A word that is commonly used to negatively refer to a person who is very idealistic and believes in supposed non-existent social constructs such as "soulmates", "true love", "peace on earth" etc. However, this needs to be reversed as there is nothing wrong with it and those who hate on naive people are just envious their innocence was already brutally shattered by some tragic mishap (i.e. being dumped or cheated on) People who are naive are not ignorant fools but rather they are people who dare to dream and go against the grain of the all-too-common cynical realist who love playing the role of joy killer And for the record, the concept of "true love" cannot be disproven either, so some people need to stop preaching like it's not real just because they suck at relationships Urban Dictionary
