Answer 2

Love is a condition or phenomenon of emotional primacy, or absolute value. Love generally includes an emotion of intense attraction to either another person, a place, or thing; and may also include the aspect of caring for or finding identification with those objects, including self-love. Love can describe an intense feeling of affection, an emotion or an emotional state. In ordinary use, it usually refers to interpersonal love, an experience usually felt by a person for another person. Love is commonly considered impossible to define.

The concept of love, however, is subject to debate. Some deny the existence of love. Others call it a recently invented abstraction, sometimes dating the "invention" to courtly Europe during or after the middle ages (though this is contradicted by the sizable body of ancient love poetry). Others maintain that love really exists, is not an abstraction, but is indefinable; being a quantity which is spiritual, metaphysical, or philosophical in nature. Some psychologists maintain that love is the action of lending one's "boundary" or "self esteem" to another. And others attempt to define love and apply the definition to everyday life.

Answer 3

Love is a way to describe comfort and the feeling of happy when you're with someone. Love is seeing them for all that they are and being able to love them with or without their faults. Love is understanding that a persons faults don't define who they are. Love is knowing the difference between a fault and something the person genuinely wants to change... and the ability to help them see ways to get past it. Love is having the ultimate respect for them, understanding the different moods, knowing what's wrong when they say, I'm fine.

Basically, love is knowing, understanding, and loving in spite of...

Answer 4

Love is a verb. It is something we do to bond with others and acquire the physical, emotional, intellectual and social things we want and need. It takes work, dedication, honesty, trust.
It is sometimes mislabeled as something that "just happens," however, this is untrue. There may be an initial spark that gets our attention, but love is what happens afterwards.

Answer 5

Dear Ms. Golden D's,

Love is a complex set of emotioins, based in ones heart. There have been many philosophers, song writers, poets, and novists tryint to define this feeling. I belive that love is different for all of us, and as such it is not definable by traditional means. Please read this story, and let me know your feelings....

A farmer had some puppies he needed to sell.
He painted a Sign advertising the 20 pups. And set about nailing it to a post on the edge of his yard. As he was driving the last nail into the post, he felt a tug on his overalls. He looked down into the eyes of a little boy.
"Mister," he said, "I want to buy one of your puppies."
"Well," said the farmer, as he rubbed the sweat of the back of his neck, "These puppies come from fine parents and cost a good deal of money."
The boy dropped his head for a moment. Then reaching deep into his pocket, he pulled out a handful of change and held it up to the farmer. "I've got thirty-nine cents. Is that enough to take a look?" "Sure," said the farmer. And with that he let out a whistle "Here, Dolly!" he called. Out from the doghouse and down the ramp ran Dolly followed by four little balls of fur.

The little boy pressed his face against the chain link fence. His eyes danced with delight. As the dogs made their way to the fence, the little boy noticed something else stirring inside the doghouse. Slowly another little ball appeared, this one noticeably smaller. Down the ramp it slid. Then in a somewhat awkward manner, the little pup began hobbling toward the others, doing its best to catch up.
"I want that one," the little boy said, pointing to the runt. The farmer knelt down at the boy's side and said, "Son, you don't want that puppy. He will never be able to run and play with you like these other dogs would."
With that the little boy stepped back from the fence, reached down, and began rolling up one leg of his trousers. In doing so he revealed a steel brace running down both sides of his leg attaching itself to a specially made shoe. Looking back up at the farmer, he said, "You see sir, I don't run too well myself, and he will need someone who understands."

In my oppinion, this is true love....
