It is true, we all dream of a perfect love but always settle for less......but at the end we are always happy. That is what love is. Love is something wonderful that you share with a person that you really care about and want to spent the rest of your life with. Love is not perfect, but in the relationship, you should do EVERYTHING possible to make it perfect, and for that, that means making your significant other as happy as possible. There is no such thing as the "Ideal" person or relationship, but the couple can create it. To be able to do that you have to take care of your love. Instead of letting it die over the years you are making it grow. Making your love stronger. Loving eachother more, each and everyday. Wondering what will happen if your love isn't there next to you. Wondering if you will ever survive without them. If you are ever wondering, you are in LOVE. Love is something beautiful that is really hard to find. But once you have found it, cherish it and appreciate being able to have it. Who knows if you will ever be able to receive & love again.-Laura

love is trust. Love is when you know this person has faults and they just don't matter. Love is complete security. Love is being able to absolutely totally be yourself with no apology. Love is knowing you'll never change the other person, and why would you want to? You accept them for exactly who they are.
Never lower your expectations of love.

According to Robert Sternberg's research, "Love" is an emotion consisting of three components: intimacy, passion & committment.
Intimacy, the feeling close and connected to someone (developed through sharing and very good communications over time). Intimacy is what makes you want to share and offer emotional and material support to each other.
-Intimacy alone is Liking (true friendship without passion or long-term commitment)
Passion, the feeling physically aroused and attracted to someone. Passion is what makes you feel "in love" and is the feeling most associated with love. It also rises quickly and strongly influences and biases your judgment.
-Passion alone is Infatuation (passionate, obsessive love at first sight without intimacy or commitment)
Commitment, pledging to your self and each other to strengthen the feelings of love and to actively maintain the relationship. Commitment is what makes you want to be serious, have a serious relationship and promise to be there for the other person if things get tough.
-Commitment alone is Empty Love (decision to love another without intimacy or passion)
Romantic Love: Intimacy & Passion, no Commitment
-Lovers physically and emotionally attracted to each other but without commitment
-“As in a summer romance”
Companionate Love: Intimacy & Commitment, but no Passion
-Long-term committed friendships or a marriage in which the passion has faded
-I love you but I’m not IN love with you
Fatuous Love: Passion & Commitment, but no Intimacy
-Commitment based on passion with without time for intimacy to develop
-Shallow relationship such as a whirlwind courtship
Consummate Love: A complete love consisting of all three components

Love is selfish and when they say they need time apart to work out problems but they still love you, they really dont love you cause if they did they would stay with and work out the problems with you.

love is when you care about the other person so much and dont want anything bad to happen or hurt them. you want the best for them and you want to make them happy. genuine care and concern for one another.

I just don't know anymore. Never did. Love is not getting bored with someone.

Love is a temporary feeling I get when I'm ejaculating in her mouth.
