacity to remember what has made these beliefs consolidated and in the future not to make that mistake again, and the way to do it is to understand, to understand what is the basis that has cemented the concept of romantic love today and from this understanding, to start working on it and deconstruct it, to begin to work on it and deconstruct it in order to have healthy relationships, based on a holistic form of love, in which beyond their sex, people benefit and can be empowered, so that someday, hopefully not too far away, love can grow and be empowered and never again, as it has been so far, be an imminent source of danger, especially for women. For all of what was mentioned above, change and progress in equality is linked to structural and profound changes, which are not only achievements in the legal, social and economic spheres, but also a liberation from all that has been learned and the erroneous beliefs that are held, such as love as a necessity, It is common for women who succeed in other aspects or non-traditional roles and who are independent, to feel incomplete if they do not have a partner, and it is romantic love that is the cause, which full of gender roles and stereotypes creates frustration and supports the idea that women are dependent people. It is hard work, but it is possible to break away from all these erroneous beliefs fostered by society. The sole purpose of life is not to get a partner, especially if we take into account that many of these relationships are unhealthy, because the moment in which people are empowered and take control of their lives, is the moment in which they can discern, choose, and see clearly what is real and what is not, it is at that moment in which they can transcend. While there are already achievements at different levels, and VAW is more visible than before, culture and society are responsible for showing not only the theory but also the practice and show how it is experienced, and this daily life shows a clear increase in femicides. Culture and society have been weaving the current concepts of VAW and romantic love; it is something constructed, and therein lies the answer, if people have generated the current reality, they can also change it. Having active roles, regardless of gender, questioning and governing their lives and being able to discern between what is imposed by society and what can really be beneficial is an important point, letting go of the erroneous belief that women are or should be submissive or are incapable or belong to the private sphere and that men should be providers and “macho” men who do not reflect their emotions is rewriting history. The change and revolution is seen in culture, in everyday life, and reaches the whole of society and its bases, bases that must change and abandon the patterns of domination and exercises of power; the change is generated by people who are wholesome and love each other from their completeness, with relationships in which there is no hierarchy, in which roles can be explored and do good and are not perpetuated by prejudices, people who are empowered, grow, have a holistic love or know new ways of loving, and thus also, the VAW will reduce. In synthesis, it can be said that there are differences between men's and women's interpretations of romantic love and VAW, and that these remain linked to traditional concepts that are unsatisfactory for both sexes and that perpetuate VAW, therefore the deconstruction of these concepts is necessary for profound changes in regards to these issues.
