Just a person Actually this is what it is for me. love is accepting everything thats wrong w/ a person w/out even knowing that it annoys u. Its thinking about them when they aren't around and when they are. It's being so caught up in an emotion that the rest of your brain just shuts down and you can only think of them and nothing else. FOr me its playing stupid love songs over and over in my head until all the words disapear except the line that says i love u which keeps repeating. Its crying when theyre in pain or u dont see them and being on their side even when nobody else is. its just wanting that person so bad even if theirs no chance of them feeling the same way and you cant stop it it just is. If love really could be defined to exactly what it is it would take a lifetime to try and say it and even then it wouldn't be enough. Love is..... 4/8/2005
Just a person love cant be defined in words.

just emotions.

My experience Some people use "LOVE" discribing how much they like "THINGS". No, love is the ultimate bind between two people. Love to me is a heart and soul attachment with another person. Wedding vows say two coming together to become one. That's the binding I refer to. If my partener hurts I hurt and vice-versa. If my partener is happy . . . When I want something/someone in a way that will hurt my partener I walk away. God loves us unconditionally, but HE expects us to come to HIM with honesty, confessing our sins, asking HIM to come into our hearts. I believes true love between people carries then same expectations. But . . . who am I? 3/25/2005
Olga Love is a heavnly feeling that fills up your heart.... but real Love is very rarely achived though at its height is's an ecstasy 3/24/2005
ForSure God is love, I know that for sure; He loved us so much that He sent His only Son Jesus Christ to die for our sins so the curse would be broken , if we believe in Him we won't perish... As for my own experience, I'm still wondering, if what I feel for one guy is love, he says he loves me and I can see it in his eyes, but i'm confused about my own feelings. Our love just looks so different from God's love, go figure.. 3/21/2005
Dr. Deepanjan love is our sweetest song with saddest rendation..............it pains we know still we enjoy........It makes us cry still we cherish..................still we love to love & to be loved!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 3/21/2005

bellie .. =) love is an obsessive feeling over someone.
u go out of ur mind .. beome easily irritated and start noticing adverse effects on ur life.. in pain yet also in true happiness such that u would fall apart if ur other half was not beside u anymore.
holding each other tight is enough to fulfil ur day

Juan Cruz Love is a feeling, a strong feeling for another person a person you cant stop thinking about, a person that means every thing to you, a person that completes you ,but love never I mean never dies. Once you experience Love you'll know what I mean. One more thing I belive in.There is one true love for each person and it all takes time. 3/16/2005
Latisha What does love mean to you 3/5/2005
Christy Brandon Since love is relational, it needs to be at least 2 people involved. Love is not just what you get out of a relationship- it is what you give as well. If needs are not being met, it is usually because you have different styles of communication. You speak different languages. What means love to you, may not be what means love to the other person. If it is true love, you need to make the committment & have the patientence to figure out the best way to communicate your love that your partner can relate to & recieve in the loving way that you intended. 3/5/2005
Al Baur Falling in Love
Falling in love is a temporary experience and is triggered by having needs that are not able to meet by yourself.
The moment that you meet someone that is able to meet these needs the potential to fall in love is there.
Then the process of having your needs met begins and once they have been satisfied the feeling of being in love and affection disappears.

To Love
To love is to be aware of and to appeciate all that is taken or given in order to fulfil your needs.

Loving Yourself
Loving yourself is the awarness of advancement in understanding life.

Loving all that exists
Is the awareness that you are part of all that exists

Loving God
Is being aware of your limitations and inability to comprehend the enormity of all that exists and this awarness transforms into intense appreciation and submission.

Falling in Love
In order for people to maintain their needs, even at the most basic level (food, warmth, and housing) they will have a need for, i.e. fall in love with, someone who can provide them. People who long for security, especially women fall in love with someone who will provide for them and secure their basic needs. However, once their needs are satisfied the feeling of being in love fades quickly and the satisfied individual is left wondering why they were attracted to the provider in the first place.
The main trigger for a man to fall in love is his sexual needs. Once a woman has fulfilled a man's sexual needs/fantasies, she loses her appeal to him. The man will them look for either a new partner or new sexual adventures.
It would seem that if we wish to have that "in love" feeling constantly, we can only have it if partners are willing to live apart and to never feel content. This seems to be a crazy idea.

