Simple and easy....post your definition of love.

Any type of love:
*Romantic
*Familiar
*Things
etc

Just has to be love.

You can make it up or steal it from a quote......GO!

(I'll start ;) )

I think love is always trying to improve the other persona and yourself. While at the same time, accepting them for all their faults.

Acceptance. That's all, just acceptance.

Acceptance makes me feel loved.

I think Romantic love is about caring for someone really strongly & wanting what's best for them even if it's not with you

Hmmm...lemme think of a cliche...how about;

love is giving someone the ability to hurt you, but trusting them not to.

A stronger alternative to the word "like"

Having such an intense fondness for someone that your heart beats a little bit faster when you think about them, you feel happy when you're around them and you care about them so much that you worry about their well-being, and you get angry whenever someone says bad things about them.

I agree with that, except that I think that it isn't exclusive to romantic love. I.e. friendship can be that way, sometimes.

Compatibility. Acceptance. Trust. Comfort.

Acceptance and the familiar. I love the things that I'm familiar with and I wish to be accepted as a Kinks Fan Mod, because that's who I am. :)

Love is when your inspiration for going through the day is just because of that one person. Love is a special connection you know is there. Love is a bond, if flawed, that makes one want to improve themself even though the other accepts who they are with love.

Love is wanting to hold on, because love is both selfless and selfish.


Disclaimer: I've no idea what I'm on about, because what I've said doesn't feel quite right. So let me just say this: Love is hard to describe.

Love: Giving the highest good to another person.

Love is a gift.

I think that love is when you care about someone a lot and are very loyal to them. You also feel very connected to them and want to help them whenever they need help.

Love is the ever lasting bond shared between a morbidly obese person and a cheeseburger. :heart:
