To me, it is loving others unconditionaly when there is nothing in it for you. You just simply feel for a person, no matter what they do. :]

I think selfless love is about putting the other persons wants and needs before your own.

Selfless love is loving someone unconditionally. Sacrfice, seeing the one u love happy (with or without possessing him)
Giving up your happiness, even if it means loosing yours. Letting him go, when you really have to. It seems so noble. I wonder if there are people out there, who would do this much for the one they love.
I've understood what it's like to fall in love, You see all the person's imperfections as perfections. You accept him for who he really is. You wouldn't change anything about him :) Your happiness lies in his.
Amazing, what love can do :)

Buddhism encourage selfless love. It's the love for all living things.

Its when you need someone because you love them. Its unconditional. You are not expecting anything in return.
Selfish love is when you love somebody because you need them (ie to pay your bills, give you compliments, so you wont feel lonley, etc etc)

Loving someone so much that you are happy because they are happy even though they may only be happy without you.
Example: Freewilly

When you love someone and desire only to see them happy. Like if you love your wife, and she wants to sleep with her friend, but not you. And you accept that.