To love
To feel love is to reflect on what we are and how it came to be.
We feel love for a person the moment that we are aware of what they have to offer us that we can not provide for ourselves.
In other words, the person that satisfies our needs is the person that we are able to love.
The more of my needs are satisfied, the more love i feel. This feeling of love comes from appreciation through awarness

Samantha Love is a feeling u get. u think of the person all day or almost all day. U love being around them and miss them wen there gone. Somethin in ur body feels different wen ur with them. U understand them and they understand u. Love is like trying to describe colors to a blind person its kinda impossible! 2/25/2005

youngheart Love is patient love is kind, Love endures in many ways. As Long friendships become stronger as the love endurea and ties a tight bond between them. Love is where you'll never want to leave them, love is when you cant stop thinking about them, love is when want to hug them and please them. Love is when you know what they are feeling, or what they are thinking at the moment. Love is passion. Love can never go away. 2/19/2005

meg I believe love is a choice. you choose to be in love. U may have strong feelings for someone, but that same fire isn't going to be burning forever. When you go through problems you choose if you want to work them out. they don't work themselves out. 2/14/2005

Trish Love is thought -provoking, yet without thought. Love is having everything and knowing nothing, yet it is knowing everything and having nothing too. Love is the closeness of having togetherness, love is the solitude of isolation. 2/9/2005
wordsofwisdom Love is a feeling for someone who was not part of your life and now is and have grown feelings for. Love is also something everyone has because u have love for ur family members . .you just have to let it grow in a relationship. I am in love right now and she is in love with me . .this isnt my first time. ..and I am sure it wont be the last but when u r in love u dont want it to be but u got to accept that ... happens n no one can do ne thing about it..its only a feeling that grows on u and learn to accept it... 2/4/2005
LOVESUCKS love is hard, when you love someone so much. You are making yourself open to getting hurt. and that is what happen to me. I am trying to be friends with someone t hat i loved but its hard to do. Sometimes i hate him, i really do..........but then i relized that since i have open my heart to someone, i also open my heart to heart. Like right now i am talking to him on the phone and my heart is breaking, beacuse i know that he will never feel the same way about me 2/3/2005
Xerratul Love is a word, it is a man made name for something that the human mind will never grasp... it is thrown around so easily that alot of people get hurt and cheated on because they cannot understand the CONCEPT OF LOVE, its beyond any of our descriptions its a spiritual state that must be maintaned and fed, its not a simple thing and never can be written down or spoken of so easily. we can say we "love".. but we dont find love.... love tears thru the vale of life and finds us.... what is love? A stone at the bottom of a stream, that is smoothed over by time, becomeing more beautifull as the years flow by eventually found and kept incased for its beauty and power to over come all elements.. 2/2/2005
LOVESUCKS love can be good and bad. love will make you cry. sometimes it can make you mad. love can make you happy. 2/2/2005

AEASA What do I believe in, I believe there is a reason things happen in life, what happens today is only the next move in life, just like the game of chess. I believe, that ridiculous love is not inconvenient, but a happy worth while event in your life to reflect back on and smile about. (kind of like butterflies in your stomach). I believe, love is taken for granted to many times, I believe, love can be conveyed in different ways instead of just saying it. I believe love is only found by people who appreciate it and want to make it grow. And the funny 1/30/2005

T.D.T form m.tx Love is what you really feel it could be. It's feeling a special way about someone. It's losing them but you can't let them go. It's never moving on to someone new.It's the most greatest feeling you could ever have. 1/17/2005

I believe love is only found by people who appreciate it and want to make it grow. And the funny thing about love not only does it make you feel special, but if used in the wrong way it can bring you to your knees in tears and…… I think you can figure the rest of the story out from there.

SoccerChic Love has no exception. It is mutual. It is a feeling that is created by two people. If only one person loves then it isn't love. If love has conditions, then it isn't love. Love isn't just in the physical mind. 12/27/2004

Reese LOVE is patient and kind.
LOVE is not jealous or boastful or proud or rude.
LOVE does not demand its own way.
LOVE is not irritable, and it keeps no record of when it has been wronged. It is never glad about injustice but rejoices whenever the truth wins out.
LOVE never gives up, never loses faith, is always hopeful, and endures through every circumstance.
LOVE will last forever...

goth_kimmy love in my opinion... Its where one has a strong feeling inside that takes over. You feel whole, and safe. You heart and soul and body are physically and mentally is attracted to one's love... I could DIE for love!

And if god loves us why isnt he here, to help those who need it most...
