Do any of you think that love really exists? I mean depending how or what you consider love, but to LOVE someone inconditionally, to think of him or her everyday, just to think of him/her, make your life around that person. Is that love? or is it something else? or let me take another aproach to the matter, what is love? can someone describe it?

Some people make love to be something bigger than it is. Love really does exist, but in different forms, and in ways people simply take for granted. For instance, the love a parent has for a child, or the love of a close friend that you've been through many hardships with. There's also love for your brothers and sisters, and people you treat as brothers and sisters.

The existence of love simply depends on how broad or narrow the definition of love is to a person. To me, it's simply to like something/someone at a greater level. It's the difference between being simply happy and being ecstatic, or being a little sad and being downright miserable.

Love's just a lot of dopamine in your brain causing symptoms similar to obsessive-compulsive disorder.

And life is just a side-effect of aggregate cells operating through genetic instruction, right? You fool.

do you believe in love at first sight? I mean, is that even possible? mmm I am still doubting about if love as such exists and then a friend told me he fell in love at first sight.

>>10 he means lust or infatuation at first sight.

Love isn't something that just happens, it's something you build upon. Last girl I was with, we hated each other for the longest time and we argued all the time. Eventually, we just got used to each other's company, and shit rocked from there onwards.

>>12 isn't an infatuation or the lust just temporary? do you think what we call love is just temporary? I mean, can yu really reaaaally stop loving someone? because I thonk if its like >>13 said, something that you build upon, then as it may start it may finish, right? fffffffffffff, this is a complicated matter.

>>12 lol lust is just sexual attraction and infatuation is the superficial attraction one experiences at the juvenile stage of a relationship..lust and infatuation can develop into love, but it is not love, except if you use the word extrememly loosely...but just like I could say "I love my new shoes" it doesn't mean I really really love them y'know.

love is a chemical reaction. love at first sight is certainly possible. enduring affection over the years, thats mostly mental. lame thread overall, OP are you 13? love is not about thinking of someone on a daily basis, or feeling the same way forever, that is the shit of teenagers and fairytales.

love is just an abstract term for a similar feeling that is interpreted differently by every person at different points in their lives. with divorce rates as high as they are in this country, real love is about enduring someone. if the lifespan of a human wasnt so short, you wouldnt have all the fairytales about couples staying together forever. once two people become old enough that they are no longer physically attractive, the 'love' is completely different. if you choose to continue to endure the other person, its because youve come to understand and accept that person. most people never get that far, and theyd like to switch because their partners are no longer attractive, except they cant because neither are they.
