    I know this is a very simple question but it one that I find that I ask myself alot...

    Like, I think that I love people but I honestly don't know if I am confusing it with just liking them... This isn't about crushes btw, this is about people like friends, family etc... Lately I have been feeling like I really love my best friend who I think I called M here on another thread but maybe I am confusing my friendship with him because I have told him so much about my life, he is straight though so I know nothing would come of it but I don't know if I love him as a person or just love him as a friend... It's all very confusing lol... I have even starting thinking about if I love family members or not >_>... Like how do you define love?

    I may sound silly but I am abit curious to everyone else's opinion on it.

    i define it really like for me im naturally nice and friendly so like i was thinking of this over the weekend and i was thinking like if someone tried to break into our house (i live with my two sisters and parents) while it was just me and my sisters home if need be i would take a knife and stab the intruder if need be, see im also very nonviolent like feeling uncomfortable holding a bb gun nonviolent so for me to take a knife and stab someone is like pretty extreme for me and thats here i define my love for my sisters, now if its friends then me basically taking a bullet for them is my definition

    I think love is putting another's needs before your own.

    You both beat me to it. It was the first thing I thought of when I saw the title.

    Love is very hard to define.

    I really really hate that song since the first time I heard it. I spent whole summer my brother listening it on max volume.

    Love is where you can be you, yet be loved.

    love is..
    a feeling
    an expression
    a desire

    love is no matter what, we'll face it together

    When you ask "what is...", you are really asking "what is it like?"

    And if love is unlike anything else in the universe, you will have a hard time "knowing" what it is like. And yet we know it when we see it...it's just that sometimes we don't see it, even if it is right in front of us.
