"Two people slightly deluded in each other's favour" is the best one I've heard :P

Love is the state of putting someone (or something) before yourself.

Asp-Z, that's a good one!

I have a very hard time defining it. The closest I have is wanting the other person to be truly happy - meaning giving up selfishness, even at the most subtle level.

Being "twitter-patted with each other" is one that amuses me. :)

There's infatuation or a blind determination or desire for someone.

Then there's the intrinsic desire to make them happy, which may mean you just have to leave if they don't want you.

Love = unhealthy pathological attachment to another person that functions as a destroyer of logical thinking. Harmful side effects include but are not limited to: doing stupid things, whining about your emotions, and marriage.

Love = emotionally dependable parasites living in symbiosis

LMFAO

I was going to say something but I forgot it when I saw this, but I remembered it after like 10 minutes

Love = Tolerate.

I'll probably post again with song lyrics later.

Pretty much!

Maybe an attraction and caring toward somebody that is so strong that you place their importance above your own?

I know what love feels like, I'm just not sure it can ever be put into words.
