What Is Love?

[Tuxie]

I'd like to get some of your definitions of what love is? Please share with us your thoughts...


Love is both a emotional and physical attraction to someone or something. This attraction has several different levels.... ranging all the way from 'puppy love' to 'lifetime commitment love'. :D

Hi tuxguy...

I think u had a great idea..people have very ideas about the meaning of "love"

Love...for me is a strong feeling to another person...is somehing surreal..and extremely good...love is the best feeling someone can have...

it's the "boom" of a friendship...

don't forget..love implies a great friendship...and above all..it's a friendship...

we need a great friendship to have a great "love"...

thanks everybody...;)

Love is the topic on which every people have their own definitions...But i think Love is not the topic to talk about it is the thing to feel when you starting feeling it automatically you understand what is it...? Am I right...?:)

Hello Mr. T: Love is what you make of it. There are people, such as myself, that scream, holler, get easily frustrated, stand-offish, bitter, etc. with my husband, but I still love him. We still go to bed and end our day as a couple though. Having children doesn't make a marriage easy. We didn't even argue at all before the children came along. And, dealing with my husband's mother every day, isn't easy for me either. I know she means well, but she is not MY mother. Love is never having to say you are sorry. Love is being understanding, comforting, bitter, sweet, tolerant, and sometimes you could even add the word controlling. Love is what you make of it. You may find a couple that has never argued with one another, but inside of themselves, they are burning, practically ready to explode with anger, because they never expressed to each other the way they are feeling at the moment.

People fake with each other, and how they feel about the person that they are with. They shouldn't do this though. Life would be so much better if everyone was able to tell the truth, and not lie to keep things straight. Things finally come down on them in the end, and the relationship is surely to die. I hope you and T lasts for a lifetime. You sound like a decent couple. Maybe one day, I will even meet you in person. You never know. Have a great day.

Sincerely,

Love is beautiful, but only those that are faithful to one another, are church going and abiding citizens, caring, apologetic, and sympathetic to each other, know what love is.

There are people that argue everyday, yet make love when they go to bed at night. It is not just a physical thing between them at that point. They are feeling each other bodies, and they are feeling love and warmth at the same time. They are loving each other and bonding with one another.

Then there are those that love one another, yet sleep in separate beds. Love is funny. Life is funny. You make the word, "love", for another person the best way you know how.

love is when someones needs become as important as your own..........

love is ...being able to be yourself with the other person an vis versa

Romantic love is physical attraction, deep emotional attachment along with care and concern for that person's well-being. You feel like you want to spend all your time with that person. It means you'd do anything to make the other person happy. It makes a kind word from them mean the most to you. In my opinion, if you are questioning and uncertain...my guess is you are infatuated, not in love. I know I love Tuxie. He's the best!

Love does not involve physical attraction, maybe it does. There all these names people give to love, including the ones mentioned earlier in this thread. Puppy love, romantic love, hot love, funny love, etc.

A couple met each other for 2 weeks, going out together for another 2 weeks and they call it love.

Love involves a few certain and uncertain things, making a choice a to love is to choose to care for the S.O, of health, well-being, future, responding to the needs of S.O and at the same time wanting something back. This is where some may say there is such thing called "unconditional love", to me this is not entire true because we at least want something in return such as nice encouraging words, companionship, faithfulness, even the smallest sign to show that the other person loves us back.

Love doesn't come with an instruction manual, it doesn't come with a long list of items to be fulfilled. Love makes you want to open yourself to the S.O and from this, we start doing a number of things such as sharing our life, our secrets, our trust, swimming across the sea, start a war, take a bullet, become mature, become childish, etc.

Love in a much bigger part is the appreciation we have for things our S.O do. Things they didn't really have to do in the first place, when we stop appreciating these things we don't feel that we love them as much, as well as the S.O won't feel loved as much or at all.

There are so many more levels, the above are just the surface of what it could be.

I wish I knew. I thought I did but it's complete mystery for me. But I definitely think mature love has to involve physical attraction. Chemistry.
