What defines Love?

[Amnestic]

i can make love into a mathematical equation!

watch:

love = lust + friendship

Love does not work that way.
Also math is for jerks.

The artist and writer of XKCD frowns upon your shenanigans.

A week ago, someone broke up with me. And they said "I love you, but I'm not in love with you".

People who say that deserve a crotchpunch. Such a cop-out. It's just saying "It's not you, it's me." with new fancy terminology because everyone on the planet has already twigged on that such an excuse is bulldookey 90% of the time.

The only demands I have from someone who tells me they love me, is a hug a day and a good conversation. Anything past that is a bonus.

Don't say things like that, you'll get all manner of people messaging you now professing their undying love, offering hugs and 'good' conversation.

Well that's a slight exaggeration I'd hope, but I've been around the internet long enough to know it's not that far off reality at times.

I shall give you the biblical definition of what love is: 1 Corinthians 13: 8, Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.

I hear most marriages are built on selective lies and omitting certain truths to maintain an equilibrium.

I have yet to meet someone who is entirely honest, in love or out.

Love means that you would give your life for someone you care about deeply, and you would never betray or hurt them.

I think what the more literal interpretation is that love doesnt mean to do wrong, and tries to do right. No one is perfect, and no-one who loves you expects you to be, but they do expect you to try.

I fully agree and understand so much with this comment.

Love is a feeling of happyness. It can be generated by an inanimate object (i.e paintings), audio, Interaction (i.e partners on a more complex level, Xbox on a simpler one), Or just simply being.

Self Confidence is a form of love.

Love is a slightly pleasurable emotion that will never be worth the intense pain of the years of heartbreak bound to ensue. If you find yourself feeling this 'love', terminate the cause quickly to minimize the effects of heartbreak.

No joke.
