What are the first few things you think about that can finish the sentence "Love is..."
I'm not asking for a definition (I know there are a few threads about the definition, but this isn't the same thing). I'm just asking for something simple that you associated with love. Not "true love" or "in love" or whatever. Just ..Love. Simple as that... For me, the first few things that come to my mind are: "Love is not having to say you're sorry" Yeah. That quote from "Love Story" always gets me. I heart it. "Love is unconditional" When you love somebody, you don't expect them to do anything for you in return or love you back no matter what. "Love is patient, Love is kind, It does not envy, it does not boast,... " |

Hmm, I'd say love is.. that no matter what happens, you'll still care for the person and be happy for them, even if you're not in the picture. Yup. I think that's right. =]

Love isn't like anything else. It can't be explained or put into words. It just is.

Like you said, Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking...
Or that song. All you need is love...love is all you need. I think it's on a commercial? |

Love is the water that soothes the burn.
Love is the kiss that makes it all better. |

"Love is fair, and love is fine
Bright as a rose when first it's new But love grows old, and sometimes cold And fades away Like the morning dew.."  There's like a lot of versions of that, but that's the one I learned.

Here is something I'm working on... I like this thread... I think I have so much more to add too love.
Love is doing what’s best: You don’t always know what’s best, and the only thing that you can do is try your best. It takes practice. You need to learn how to love your partner by finding their needs. This is one reason why communication is so important (I’ll talk about communication later). At times love is even doing what’s best for you. This means that you have to know who you are too. Love is a choice: You make the choice to love. You make the choice to do what’s best. Although love can be associated with a feeling, it isn’t always going to be. Here’s an incredible saying, “"Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends." Now that’s a difficult choice. Love is a sacrifice: In many cases you have to do things that you don’t want to do because you love someone. This is a sacrifice. Similar to when someone hurts your feelings and you forgive them even though you feel like they should suffer for what they did. You don’t want to forgive them, but you do it anyways. You’re sacrificing your own want for their need of your forgiveness. This is a good example because I’m sure many of you can relate to it. Love is difficult: Here’s another great saying taken from the movie The Weather Man, “Do you know that the harder thing to do and the right thing to do are usually the same thing? Nothing that has meaning is easy. "Easy" doesn't enter into grown-up life.” If love was easy, then what would be the point? It’s easy to love during the good times, what about the hard times when the choices we make are difficult? It wouldn’t mean anything if it was always easy. |

i say love is...just the two of you, doesn't matter what people thinks or say it's just the two of that matters.
love is...life. it's as complicated, easy, confusing, hard to understand as life |
