there are many types of love. assuming that you are talking about romantic-type love, this is how I would define unconditional love:
"Is it love you're feeling or just an infatuation?" by Ann Landers
"Infatuation is instant desire - one set of glands calling to another. Love is friendship that has caught fire. It takes root and grows, one day at a time. Infatuation is marked by a feeling of insecurity. You are excited and eager but not genuinely happy. There are nagging doubts, unanswered questions, little bits and pieces about your beloved that you would just as soon not examine to closely. It might spoil the dream. Love is the quiet understanding and mature acceptance of imperfection. It is real. It gives you strength and grows beyond you - to bolster your beloved. You are warmed by his presence, even when he is away. Miles do not separate you. You have so many wonderful little films in your head that you keep replaying. But near or far, you know he is yours and you can wait. Infatuation says, "We must get married right away. I can't risk losing him." Love says, "Be patient. Don't panic. Plan your future with confidence." Infatuation has an element of sexual excitement. Whenever you are together you hope it will end in intimacy. Love is not based on sex. It is the maturation of friendship that makes sex so much sweeter. You must be friends before you can be lovers. Infatuation lacks confidence. When he's away, you wonder if he is cheating. Sometimes you check. Love means trust. You are calm, secure and unthreatened. He feels your trust, and it makes him even more trustworthy. Infatuation might lead you to do things you will regret, but love never steers you in the wrong direction. Love is elevating. It lifts you up. It makes you look up. It makes you think up. It makes you a better person than you were before."

You can't define it. Especially in the English language! Love is NOT Sex. Love is different for everyone, so kinda like music...you've gotta find your own groove. Most people spend an entire lifetime searching for it...so asking strangers on a website is kinda like cheating! Start your own search baby - you'll get there!!!

Love isn't defined by sex
"Love's such and old fashioned word and love dares you to care for the people on the edge of the light and love dares you to change our way of caring about ourselves" David Bowie - Under Pressure

first off love is not defined by sex
Love is Unconditional
Love is Forgiving
We love because it is the only true adventure
Love is friendship set on fire
Love is the master key that opens the gates of happiness

Love is a rare feeling that is only felt on two sides. Othrewise it is infatuation, lust or call it as you wish. true love is deep seated in one's heart. Shakespeare said that love is blind and lovers cannot see. But in reality love is not blind, but lovers are. Sex is just a by product of love. Just think.........

have u ever fall in love even if u know that he/she isn't yours and knowing that u both cant be together yet u still love her ?
have u ever do something for ur loved one even if they can feel it but they still leave u, but u still think that it is worth ?
have u ever felt the power of love, smile when u're hurt, cry when u're happy,sad when u're together ?
i was sad when i'm with him because i'm afraid that i will lose him one day. i would still love him even if i know that i cant hold him in my arms anymore. i guess as long as u've done ur best for them, and never do it in return, i think tat is love...
love is complicated yet simple..

love is what you feel inside .lt's not a matter of having sex.you can get sex without love for sure.love is what you are ,your personality and your own feelings.nobody can change it.

lets put it this way...
love is like a piece of puzzle, you will never be completed unless you will find the missing part...
it may include physical involvement but it doesnt revolve with that...
love is a unique feeling shared by two individuals...
you will never know how it works or wut it does unless you fell in love ^.~
