[cystemic]

- Let me play you a song on the world's smallest violin *plays solemn violin song*
- MR KRABS, THIS IS SERIOUS!
- I know, this really is the world's smallest violin *zooms in on microscopic violin*

Love is a chemical, no matter the origin. We give it meaning by choice.

Love is anything and anyone that enjoys you and the reverse.

What is love?
oxytocin and vasopressin, mostly.

giving us that warm and fuzzy feeling when we're near the ones we love.

Does knowing what makes you tingle rob deprive it of it's beauty and wondrousness? No.
Does knowing that love is a chemical make the feeling any less special? No.

Love is a strong emotion, much like hate. Like how I hate people who try to act edgy and pretend that love is fake and everything in the world is bleak and the world is doomed to misery, oh no wait, thats just you.

Please for the people around you, yes love is real, how do you think you were made?...

Well on second thought, a bathroom stall isn't what I call love...

How do you answer a concept about a philosophical ideal?

I don't know. But thanks to Cracked I do know about break-ups.

Have fun being depressed. And potentially caught in an internet loop.

damn nija'd i just re-read that cracked article like 20 minutes ago and was going to link it. I think it does, its the natural impulse of someone wanting to care (maternal), lust (sexual) personality compatibility (friendship and sexual)

love with another individual is a wonderful thing to be valued and appreciated - it does not come around very often.
love rejected is very painful and will cause you to do crazy things when you have run out of options and run out of ways of trying to communicate and trying to meet expectations. like you may post ridiculous things on forums because they are things you never had a chance to say and the person to whom you gave your love would not give you a forum in real life. love gone wrong needs a clean break! Love is pain sometimes - but can be the complete opposite if it is right.

It is that tingley feeling you get at the tip of your penis after sex.

Oh Yeah!

 

[Kaltazraza]

It does to you the same as fire, though without the incineration.

love is the knowledge that you would be willing to risk almost everything for one person just to see them smile, in other words, love is rarer than any gem on this planet.

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

Scientifically, the love you mean, affection, is the release of chemicals caused by the brain reacting to pheromones. It causes many stimulations in the body.

This is just too cold though. Love is where you feel happy with the person you're with. You can depend on them and trust them to stay with you forever. You see past each others flaws and love each other for them. You often have flaws that the other corrects and make 'one'.

Follow whichever you want, I follow my dick though; much more reliable.

You bet love exists! It exists as the *romantic* chemical reactions caused by hormonal release as you finally meet that *special* person who exhibits all of the external signs of health and genetic condition that *your* DNA happens to correspond to.

 

[TailstheHedgehog]

I've never actually been in love, but I'm assuming it's when you trust somebody totally and completely, and know that they trust you back. No doubt exists when you a truly in love..
But that's just what I get from the media =)
But love is NOT when somebody smells so good you drool over them. How thick do you think we are? Ugh, I hate these new-gen vamps... (wow that went off topic...)
