If you're watching romantic movies to base your definition of love on you're doing something wrong.

 

You can never experience the "love" seen in said movies because it does not exist, it's been romanticized into existinction. It is an un-love! 

 

Slight parody of the Dead Parrot sketch aside, love does not exist like it does in fiction, and any such descriptions of love from fiction is just plain silly.

 

Preemptively:

 Think it`s a hard question , it might be different for different people .

 

You think about them all the time , you would be lost with out them in your life and they feel the same about you . It has to be more than physical and more than sex but that the same time they are important .you have to be able to talk about every thing and in turn listen .   I do think some mistake love and lust .

So does the Merriam Webster dictionary.

 

Love - noun 

: a feeling of strong or constant affection for a person

: attraction that includes sexual desire : the strong affection felt by people who have a romantic relationship

: a person you love in a romantic way

Stop living by others' standards. Live your life by how you see fit. Life is not a fairytale of finding the right one and living happily ever after.

I'm just so scared I miss it or something.... I mean ... I don't know ... just seems like a horrifying prospect to die before having some one that would grieve for you : / at least ....

 

I mean some people say being in love is like...you cant even imagine breathing without the person u love ... it sounds crazy but so many people experience it

 

a person u cant wait to see or hear his voice or be around??! a person you would LITERARY throw yourself into a lava pit to save

Tarek, seriously, just give it a rest.

 

You cannot understand love simply by being given a definition. You have to experience it.

 

When you are dumped by someone, and you think about them everyday since the day you got together, all the way until 10 months afterwards (and still going), that's love. Once you experience that, then you'll know. But being told that by a nerd is not going to help you understand love.

 

Just because you're 31 doesn't mean you've gone a long time without it. Love isn't bound by age. There's still time. For example, my uncle promised my grandpa on his deathbed, to take care of my grandma. He spent almost 2 decades helping her, and going through a tough time in his working career. A year before she died, he, at age 52, found someone close to his age, and they're still together. But some people go through their whole lives, living till they're 90, never having been in a loving relationship.

 

So, my point is that maybe you should stop worrying, and stop annoying BSNers, and try and find love wherever you can. Give yourself some time. You're not going to gain anything from these weird threads of yours, so stop wasting your time.

 

If you're so desperate to find love, my suggestion is move to America. They're freaks, and you'll probably never find a military man there, but at least you won't get stuck between wars, and they're more accepting of homosexuals.

Yes.

To further elaborate, the word covers a wide range of feelings. C S Lewis wrote an excellent book on the subject as have many others.

Briefly, love can manifest as a sudden, intense passion. That rarely lasts too long. It can also grow slowly. The two can happen at the same time. People get married for a variety of reasons. At its core, marriage is about providing mutual security as well as a secure basis for begetting and raising children. Mutual affection is a desirable component to this, but historically hasn't been necessary.

And to echo what others have said, life is not this 'one size fits all' thing. Live your life as it suits you.

Large concepts; Love, Justice, Good, Evil, etc; tend to be difficult to define. And people often disagree about what they mean, to the point where I don't think having a discussion about them is particularly meaningful. It makes more sense to me to have discussions about much smaller concepts: How do you want to feel? How do you find others who make you feel that way, or enhance that set of feelings? Is finding others that make you feel that way even the best way to approach the challenge?

I don't see why anyone would care about whether that turns out to meet some definition of 'love' or not at the end of the day. If it does not fulfil the definition of love, then love was not what you really wanted.

Incredibly difficult, when single, most of your actions are most of the time, for yourself and what you say is also for yourself. When in a relationship, your actions and what you say and what you do will almost always have your partner first in mind, not yourself. Its good for me, it helps me not to think of myself but others, makes me less selfish, more patient (my gf pouts and sulks for almost no reason sometimes) and willing to make sacrifices. Important lessons in later life.

 

Then there is the fear, a fear those in relationships will always have in their mind every now and then. Its like a worm that burrows deep into your mind, the fear of being dumped for another person or being cheated on.

 

A lot of hard work..I saw a picture on the internet about a relationship, sums it up perfectly. Two people both hold each end of an elastic band, as the love increases, the band gets stretches bigger, if one lets go, the other is in for a nasty surprise and get really hurt.

 

Its not a single effort, but a co-operative one. Its easy to be single, but hard at the same time. I'm not really keen on this emotional dependance on my gf. I like it but also fear it.

wow sounds like the perfect analogy,

 

and I was not dumped guys... the thing kinda fizzled out : / which was ... weird and disappointing.... I mean their was not even a chance for love or even mutual "liking" to begin with

 

I mean we make these "lists" in out minds about the "perfect" some one

 

but it all hogwash ... you cant really make lists about another person's traits

Well to be honest, I never liked Thai women (had bad experiences with them), or Asians in that case. Strange as I'm half Asian/Thai myself.

 

While in Bangkok, came across this girl from Northern Thailand. If I was 16 again and a 21 year old of me appeared before me and told me I'd end up dating an Asian, I would of laughed in my own face and say "**** that".

 

I went in with no expectations, no check list of the perfect girl. Found out her personality itself was perfect. Despite the flaws (sulking, pouting, complaining and jealous incredibly easy).

yah I guess I just have to hit the "clubs" when i move to the capitals and just hope for the best :rolleyes:

 

the reason I love army guys is because they already have the neat, well dressed, hygienic, honorable, duty bound thing going for them

 

AND they can enjoy the small things in life cause here they are in constant danger
