"They need either somebody or something to love in order to have a motivation to keep going."

I disagree with this premise. If your life is dependent on someone else living, then you're not really doing much living yourself. What happens if that person dies? Time to commit suicide (or maybe a massacre) because you have no reason to live any more? In an apocalyptic setting, people die a lot so it's probably the worst idea ever to hing your life's motivations on the existence of another human being. I mentioned it before in another comment that Finn was too immature to survive an apocalypse and this kind of hang-up of living for another person is more evidence of that.
