WHAT IS LOVE?? How do we knew if it's love? How do we know if it's just some kindd of infatuation? Love is as scary thing to some people. Even the word can make anyone run because along with LOVE comes HURT. no one ever wants to get hurt. That alone will make anyone flat out run. Love is what we searched for all our lives. For someone to have and to hold and for someone to love. A someone who makes us complete. A someone who can make us whole an individual. Just being close to that someone. To know that they are right there every minute of every day. to be able to touch their face, and hear their heartbeat. to be soothed by their voice, to hold them close, smell their scent and taste their skin, to be able to look into their eyes and see everything i feel for them be reflected back at me. Having someone to love and knowing that someone loves you back That is the most beautiful place in the world to be. So, What is love??..... LOVE comes in every shape an form. LOVE lies in the eyes of the beholder LOVE is what ever you want it to be. LOVE is LOVE.

Uhh..okay. That was nice.
 What's the question? If it's "What is love?", I think there's already a topic on this somewhere.. |

that was a lovely description that i gave up reading on the fourth sentence...
 i think you have just answered your own question except that love is not suppose to hurt or make you cry and when you are in love you will feel it and you will know.

I agree that love comes with hurt because it's truly ridiculous to believe that there is someone out there who will never, ever hurt you. Come on, grow out of that fantasy. I'm not saying that it should hurt physically because that is definitely not love, I'm just saying that nothing is perfect. People will get hurt whether or not the pain was intended. No one is a mind reader and no one knows anyone wholly.

You'll know what love is when you experience it. It can't be easily described.

Love is like a trap. You don't know it's there, and when you get caught in it, it's extremely hard to get out of. My advice is, look for said trap and get caught. It's awesome.

I don't think love is when you go to sleep at night because you can't stop thinking about him/her, that is affection
I don't think love is when you think you're "in love" but you actually are in love of what he/she looks like, that's lusting. I don't think love is when you're together, you feel a conection and then say something about it later, that's fondness. I don't think love is when you say you love him but get over him in a week or so, that's a crush. I don't think love is when you're heartbeat beats faster when he walks in the room, or when he holds your hand, or when you want to hear him speak that's infatuation. I think love is when he actually puts that ring on your finger, or he makes a commitment to you saying that he will actually try his best for you guys to stay together. what do you think?

That could be bribery, too.  Just kidding.Everyone has a different definition for love, but I think it's something along the lines of: accepting someone not just as a person in general, but accepting them as a human being in every aspect of life, no matter how amazingly great or horrible they are at doing something, you love them regardless. Regardless of their past mistakes and faults, you love them because of how they make you feel, and vice versa. Loving someone because of all their bad and good qualities, no matter the extremities, because it's what makes them who they are as a person. Love is putting someone before yourself, and them doing the same. It's a give and take relationship which requires a much needed balance taken care of with respect, care, tenderness, and thought. When you can't bare the thought of them being hurt or upset and would do anything in the world possible, to make it all okay again. Sticking together and having each other there through the bad and the worst, because love isn't perfect. And being held safely in their arms when things couldn't be better. When you know all their little subconscious habbits or characteristics and their deepest dark secrets. When you know they're truly happy to when they're just faking a smile to get through the day, and you know something is wrong and you want to sincerely help them through it. No matter what others say or think, nothing can take you two from each other, when you're both determined to be together for as long as you can imagine. It's when you're willing to share and give your thoughts, mind, heart, soul, and body, and them respecting you enough to really love you, not just for sex. Sort of a..it's us against the world, kind of thing.  I'm done.

yeah, it's different for everyone.
but love can be anything that you make it, and it's obviously between you and that person. it's almost like no one can ever begin to know how it is-even if you tell them. it's just that amazing.

love is just a word it holds no expressions, no feelings, and over used. Wat is love its something u can't define no way to explain... u'll know when the time is rite and the person ur with is that special person for u. If you wanna show someone wat is love, prove it... dun say it. cuz its just another word.

