What is love?

[deonte9109]

Baby don't hurt me don't hurt no more what is love?

All right onto the topic. My recent fiancée and I was having a conversation she had with a family friend about our recent engagement. They claimed that we was too young to be thinking about marriage and that our love was just puppy love. They said that true comes with age and that I should have proposed when I bought a proper ring and asked her dad for his blessing etc. Pretty much the old fashioned stereotypical way. Personally I feel that when you get older that love can become harder to find and truly have. When you get older, there are more factors in how a relationship turns out like money and jobs. If you find that someone before all the money and possibly before the fame then that means that your loved one would still be with you because they was there before you had money. My fiancée and I are both 19 and we are not planing on getting married until after we finish college which puts the marriage at least 4 years away. This topic has probably been done before but I'm on a iPod and nowhere near a pc so I can't check properly. So what is love to you escapists? Can true be found before you have a career or is it something you find with age?

OH GOD DEEP SUBJECT!

You can find it whenever. It might be easier when you have no money and fame because then you know the other person loves you for you and not for your money and fame. Since you are pushing the marriage back 4 years that should give you plenty of time to evaluate your relationship. Just don't start living together, studies show that contributes to a failed marriage (because you learn how to live with the other person instead of as a union, which sounds weird, but it actually makes sense if you think about it).

And that is an awesome song.

Love is playing Borderlands with a girl... then having sex with her.

Nah, I'm just kidding. Me and my fiancee have been together for 7 years (since we were 15 years old). It isn't hard, we've never had to make massive personal sacrifices to be together. I'd be lying if I said that love is something you have to fight for, because for us it's easy. It's really easy...

Love is an emotional and possible (but not necessary) attraction to someone.

But obviously, that doesn't do it justice. Love is, in a rather cliched way, nigh impossible to properly explain. If it can be explained properly I'm not the man to do it.

Generally it's very hard to tell if it's just a crush or whatever without hindsight. I would definitely, definitely take everything that other people say about your relationships with a mountain of salt. The chances are they know far less about it than they think.

Love is not something you fall into. Love is a CONSCIOUS CHOICE. There is the initial stage of 'infatuation' that you have with your new partner, which can last any length of time. The point at which it begins to wear off is the time most people cut and run or feel things weren't as awesome as they once were. This is untrue. (Unless there's been some significant reason which would push you towards a break-up) The initial infatuation has worn off. That's all. The point that it wears off is the point that you decide either, "right, I'm going to love this person", or "let's call it a day". The inexperienced dater, or the 'player', goes for choice two. Love is where you put your partner's needs before your own. Love is a conscious CHOICE.

Something that can't be said in words, I think you can only feel it. Though I think I may be wrong.

I died laughing at this.

OT: It's one of those emergent properties that can't scientifically be defined now, but probably can be in the future.

One of my friends' auntie and uncle met when they were 14 and became a couple (not the right status for that age i know) they are now married and have 2 children and they have always been happy. So i don't think it matters what age you are, you can always find love.

I've said i love people before but just because it didn't work out doesn't mean it was all a lie it just meant it was a different kind of love to what i feel now for my current boyfriend, he is my world and i would do anything for him and i know that is what love is all about.

Love is love is love. No one person can tell you what it is. When you're in love, you just know.

love is a sense of absolute you euphoria you get from just being with another person i guess thats how i'd put.

Power, then money then success = suddenly finding out that people want to love you

I think you're asking for this but

I think you'll find... she's really easy

[/hate myself]

OT: Not sure, there are different types though

The song explains it the way I would.

Love is love is love. No one person can tell you what it is. When you're in love, you just know.

"Being the One is just like being in love. Nobody can tell you you're in love, you just know it, through and through. Balls to bone." -The Oracle

That about covers it.

BABY DON'T HURT ME

Love is a chemical reaction in your brain triggered when you are 'in love' with someone else.

If you're lucky, he or she will have the same reaction, which will intensify both reactions. Hurray for motherfucking chemicals!

There's a bit more to it than that - circumstances, wether you actually like each other, etc, but this is the gist of it.
