what is Love

lookin4romeo	Date: September 17, 2007 @ 10:50 PM So what is love Really?? is it the cliche if you really love me..... or he/she didnt love me enough, or well he/she loves someone else more then me. can someone please explain this to me? I have had a rough 25 years and It would take me to long to explain how or why it was so rough, but in all my years I dont know that I have ever really figured this out, I thought I was close at one time or another, but I was not. whether that was from a parent a sibling a spouse a lover or just a friend..... what is love really. Is it a feeling tied to an emotion or is an emotion tied to a word, or is it just simply a word that people Love to throw around. I guess Im just tired of the whole thing. maybe you could help. ~Ali

imemine	Date: September 18, 2007 @ 12:50 AM Love is a ham sandwich with a fair amount of CHEESE and some mustard. Yellow-----That french stuff with horseradish suck! Funny I like Wasabi----but that's with Sushi----which has nothing to do with the ham sandwich that w3 were talking about. Which brings me back to love! CHEESE!
ShadowMom	Date: September 18, 2007 @ 8:08 AM Love is not cheese unless you are a ... never mind!

Tattoomom	Date: September 18, 2007 @ 9:48 AM Love is an ACTION word...not a state of mind or emotion...
zedsalt	Date: September 18, 2007 @ 10:45 AM "I get my thing in action VERB!" Much discussion has been made over whether Love is merely the result of a brain-chemical-cocktail designed to ensure continuation of species or something so great that it defies description and comes close to being the description of God Himself (for want of a better dative singular pronoun). I tend toward the latter camp.
GTOriginal	Date: September 18, 2007 @ 1:00 PM Ommmmmmm... Suppose each of us saw a given color a different way. When I look at a leaf, I call it "Green". Now imagine if through your eyes, it appears to be what I would call "Red". Because you are calling that particular hue by the same adjective, we are inclined to smile and agree... _________________________________________________________ To put it another way, I love my dog. BUT I don't actually love my dog, because that would be wrong.

TameasDust	Date: September 18, 2007 @ 10:02 PM ok first things first making love is SEX .. you can have SEX with someone you don't love so making love is not LOVE it is just the gratification of ones lust at the moment. second If someone says "if you love me", "if you really loved me", "you don't love me enough" or any other form of emotional blackmail to get you to do something foreign to you ... They don't LOVE you ... They are CONTROLLING you ... you are a possession to them, to be discarded when something newer comes along. Dang I forgot what I was talking about
Woof	Date: September 18, 2007 @ 10:12 PM I guess I'd have to say this about love: It's irrational. It's the best part of us. It's something that we know instinctively, and something that I believe lives on, after our bodies die. Those are some of its' properties... but that really doesn't answer the question, does it? Love is that feeling that you have, when the only way that you can explain what you're feeling, is to say: "I love..." And trying to say more than that only seems to cheapen the feeling. No explanation is required, or can be had. That little word says it all.
GTOriginal	Date: September 19, 2007 @ 3:43 PM Yay! I LOVE this thread!!! I thought there was special stuff going on in my life, but now I know that I am really just being manipulated & controlled for SEX! Weehoo!!! Awesome!!
8111	Date: September 20, 2007 @ 8:23 PM It is not "taking", tho you may think you "love" taking from others. Adoration is not love, though you can adore the one(s) you love. Need is not love, though you may need the one(s) you love. you can also like the one(s) you love. Love IS an action word. It is giving of yourself to the benefit of others.
Distilled1	Date: September 20, 2007 @ 9:53 PM Love IS an action word. It is giving of yourself to the benefit of others. that sums it up.

ChillinBuzz	Date: September 21, 2007 @ 3:02 PM Love is real, real is love, Love is feeling, feeling love, Love is wanting to be loved. Love is touch, touch is love, Love is reaching, reaching love, Love is asking to be loved. Love is you, You and me, Love is knowing, We can be. Love is free, free is love, Love is living, living love, Love is needing to be loved. John Lennon
Svensta	Date: September 22, 2007 @ 9:18 AM Love is conscious, willing vulnerability. It is the discovery that someone else matters more than you do, to yourself. It is the goal that we should all strive for, but requiring another person, it will always be flawed and risky. Love is also a pretty hate machine.

zedsalt	Date: September 22, 2007 @ 10:31 AM Reminds me of that old joke- how is marriage like falling down a manhole? Either way you look, it's sewerside.
hantu	Date: September 23, 2007 @ 7:04 AM You may be asking the wrong people

TameasDust	Date: September 23, 2007 @ 8:27 AM Love is like a puppy ... pure, innocent and makes you happy... then messes on the carpet just before your mother comes over
AdNauseam	Date: September 23, 2007 @ 8:17 PM Definitions According to this, love is inspirational gift baskets. I never would have guessed.
zedsalt	Date: September 24, 2007 @ 10:43 AM The only thing a gift basket ever inspired me to do was to add a little more fruit to my diet. For about four days.
Tattoomom	Date: September 24, 2007 @ 11:39 AM Well, Zed...at least for those few days you didn't have to worry about Scurvy....
AdNauseam	Date: September 24, 2007 @ 4:08 PM How about "Love is chemicals"?
AdNauseam	Date: September 24, 2007 @ 4:08 PM I'm never going to trust Googlisms again.

GTOriginal	Date: October 1, 2007 @ 5:16 PM True Love requires lipstick remover and a wire brush.
TameasDust	Date: October 2, 2007 @ 3:51 PM Love is what everything else ain't.
zedsalt	Date: October 3, 2007 @ 11:40 AM Y'know the LOVE design with the first two letters on top of the last, and the O kinda tipped? I've met Robert Indiana, the guy who designed that. Cool, eh?
Snoogans775	Date: October 4, 2007 @ 7:07 PM makin love! makin' love! leave makin' love for late night Cinemax and people with wax stuck to the bas of their carpets, real good love involves plenty and plenty of F*CKIN!
lookin4romeo	Date: October 6, 2007 @ 8:32 PM ok, well I have been seeking this thing called love for a long time and have had nothing but I feel as if I am always I like the idea that snoogans has though, and I think that if you can find someone who does that the way you like it then the everything will be alright!!

Tattoomom	Date: October 7, 2007 @ 10:05 AM A sociopath is a person who does not comprehend that the laws of society apply to them personally. I don't think Ali's question is a reflection of an individual who suffers from that disorder. She might BE a sociopath, but there isn't anything in THIS question that would lead us to think so.
ChillinBuzz	Date: October 7, 2007 @ 10:11 AM Maybe you could help her with that question, narc!
zedsalt	Date: October 7, 2007 @ 10:44 AM As I understand it, sociopaths lack emotions, and learn early in life to rationally recognize situations in which they would be expected to express emotion and act accordingly in front of other people. If Lookin' is a sociopath, she's a damn clever one...far too clever to come out and ask for advice. Oooorrrrr...is the loving, caring persona she's always presented here overcompensation? Hmmm... Just kidding.
