no,love is the most beautiful thing that a person can experience in life but one thing you have to bear in mind is to know whom you want to make your lover.

Love is a chemical reaction.  Not a figment of your imagination.

Love is not selfish, nor does it take offense. Love is kind, love is not foolish, so if you don't know what it's like you're a fool!

What won't we humans do for love?  Think about this, love can be transitory sometimes and when we find love we want to hold onto it with both hands and never let go...because what if it went away?  \n\nI'm sure most of us have known "love" in one form or another and I think I'm correct in assuming that a lot of us have had that love taken away.  Whether a relationship ends, we loose a friend, family member or even a pet.  Sometimes love  just goes away.  So when we find it we don't want to loose it and because these feelings are so strong within us it can bring out the best and worst in our behavior.\n\nSo love in any shape or form is a glorious thing but without it in our lives it's truly a great tragedy.

The only love that is unconditonal is from an animal, child, or parent. All the rest have conditions.

Hmm.. I think it takes alot of maturity to realize when something is  "love" or  infatuation. I can see  by some of these responses" it happens daily" (thundergirll) that you have not matured as much as you need to. Let me clarify, age has alot to do with this, but even older people can be misled with love. You have to think about what makes you think you "love" this person. Is it the way he smells, walks, talks,breathes? Hmm , sounds like infatuation. There are no quizzes or anything to take to find out if you " love" someone. Love to me has alot to do with sacrificing. Are you willing to sacrifice things for the one you love? Do you really care about this person, and will be there for them no matter what? Do you really appreciate them for who they are and what they stand for? Love has alot more to do with the interior of a person. Think about these things,and see if you feel this way.You need to get to know the person, their likes, dislikes, their secrets, be each others friend. That always works!

it seems at this day and age kids throw that word around very loosely and they don't even know what love is. most confuse lust with love.... but they really have no clue.\n\nin their defense it took me a while to experience and learn what love is... im 31 now and still have alot to learn. it's a natural learning process..... i wish we could have known what older folks knew back when we were really young... :P

*sigh*\n\nOk call me a fuddy duddy. But I guess I just don't feel that love should be celebrated on this one day because we are supposed to. Love should be shown every day. I sooooooooo prefer someone doing something for me spontaneously on some odd day just cause they so want to, instead of because they feel obligated to. Soooo, I plan on ignoring the day........and surprising someone I truly care about when he least expects it. It's just so much more meaningful that way! *sorry for being a little poopy head when it comes to Valentine's day**

There is real love. I have been attached to or dependent on  people that I didn't necessarily love. I have called these experiences love out of desperation, but I have also felt true love for others. I just haven't often had it returned. I've had people swear that they did love me, but it was more need than anything--you can tell who does and does not love you by refusing to be a door mat. The ones who remain love you.

We DO know what you're feeling because we've all been 13 before......but-\nI think it can feel like love.. Why not? You're right, whose to say if it is or isn't?\nI think adults get too caught up in the whole '13 is too young to even be thinking about love' idea that we seem to forget that it really can happen, despite the age....

Love, I don't believe can be enjoyable, your talking about something that's physical. Sex.\n   Love is something of the heart, it's a feeling, an emotion. It's feeling all giddy inside when the one you love, hold your hand, kisses you in church as a profession of faith and love. Love is not blind but, all seeing, in the heart, the mind, overall love is universal.

Absolutely correct.\nMoral of d story: Love is not only blind but also weak in Maths.

Good question, 'love' is such an umbrella term for the whole gamut of human attraction feelings. I guess the only way you know you love someone is if you put them first before yourself all the time. Personally I think this is a crazy idea, which is why I won't fall in love, nor will I lie to someone either. I think people need to be more honest and not say things that their partner wants them to say but they don't feel. Love is what you make of it, everyone has their own set of rules for it. To ask others what it is, is like saying what is the definition of chocolate flavoured ice cream? You can bet it tastes different every place you have it. Chocolate is a good substitute for love anyway, so eat that!

Love is what you make of it.  The definition you've given about having a higher concern for another without regards to oneself, to me that is love.  Actually there's more to it than that, but then again not everything can be expressed verbally now can it?
