In Psychology, love is a predisposition to someone or thing not a feeling because you love your mother in a different manner from your girlfriend.
Biologically, love is a feeling that bond individuals. Like another animals, humans are social and need this bonds to maintain together one another. Principally, when a mate is found and when females have babies.
This behavior allows the human reproduction, maintaining the male and female together to raise their sons. In my animal behavior book there is an example of a kind of mammal that is solitary (not social) and when the researchers injected oxitocine to them they form bonds and stay together with their mates. The oxitocine is a hormone that causes a female can lactate the babies, causes the contractions when they give birth and is associated in the feeling of love.

Love is difficult to define. How do you avoid confusing it with infatuation or lust? Philosophers and psychologists both have attempted to define love, per least its difference from infatuation and lust. If you are looking to find love, the following observations may be helpful.
Love is much more than a risk, but is a risk that one can take and grasp and fall into a dark abyss or dig oneself a hole and only crawl back when you overcome your emotions.
How can one truly define what love is? Not even an experienced person can truly grasp or explain love to its truest and deepest meaning. Its concepts are just a never ending story of an open book of experiences. But love does lie in one's heart, where memories are but shadows lingering in your soul.

Quote the great Agent Smith (Matrix)- Why Mr. Anderson? Why get up? Why keep fighting? What do you fight for? Peace? Or is it love? Love is just a word, Mr. Anderson. A word to describe an emotion created by a feeble species trying to justify their pathetic existence in the universe. Only humans could create a pointless emotion like love." Give or take a few words.

It is very difficult to explain, because many people think they love someone and it is actually lust. I am in love and i think it means that even when the person does wrong you still actually love them (you might be angry) and you love them unconditionally (meaning that even if they became paralyzed / lost an arm you would still find hem attractive and feel the same about them). I don't know how to explain to someone else what love is, but i think you Will know when you are there.
Mwah, have a great day!

Love cant be described with words, love is the reason we live, the best feeling in the world, it makes you want to become a better person for the one you love, love makes you complete! Love is wanting whats best for your loved one, even if it means that you wont be in the picture, but its okay because you love them!!! Love is when you would do anything anything for the one you love!! Even your life!!!! Love makes your heart beat faster and slower at the same time, love is magic!!!

i think love is looking in that person's eyes and looking into their soul and know every corner everything in there and loving every cenimeter of it, love is something higher than mountians, the world, the universe, above feelings, above lust, and anything we can comprehend. love is something no one will ever understand it is above human knowledge. the only way we kno that is is there is because it is something that happens wen two people's hearts are joined and their connection is so strong that nothing in the world could ever compare could ever comprehend or create. it is something made w/o doubt w/o hesititation. it is something that god or people can't ever break or even try to. it is something that wont let go, or go away, and even wen these two hearts meet it takes the biggest risk of all to love and that is to trust w/o doubt to never look bac to give their heart to another and no one else.

LOVE. its a small word with a big meaning? :S LOL.
love is undconditional.
love is when someone you admire is constantly on your mind.
its that warm feeling you get when he/she's near you.
its that person you think of first thing in the morning
LOVE HURTS TOOO YANNO! LOL.
it can cut you deep, but its the only thing that can bring you back together (:
and love is not just someone you can live with for the rest of your life, its about someone you cant live without.
or opposite of hate :)

there really isn't a way of knowing if your in love.love is just something that comes when you least expect it.its a strong feeling that can go against any thing no matter what.you'll know when your in love just by the way you feel about that special someone.you'll have a feeling that makes you think that there's something special/different about her.hope this helps!
