Love is pretty kickass. Only problems are-

I've never "been" I don't think. Sarah was a bitch.
Most times I like a girl, it'll last about 2 weeks. Then I move on.
You bastards got my topic locked.

So that's where I'm at with love. I love topics about myself, until they get locked.

All you need is love.

And money and food and air and crap, but y'know, that's irrelivant.

I have crappy luck with love.

I couldn;t be bothered trying to fall in love, or pretending that I am in love.
I don;t believe in true love, or love at first site... and if they do exist then you don;t have choice do you, it just happens? Which makes falling in love seem like destiny (you can't control it), and I don;t believe in destiny or any of that shit, so I don;t believe in true love or love at first sight. But...

Prove me wrong world, prove me wrong...

I love my mum and my dad and my brother and my sisters.
But when it comes to girls I just let my genitals decide.

genitals are god.

Loving your family because they're family is a completely differant love. If they weren't my family I'd probably hate them and insult them more often.

love is such a wide term:

There is the love for your family, which sometimes spans every feeling from hate to affection, the love of items, like how I like lemons and lime, or shiny things, and then there's the love of activities, I love dancing, and then the love of a person, which is the bitchy and betraying type of love.

When being away from them for one second is too long, thats love
when you can never be with them enough, thats love

Love is kinda hard to define, but I managed to bring it down to two lines.

How about we forget about love and hate everyone?

"A reaction caused by hormones, usually overexaggerated by stupid fools and almost worshipped, however it's just another name for "attraction" in the sense of wanting to reproduce with another specimen of your species"

I little less simple and perfect.
But it's the truth in the western countries for about 99% of the boys/girls.

Triangle Theory of Love wrote:Forms of love
Combinations of intimacy, passion, and commitment
Liking or Friendship intimacy
Infatuation or Limerence passion
Empty love commitment
Romantic love intimacy passion
Companionate love intimacy commitment
Fatuous love (Whirlwind romance) passion commitment
Consummate love intimacy passion commitment

The relative emphasis of each component changes over time as an adult romantic relationship develops.

Liking includes only one of the love components - intimacy. In this case, liking is not used in a trivial sense. Sternberg says that this intimate liking characterizes true friendships, in which a person feels a bondedness, a warmth, and a closeness with another but not intense passion or long-term commitment.

Infatuated love consists solely of passion and is often what is felt as "love at first sight." But without the intimacy and the commitment components of love, infatuated love may disappear suddenly.

Empty love consists of the commitment component without intimacy or passion. Sometimes, a stronger love deteriorates into empty love, in which the commitment remains, but the intimacy and passion have died. In cultures in which arranged marriages are common, relationships often begin as empty love.

Romantic love is a combination of intimacy and passion. Romantic lovers are bonded emotionally (as in liking) and physically through passionate arousal.

Companionate love consists of intimacy and commitment. This type of love is often found in marriages in which the passion has gone out of the relationship, but a deep affection and commitment remain.

Fatuous love has the passion and the commitment components but not the intimacy component. This type of love can be exemplified by a whirlwind courtship and marriage in which a commitment is motivated largely by passion, without the stabilizing influence of intimacy.

Consummate love is the only type of love that includes all three components--intimacy, passion and commitment. Consummate love is the most complete form of love, and it represents the ideal love relationship for which many people strive but which apparently few achieve. Sternberg cautions that maintaining a consummate love may be even harder than achieving it. He stresses the importance of translating the components of love into action. "Without expression," he warns, "even the greatest of loves can die

Personally, the more passionate varieties seem vaguely primitive; logic and reason overriden by passion and emotion.

I've occasionally wondered if that "one true love" thing is real, and if so if mine is in tibet or dead or a guy or something. /random

Love is rarely ever properly understood by anyone, and is never understood by lovers.

...cryptic statements rock.