~bites ring on finger~
I've been pondering that for the longest time. I understand the love between family members.. I understand the love I have for my friends.. But how do you know when it's right to tell a person, like between a guy and a gal.. "I love you?"  Infatuation? Crush? Love? How do you know? Trial and error? Do you just know when it is or happens? It's so frusterating I just give up trying to find a right time to try to mean it when using that word with relationships.

Alot of the guys think by saying "i love you" it'll get them laid or something, people needs to learn wat the meaning of a real relationship is... sigh... |

Thank you. I hope it does come to me eventually as well as to anyone else including your friends that are searching for it! It's a difficult subject for me even though I seemingly have a lot to say about relationships around createblog . I don't exactly understand it completely and rather not look like one of the kiddies that tarnish the word by using it on every guy I crush on. I think love is a precious word, I cherish the word as much as I do for the word hate. I don't want to be that bride telling the groom "You're the 37th guy I told this to, but trust me when I say I love you." |

"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." |

I guess love is finding someone that you truly admire, look up to, care for. It's about finding someone who you can get along with. Not just a b/f or g/f but love as friendship. |

idk what love is. all i know is that im love sick and even if *that one person* does something that would end a relationship, i always forgive them because people make mistakes & he juss happens to make the right ones. i cant explain it but i can never stay mad,because when i think of all the right hes done i learn to forgive. so there is no definition because everyone shows their love in their own way.

Love is when you feel you can talk to him about anything. Its also has some infatuation. Love is when he is your friend, but at the same time you feel a connection.

LOVE
It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return. But what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let the person know how you feel, and then regret. Maybe God wants us to meet a few wrong people before meeting the right one, so that when we finally meet the right person, we will know how to be grateful for that gift. Love is when you take the feelings; the passion and the romance in a relationship, and find out you still care for that person. A sad thing in life is, you meet someone who mean a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be, and you just have to let go. When the door of happiness closes, another opens. But often times, we look so long at the closed door that we do not see the one which had been opened to us. The best kind of friend is the kind whom you can sit on the porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you have ever had. It is true that we do not know what we have until we lose it, but it is also true that we do not know what we have been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they will love you back. Do not accept love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart. But if it does not, be content that it grew in yours. There are thing that you would love to hear, that you would never hear from the person whom you would like to hear them from, but do not be so deaf as not to hear it from the one who says it from his heart. Never say goodbye if you still want to try. Never give up if you still feel you want to go on. Never say you do not love a person anymore if you cannot let go. Love comes to those who still hope although they have been disappointed, to those who still believe although they have been betrayed, to those who still love although that have been hurt before. It takes only a minute of time to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone and a day to love someone. But it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Do not go for looks; they can be deceiving. Do not go for wealth, even that fades away. Go for someone who can make you smile, because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Hope you'll find someone to make you smile. There are moments in life we miss someone so much, so much that you just want to pick them up from your dreams and hug them for real! Hope you dream that special someone. Dream what you want to dream. Go where you want to go. Be what you want to be, because you have only one life and only one chance to do all the things you want to do. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet, enough trials to make you strong, enoigh sorrow to keep you human, and enough hope to make you happy. Always put yourself in other's shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person too. A careless word may kindle strife. A cruel word may wreck a life. A timely word may level stress. A loving word may heal and bless. The beginning of love is to let those who you love just be themselves and not twist them with our own image, otherwise, we love only the reflection or ourselves we find in them. The happiest people do not necessarily have the best of everything; they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness is or those who cry, those who hurt, those who have searched and those who have trieed; for only they, can appreciate the importance of people who had touched their lives. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, and ends with a tear. The brightest future will always be based on a learned past. You cannot go on in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches. When you were born, you were crying, and everyone around you is smiling. Live life so that when you die, you're the one who is smiling, and everyone around you is crying. |

Right, I'm not trying to be disrespectful or anything, but there are about 10209238 million topics on this forum about what people think love is... Your idea's on love are very interesting, and I don't want to discourage you from contributing to the community. Please, just find one of the other "what is love?" topics, and contribute to that.
It wouldn't be a bad Idea to sticky a "what is love topic" in the relationships forum... |
