Have you ever been, like... head-over-heels, fallen in love with someone? Cause I think I have, I'm just not so sure. I mean, it's like, hey- I'm 13, do I really know what love is? There's this person who I'm totally crushing, and I think I'm starting to fall for them. I've known them since like, 4th or 5th grade, and I always kind of thought they were just a friend, until sometime around Christmas last year. I never thought I'd have these feelings for anyone, really, although I did have a major crush on this one girl for like, years. But this time- I really think it's love. *shrugs* Maybe it's just a simple infatuation?

well im onliee 17 and i'd like to think the feelings i had for my ex and the feelings i have for my boyyfriend now are love..but im not completely positive about it. Like you said..do i realli know what love is?? All i know is that the feelings that i had for my ex are feelings i cant even begin to describe..and he is the onliee guy that has kissed me and i "felt all tingly inside" everytime i think about him or look at him i cant help but smile..im not shure if what i feel for him is love..but i'd like to think he was my first love and always will be..and my boyyfriend now..he treats so much better than my ex..and he is always there for me when i need him..we've shared so many things with each other that we havent even shared with our best friends..i had a "crush" on him for 3 years and i've been with him for 1..he is someone who can make me happy no matter how upset or sad i am..i dont know..i dont know if these are feelings of love..i know i have never felt them before tho..but anyway....enough rambling..i would define love as a close connection between two people..whether it is your parents..your friends..your pets..anyone...

define love = undefinable .. there! haha hMmM .. i`ve answered questions like this already and i always replied with a qoute. "the greatest challenge in life is to find someone who knows and accepts our flaws, yet willingly still embraces us with so much love" .. there are more, but i just decided to put this. i think that this is what love amounts to .. when one person can continuously embrace us with so much passion no matter our flaws. It can be our family, our friends , or that special someone.

Love has no age. There's a difference between loving someone and being in love with someone... Many people often abuse this. No one can tell you that you do not love someone... because you're just 13. They don't know what you're feeling for that person on the inside, are they? No.
Love to me is where you care so much about someone... that you'll do anything for them... you'll be empathic... and love them no matter what. Love isn't something you can control. When you look at someone you love... you see nothing but beauty, inside and out. When you love someone, you're not going to hurt them intentionally, you're going to look out for them

you can't define love; it's something that just happens and you feel it.

love has many deifinitions... but mine is that it can start at any age with anyone... its a feeling of importance... the butterflies you may get... the happiness you suddleny feel...

Love can be defined... but we all have our own defintions of love... it all depends on the person... but true love is when two people have the same

Nothing to define. It's just natural.

in my opinion, love shouldn't be taken so seriously. i love alot of people, i know. my definition of love is when somone or something makes you happy so you try to feel good off of it for as long as you can. for example: i was at a party and i was flirting with a cute girl. it was like miniature love because she made me happy and i wanted her to keep making me happy. but people usually go past the limit and don't want somthing to stop making them feel good. that's when they become attached and it's unhealthy. it's the part that people have most trouble with. the best ability to have when it comes to happiness is the ability to let go. and if you think that it's wrong and inhuman of me to bew able to discard feelings with ease, so be it. i'd rather be a happy slut than a sad emo kid er sumthin.

you can't define love. it's just a word until it's proven to you. you define love once you feel it in your heart and soul for yourself. everybody has their own meanings as will you. it could be love what you're experience but you have to give it time to grow before you'll really know. infatuation is often the case for most. so just wait and see what it may grow into =]

love is seriously undefinable. it`s a verb that you can`t really put your finqer on, you know?

love has so many dimensions, it all depends on for who and the circumstances, i quess

circumstances.. mmhmmm

Hmm, I should've made this topic 'Infatuation or Love?' cause it seems everyones defining love. :P But anyway, thanks guys for the replies. I'm still not so sure if it's just an infatuation or if it's really love. We'll have to see. :D

trying to define love is like trying to define 'sdfajkfhahfafa'-- you simply can`t. you have your iDEAL image of love, you have your dictionary definition... then you have your individual definition...

but i love this:

"love is always patient and kind; it is never jealous. love is never boastful or conceited. it is never rude or selfish. it does not take offense, and it is not resentful. love takes no pleasure in other peoples` sins but delights in truth. it is always ready to excuse, to trust, to hope, and to endure whatever comes" - 1 corinthians 13:4-8... (also in the movie, a walk to remember, haha..

OR that can be seen as infatuation/desparation/dependent on someone else..


if you love someone in the sense that it`s a growing love and relationship, then you can live with them AND you can live without them... but you`d prefer WiTH them.
