What is love ?


Yeah lets see what all you ppl think of love. It exists, doesnt exist, happens, never happens, only happens ones, can happen more then once, its just lust or whatever u think. And try to be honest.

*I am talking about bf/gf love. Please leave Parental and religious love out of it.* Thank you.

I don't believe in love, it is such a facade.

All emotions go up and down, do you still consider them unconditional if you struggle though the tough times and love again?

Sadz I hear yea. I know exactly what you'r trying to say.

There are very few ppl who can really love. And actual love is very rare to find among ppl. Most of ppl here claim to be truly in love with their significant other. But only they know if they are actually in love or just pretending to be in love, just because they cant face the truth. Which in my understanding is wrong.

Anyhow Love for everyone is what they make it to be. And for most of us it turns out to be a mistake. I dont know why.

Is there one sided love ? can anyone love another person without expecting the same in return? And if love is forever can one sided love be forever?

Apkanaseeb: I LOVED the notebook. id watch it everyday if i had the time.

actually what i meant when i said love can diminish is that love can calm down after a while..it's not going to stay the roller coaster of emotions and fun and novelty and excitement that it usually is in the beginning of a relationship. i guess "diminish" is the wrong word to use. i dont mean that it'll reduce, i meant more that the nature of it can change. but part of loving someone is recognizing that change and working with it, not running off the moment the novelty wears off.
To me, part of love is commitment and loyalty. Hence, staying committed is an important factor. It shouldn't be a compromise. It should be key. (i guess if it feels like a compromise, you're not really in love).

Ahmed: this is the song that was on my head when i added this JE ... hehehe

Sadz: I agree with you but in the end did u mean that love also diminishes with time like everything and becomes a compromise ? That if you made a choice then u have to live with it forever ?

Well that is not love then. Its just that u start off thinking its love but then later after few years you realize it was not really love. And can you love anyone by choice ? I dont think you can, but maybe some ppl think they can fall in and out of love by choice.

Did anyone see a movie called "The Notebook" ? If not then you should see it if you like good love stories. It is a beautiful movie.

As said by others, its many things. And many different things for different people. Even different for the same person each time as well. Yes, I do believe it can happen more than once. But also that, it never truly ends either. It just changes.

I would say its when you care about another person as much if not more than you care about yourself. And about their dreams. And they have the power to make you happy or sadder than anyone else. I don't know.

This immediately popped into my head though:

What is love
Baby don't hurt me
Don't hurt me
no more
Baby don't hurt me
Don't hurt me
no more
What is love

Aside from romantic love that's associated with a roller coaster of emotions, I think real love is making the conscious decision to devote yourself to someone, to be committed, loyal, and faithful to that individual. That decision comes with the realization that those "romantic" feelings might diminish somewhat over the years, that keeping the relationship healthy takes a lot of work, and that you may not even always want to keep it going...but you made the choice to love that person, so you do. Forever. :)

Nuriji: I agree with u.

Shorty: I understand what you are saying about love being dependent on individuality but this JE is about your personal opinion. So that we know how many differnet ppl have how many different definitions of love.

I think Love is something above all. Above friendship, attachment, companionship, and romance.

Do u believe in Heer Ranjha, Laila Majnu, and Romeo Juliet type of love? Love to die for?

I think the definition of love is different for each individual. To some love is all about romance, and great expectations being met as in fairy tales and the influence of desires through movie genre. For thers love is the strengh to take care of one another through good times, and bad. Through the hard struggles of life. For others it may be the joy of sharing every little useless event, or small events, or special events.

There is no one answer. In fact I think I personally have gone through all the above. Love definitions changes as you grow with the person. First it romantic, then, tough, then everything is about consideration for your other half.

I think it exists. It happens, and it can happen more then once.
