once you understand that love is a chemical reaction caused by certain stimuli you start to understand that "Love" the concept that society teaches is not real.
I don't think that is a logical conclusion.

It's true that the first steps (falling in love and having a crush on somebody) are much more enjoyable, but they have drawbacks as well, like obsessions and bad judgement. I'd say it is the intent that it should be like that. That doesn't mean that long marriages are worthless. They have things that a crush doesn't have, like stability and reliability.
In regards to having time for my interests, I think a marriage is so much better than a crush, as the latter takes a lot of the focus off from everything else and makes you kind of obsessive towards the object of the crush.
