Welcome to Gaia! ::

Love is a very large belief system. I label it as a belief system due to the very fact that not one person can pinpoint the exact definition of love. Many people are different, and so would be their views and how they feel/show this love.

To me, love is a strong bond that can cause a person to overcome many obstacles. That person is on your mind at all times, you care for him and he cares for you. You wish to envelope that person with all that you are, and all you can give him, because you are his only and you want him to know you so that he may be able to love you fully, give you the acception that you need in life, the freedom to be yourself, and also to protect you from harm and your own demons as well.
You also want to explore him, know each and every bit of him, what he is, how he thinks, what he believes, how he feels and how each emotion is felt within him. You feel so strongly for this other person that life it'self could not possibly go on without him, and all life is lost within you because he is a secret part of you, a half that makes a whole and without him there is no will power to go on anymore.

Also, i read somewhere about seperate sub-categories of love. Where one person can be polygamous and still love each person seperatly and passionatly. Or where a couple could be apart for so long and love each other, and the same when a relationship is based on sex.

Discuss:
Your version of love
How love interacts with sexual desires
How you feel/interact with love

Definatly, that happens to people all the time. They aren't looking for it and they bump right into it. <3.

Going from Friendship into Relationship is really a hard thing to do...You've got to figure out weather or not you just like hanging out with each other a lot more than your other friends, or if you reeeeally want to be with her.

God damn it. Every time I attempt to post in a thread like this, the words "Roy Orbison" flash across my brain, and I lose my place in subspace thought.

However, love I can do. Love is biologically a chemical reaction in the brain.

Emotionally, it is what it is, and you react to it based on who you are.

There are many kinds of love. I love my parents and my sister and brother. I love my students. I love my cats. I love my fiance. I love God. I love them all, but in different ways.

The love I feel for them expresses itself in different ways. I want my fiance to do things to express love that I would be horrified if my parents, siblings or students tried to do. I interact with all of them in different ways. Bottom line there are many emotions that are called love and each of them causes someone to react in different ways.
