1 Corinthians 13:7 “Love bears all things.”
A physical feeling (for me a strange twinge in my heart and hands) and emotional connection towards somone. Love is patient and often blind. Love is beautiful but also the most painful like a thorny rose.
Something you hate, but for some reason just can’t get enough of it.
lol
The ability to put someone elses needs before your own.
Love is not blind, it is conditional and given away for real reasons. It is the scariest thing you will ever experience, should you choose to truly let go and give in. On the same hand, it is the best thing that will ever happen to you, should you find a match.
Falling into it, love is generally very confusing. Completely into it, you feel like an idiot for ever being confused.
Love is like a giant burrito that you eat when you are wearing white. You bite into one end and the other end spills out all over your clothes but you don’t care because it is sooooo good.
There’s no greater love than friend giving his own life for his friends.
Thank You Jesus.

I don’t think love can be explained. You have to experience it. If a person hasn’t experinced hot burrito, unconditional, feel goofey always on your mind LOVE LOVE LOVE, you wouldn’t be able to understand it.
I guess it’s like when I’m riding my Triumph on a warm day, wind in face etc etc and someone says I don’t get it, why is that fun. Don’t attempt to tell them, they won’t understand.
Love is an emotion created by chemicals. It seems to encourage people to pair up and procreate. It often keeps the man around long enough to help bring up the kiddos. Perhaps half the time, it keeps the couple paired for an entire lifetime.
Love changes over the course of life. The initial impetus to mate soon fades, and must be replaced with affection and respect and enjoyment of the other person, or the relationship will not stay together.
To the person experiencing love, none of what I said above applies. Love is an overwhelming emotion; undescribable and wonderful. It takes you over, and makes it so you can not think of anything but caring for the person you love. This is true for children as it is for mates.
Love is usually reciprocal to a greater or lesser extent. Sometimes one person loves the other more than they are loved. This causes problems. When it is equally reciprocal, the relationship has the best chance.
People in love have a complicated set of expectations of each other. They expect to be made happy by their lover. They often believe that it is only about giving to their partner, but usually, if they don’t get enough back, the bloom of love fades.
Love is tricky. Love is tough. Love can make you the strongest person in the world. It can also make you the weakest. Love is wonderful. Love can destroy your life.
Love is a complicated thing.
Love is caring intensely for the health and well being of someone for no particular reason and for no gain of your own. Love is an invisible force that attracts you physically and emotionally to another person and refuses to be ignored. Love is willing to do anything for another person at the drop of a hat. Love is an emotion, sometimes fleeting, sometimes unmovable, that fulfills every desire you have, for the time that it lasts. Love is that feeling that lets you know that you will make it through the good and the bad with this person simply because you have love. It’s a cliche, but you wouldn’t trade it for the world.
Love is: The touch of a hand that calms you. A kiss on the neck that thrills you. A careless word that breaks your heart. A thoughtful word that mends it. An arm around you that keeps you warm. Fear that leaves you cold. Love is looking across the room at your husband doing nothing special, and being overcome with gratitude for the simple fact of his existence in your life.
imho
When she’s the last thing you think about before falling asleep and the first thing when you wake up
when you’d do anything to make her happy, and just want to see her smile
when you want to give her the world
when you don’t want to take your eyes off of her and want to spend eternity w/her
buuuut then again, I’ve never been loved by someone so I could just be some weird stalker dude…
love is purity
love is innocence
(but I guess purity and innocence is something you find less and less in this world)
THANKS MAN KIND!
:*(
I think that love has a different defitinion for everyone. What you go through and experience creates that definition for you.
love is when you take away the passion and the romance and find out the feelings you have for him are still there…
Love is an exploding cigar we willingly smoke.

Wholehearted, unconditional acceptance and understanding.
