well according to my friend (who never shuts the fuck up about it) love is when being away from someone makes you feel like shit and being with them is like one long orgasm.
that is pretty good for me but it is also never feeling uneasy or unsure of yourself around them.

I'd say that love is a mutual obsession. This would be somewhat accurate if it weren't for unrequited love and the fact that chocolate, when large quantities are consumed, has been reported to produce a similar feeling.
Love is known to lower serotonin levels in the brain, effectively making you crazy. It does cause obsession.
It's important to note that when you make your final decision what you think love is, it should include all kinds of love, platonic and romantic.

chemical response in the brain to encourage reproduction. you can duplicate the feeling with a chemistry set and over the counter meds. I will say one thing though, because of the adrenaline (those butterflies that you feel when you're near your honey) the fond memories last longer then they should hence the notion that love is always a pleasant thing when remembering it.
If you're interested I think those feelings can be just as easily blocked by drugs as well, although I'd have to ask around to know which ones and the safe dosage.

What many people I think fail to see is that there is a distinct difference from Love and Lust.
Love is an appreciation between people going beyond like, and lust is just a desire for sex, outward appearances and such.

Also,
Biologically it is the chemical method used by nature to keep us together for the purpose of making more of us. Of course when you feel it yourself, your not going to describe it as 'x chemical reaction leads to y chemical bonding and ect ect'. It is impossible to truly describe the way you feel in words alone.

Something I'm missing out on. I'm off to go cut my wrists now.
And now I've got the song "I want to know what love is" in my head.

It's when you'll do anything to be with the person you love, and you can talk for hours upon hours about nothing and enjoy every moment of it. It's when the thought of her sends your heart fluttering into a panic. Each kiss is as wonderful as the first, and holding each other is all you could wish for.
I think I let the one girl I loved float away
. Maybe I'll find another.

You've been sitting on this thread with an iron fist, joswie, and kinda mean to the people who've posted in it. This is an off-topic thread, so expect a little silliness on occasion, it won't get locked so long as most of us stay on topic.
Love is hard to describe. I think love is synonym for like, and a very close one at that. It's a sort of Like 2.0, with shiny bells and whistles. I can't really separate how I define "love" from "like a lot."
I love my friends with a passion, just like I love all of my ex-girlfriends. "Love" itself is a weird word, because everyone uses it as something that's exclusive, that's definite. I don't think I'll ever be able to define love that way, and I suppose it makes me special (in the same way that riding the short bus and wearing a safety helmet makes one special), but not a way I think is wrong.
Who knows, I'm weird. But, safe to say, I love me for it.
