There is no real answer to this question but what I have learned of what love is to me is...
(L)isten: and Validate them by hearing and empathizing.
(O)verlook: their minor character flaws as they will overlook yours.
(V)alue: who they are and what they mean to you.
(E)xpress: how you love them not just with words but with actions.

When you hurt for the lack of love it's hard to see that there is love all around you. The easiest love to see is a mother looking at her child. Once you can see that all the doors open and using that same look you can see love in people for others or even objects. However, if you feel alone and rejected there is not much love to be seen but it is there and it will come to you if you meet it half way. It's so hard to be alone AND that will change it just take time and that is what makes the empty nights so long.

A lot of time people believe they love, but what they believe is love is infact selfishness. People play with other people lives saying they love, but they intimidate, abuse, accuse and dominate others in the name of love.
Real love is when you put others before your own self. Real love is not hurtful, it is not dominating, it is kindness, gentleness, compassionate.
Real love will stand long sufferings, it will endure all in all. Most times we can't see love because we have been so hurt from it that all we feel is pain and we wonder what is really love. When we learn to love God's way then and only then we will be able to see and experience that feeling called LOVE.

For one you talk like God showing you love is a medeocre thing. I love when God shows me love becasue it's just what I need. As far as not being able to see love, it's simple. THink about all the things we can see, then think about how thats manipulated and we see one thing but usually that isn't whats going on. With Love you have to feel it out. Or else you will be tricked, thats why we have intuition.

Read Plato's "Allegory of the Cave". We can't see things because we're not used to looking at realness; we only look at images of what is real. It hurts to really see things at first and it is a constant becoming as life moves along. God is the only real thing there is, and if you believe that God sees you then you already do see real love.

God is Love and we can't see it because we are living in a self deluded state of mind generated civilisation in which all actions are performed in a transactional manner. Instead of owning subjectively as part of His creation we are trying to know it in an objective manner. Real love is the Love of God which is not an obligatory transaction of the Egoistic Self but obliterated transformation of Ego in Self.

Love is an unspoken language. You can't see it but you can sure feel it. People say they can see it when they look at someone.

love is like a scented flower which on blooming not only smells gud itself but also spreads frangrance around itself. so if u r in love not only u r happy but u spread happiness around u. ur friends, ur parents, ur loved ones all must feel happy wid ur love. n just like fragrance and happiness can just be felt and not seen, hence love can also be just felt and not seen.
