(Love?) My boyfriend told me he loved me...?

Question

I don't know if I feel the same way. What is love? How do you know if you love someone? I'm seventeen. Is it too young for someone my age to fall in love?

Answer 1

Its not what society would tell you it is. Its actually a very, very primitive emotion, the bringer of all other emotions. So you've loved things to different intensities since you could feel. Because love is the emotion that lets you feel for things. So technically, you don't feel the same way, you feel what love is, your asking the right questions about HOW, but thats extremely complicated and deep and is based left to your own purpose in life to find out, and your never to young. But you can have too weak of a purpose in life. Its actually some pretty intense stuff, but as you began to feel more for an individual it begans to sort of storm inside of you to the point everything makes you feel for them. This is whats called "Falling in love" which is were people get confused. Its a product of the feeling love gives you, not the love per-say. But if you got more questions I've got an E-mail. But I think I confused you enough that maybe you'll give yourself so more time for self discovery which we ALL need. Love with out purpose is not perfect, so be careful, love on its own is never enough, it most be guided.....
