I believe it is clearly defined by the quote of Victor Hugo, which is mentioned above.

Romantic love is a form of love that is often regarded as different from mere needs driven by sexual desire, or lust. Romantic love generally involves a mix of emotional and sexual desire, as opposed to Platonic love. There is often, initially, more emphasis on the emotions than on physical pleasure.

Not at all for he is not speaking of a romantic love at all he is speaking of unconditional love. in spite of our short coming-For this could never be achieved by romantic love due to the fact that the role both plays in the romantic love is to all ways put your best self face on now what diminishes this is when different aspect of life is share beyond the "all is wonderful" aura and I tell you our true selves show and the romance quickly diminishes, acceptance must be then tested!

Based on my perspective, a romantic love is not just being romantic to each other. It depends on how both persons (either the man or the woman) can give and take to each other in order to achieve understanding.
A romantic love is basically full of temporary enjoyment. I definate love as the capability of loving someone by nature or the first-sight without external pressure from the surrounding / the capability of being spontaneous and honest to the spouse. A love shouldnt be like a puppy love. Love should be something that will not bring burden to our daily living. It is more likely to give something good to our life principle which will make us a better person, not to corrupt our mentality.
Love should be something that can make the life of both persons to the highest extend which they cannot reach before in the past.
Love should be something that will remind us to our religion and the importance of us living among the mankind.
Love is not just about bringing the happiness in life, it is all about making ourselves to be appreciated. We are happy because we are appreciated. That is why we love 'Love'.

"Romantic Love" You could have asked just about Love but u have added an adjective" Romantic" to it..!! Though philosophers have tried & attempted to define love many times but acording to me we do not do justice when we try to put emotions into words.Words generally describes thoughts not emotions & love is something which generates deep inside the soul & which cannot be limited into any kind of defination...!! But still, like other philosophers I would also like to make daring attempt to define love...!!
" Love is state when u get so attached & connected to the person or thing u love that Love & loved both start sharing the same feeling"
Love may not be pleasure giving every time and incase if it gives satisfaction & inner happiness then its "Romantic Love"

A long time ago I thought that love was something that you reserved for some special set of people that you had judged worthy of it.
After a while I got to thinking about what Jesus had said about turning the other cheek and loving our neighbor I put the two together and realized that he had made no exceptions in these statements. It became obvious to me that he intended that we exclude no one from the love that we are supposed to be giving. I started thinking about my idea of love and suddenly realized that I had not been loving anyone at all. I had simply been judging everyone and every thing.
Judging someone worthy of love is not love, it is only judgment. I actually started to cry when I realized this. I saw just how much of my life I had wasted being judgmental, thinking of myself as a Christian, when I was actually doing just the opposite of what Jesus had asked us to do.
I thought about the verse judge not lest ye be judged, and I understood it for the first time.
I realized that I have a lot of catching up to do. So many opportunities were wasted. I now try to apply the love that I have for the world in a universal way like Jesus asks us to do.
If I start to feel afraid and think that I see someone that I should not love because of something I have thought or heard I try to catch my mistake as soon as possible. I tell myself that I have forgot the truth and have fallen for the same old trick that had cost me so many opportunities to be loving in the past. The horror of this realization is often all that is necessary to bring me back to my senses and make me drop the judgmental nonsense I was thinking.
I still have a lot to learn about love, but at least I’m making progress.
Love and blessings

falling in love is...a crock of **** -_- There's no such thing. It's a romantic myth. Advertised by Hollywood. The feeling of always wanting to be next to them, with them...that's INFATUATION. It fades with with time. It's an exciting, wonderful feeling that inspires you to do crazy things, like buy gifts, etc! But this isn't love. It's easy to do those things when you're infatuated. True Love is something you CHOOSE to do, and it never ends, unless you DECIDE to end it. When your infatuation with someone ends, you have 2 choices: You bail out, cuz you realize you don't actually love them, or you decide to stay with them, cuz you love them. It's EASY to say that you love someone, but talk is cheap. Love is what you DO! You support the person you love, you inspire them to do better things. You just try to make their days better. You do things you wouldn't ordinarily do to make them happier. On another note, there is one exception. Your mother. She is the one person you love automatically. Even if you hate your mother, never talk to her. You still love her. You can't help it, she's your mom.

Nature cares nothing about Humans definitions, their categorizing, conditions, or values.
Nature does not allow you to pick or chose!
Seldom does it work out when humans pick and chose!
But when Nature smacks you in the face, at time when your mind was filled with other concerns, in a place you might never chose, from among a people that your swore hatred to, You have no say/choice/what ever!
And it, for the most part, never dies!
