what is love?

Answer 1

I actually sat down and thought about this a while back and wrote down what came to mind. here's exactly what i wrote...

Love is waking up every morning and that person is the first thing on your mind. It's when you would do anything to see them smile and it breaks your heart so much to see them cry that you cry with them. It's when you want them to be happy even if it's not with you. Love is when every song you hear reminds you of them and every place you see makes you think of somewhere you've been with them. It's knowing that you want to spend every minute of every hour of every day of every year for the rest of your life trying to make that person understand exactly how much you care. It's when you do little things just because, it's being sad when you have to go. Love is when you know that you can't wait till you get to see that person again. It's knowing that it's more than just a physical attraction, but something so much deeper. It's when you don't even notice other people in "that" way cause you're so focused on that person. It's accepting them "as is", faults and all. It's when they have little quirks that make you smile and its when you just can't get enough of them.

Love is knowing that you can't explain how you feel in words so you spend every minute just trying to express it with actions. It's more than making out or sex, it's those moments just holding each other and knowing that that's enough. It's the little inside jokes and secrets that always make you smile. It's wanting to do something special when they're down. It's wanting all of your friends to know them cause you're so happy to be with them. It's when you're proud of them and support them in everything they do cause you believe in them without a doubt. It's something you can't express in words but in actions. It's knowing that you're truly HAPPY cause you mean the world to someone and they mean the world to you.

Answer 2

Love is Accepting.
Acceptance is labeling someone as "okay" and having no particular desire to change them. Who they are is perfectly fine with you. You pose no condition on whether you will love them or not. This is call unconditional love. When your love IS conditional, the moment they step outside your set of conditions, love evaporates.

Love is Appreciating.
Appreciation is one step beyond acceptance. Its when your focus is on what you like about another. We look at them and feel this sweeping appreciation for who they are, their joy, their insights, their humor, their companionship, etc. When someone says they are "in love" with another, they mean their appreciation is so enormous for this person that it consumes their every thought.

Love is Wanting Another to Feel Good.
We want those we love to be happy, safe, healthy, and fulfilled. We want them to feel good in all ways, physically, mentally and emotionally

Answer 4

Love is a basic dimension of human experience that is variously conveyed as a sense of tender affection, an intense attraction, the foundation of intimacy and good interpersonal chemistry, willing self-sacrifice on behalf of another, and as an ineffable sense of affinity or connection to nature, other living beings, or even that which is unseen. It manifests itself in feelings, emotion, behavior, thoughts, perception and attitude. It influences, underlies and defines major patterns in interpersonal relationships and self-identification.
People, throughout history, have often considered phenomena such as “love at first sight” or “instant friendships” to be the result of an uncontrollable force of attraction or affinity.[2] One of the first to theorize in this direction was the Greek philosopher Empedocles who in the fourth century BC argued for existence of two forces: love (philia) and strife (neikos), which were used to account for the causes of motion in the universe. These two forces were said to intermingle with the four elements, i.e. earth, water, air, and fire, in such a manner that love, so to say, served as the binding power linking the various parts of existence harmoniously together.
Later, Plato interpreted Empedocles’ two agents as attraction and repulsion, stating that their operation is conceived in an alternate sequence.[3] From these arguments, Plato originated the concept of “likes attract”, e.g. earth is thus attracted towards earth, water toward water, and fire toward fire. In modern terms this is often phrased in terms of “birds of a feather flock together”. Later, following developments in electrical theories, such as Coulomb's law, which showed that positive and negative charges attract, analogs in human life were developed such as "opposites attract." Over the last century, researcher on the nature of human mating, such as in evolutionary psychology, agree that pairs unite or attract to each other owing to a combination of opposites attract, e.g. people with dissimilar immune systems tend to attract, and likes attract, such similarities of personality, character, views, etc.[4] In recent years, various human bonding theories have been developed described in terms of attachments, ties, bonds, and or affinities.

Love is a feeling you get inside of you when you see someone that you like and that person likes you back.
