Love better be more than sex! That does tend to slow down as the years go by, then what? Love is where you put your partner's needs above your own, you want the best for them, you want to be with them and do things with them. You devote/commit your life to each other. You are able to be your true self with them and not have criticism. My wife and I say/do things that we'd never do or say in public. We have fun together and trust one another fully...we know the other person would never say anything about it. You have to put on so many masks in life...with a true love, you can take them off. You can tell all your fears, worries, concerns or anything else to the person. They listen and try to help. You love someone, you want to be with them till death, not till the sex runs low! You need communication and need to spend time doing things you both like to do. Love is great, the sex is just a nice byproduct of it. I love my wife and I couldn't imagine life without her. Hope this helps.

Lust is sexual desires that need fulfilled.
Love is maturity.
Growing up and finding that there are only two people in the World that matter, you and her.
Its going through the heart breaks, the trials and tribulations and growing closer with each disaster that comes your way.
Love is having Faith in each other, for doing the "right thing", and knowing that you can depend on the other.
Love is a bond, that will never be broken.
Love is the freedom to discover yourself and always have him/her near you to pick up the pieces when you find that you dont really like what you are, but that they still love you for what you will be to them.
Love is change. She will change you into something that she wants or knows you can be, and you will accpet her for what she is no matter what age does.
Love is more than you know, or will ever guess about each other...
I wish you well..

No it's not. Sex comes with love but you don't have to love someone to have sex with them. Love is totally different. Love is when you know that you can be with that person for the rest of your life. Love is when you know you want only that person. Love is when you can't describe how you feel. Love is when you would do anything or everything for that one special person. Love is when you will stick behind that person till death do us part. That is what i think LOVE is!

According to Robert Sternberg's research, "Love" is an emotion consisting of three components: intimacy, passion & committment.
Intimacy, the feeling close and connected to someone (developed through sharing and very good communications over time). Intimacy is what makes you want to share and offer emotional and material support to each other.
-Intimacy alone is Liking (true friendship without passion or long-term commitment)
Passion, the feeling physically aroused and attracted to someone. Passion is what makes you feel "in love" and is the feeling most associated with love. It also rises quickly and strongly influences and biases your judgment.
-Passion alone is Infatuation (passionate, obsessive love at first sight without intimacy or commitment)
Commitment, pledging to your self and each other to strengthen the feelings of love and to actively maintain the relationship. Commitment is what makes you want to be serious, have a serious relationship and promise to be there for the other person if things get tough.
-Commitment alone is Empty Love (decision to love another without intimacy or passion)
Romantic Love: Intimacy & Passion, no Commitment
-Lovers physically and emotionally attracted to each other but without commitment
-“As in a summer romance”
Companionate Love: Intimacy & Commitment, but no Passion
-Long-term committed friendships or a marriage in which the passion has faded
-I love you but I’m not IN love with you
Fatuous Love: Passion & Commitment, but no Intimacy
-Commitment based on passion with without time for intimacy to develop
-Shallow relationship such as a whirlwind courtship
Consummate Love: A complete love consisting of all three components

your definition of love is wrong. "love" is a special feeling for someone who you truly care about passionately and intimately with commitment along with it. "lust" is nothing but sex... that's what you're talking about.
