What Is LOVE?

Asked by ShortStuff (65points) March 14th, 2009

I’m confused. My friends tell me that Love is when you really like someone. But I thought if I really liked someone I just like them. So like is Love when you like someone alot???

love is when you want to be with someone, and you accept them for all that they are, including their faults.
@Foolaholic dammit! You beat me!

Foolaholic beat me to it. :)
Are you asking about loving someone or being in love with someone? Those are two quite different emotions.

Dammit! I was coming to say that too. Now I’m gonna have to work on having something useful to say. :(

Love is when you like someone beyond your ability to adequately express it in any way. When, like es says, you accept them for who they are—faults and all. And you never want to let them go because life would be less without them.

Love is a Beatles-themed Cirque du Soleil show at the Mirage.

According to assorted songs love is a battlefield, love is nothing but a second hand emotion, love stinks, and love is a rose. And according to the movie The Way We Were love is never having to say you’re sorry… wait was that from Love Story?

Me? I think that love is knowing everything about someone, caring deeply for them anyway, and never exploiting their vulnerabilities. When you find your true love you will be able to tell by the smell. When you are totally intoxicated by the smell of the one you are with and you can’t get enough of that smell, then it is true love.

Whenever I’m alone with you,
You make me feel like I am home again.
Whenever I’m alone with you,
You make me feel like I am whole again.
Whenever I’m alone with you
You make me feel like I am young again
Whenever I’m alone with you
You make me feel like I am fun again, again
However far away, I will always love you
However long I stay, I will always love you
Whatever words I say, I will always love you
I will always love you
Whenever I’m alone with you
You make me feel like I am free again
Whenever I’m alone with you
You make me feel like I am clean again, again
However far away, I will always love you
However long I stay, I will always love you
Whatever words I say, I will always love you
I will always love you
