There are different types of love: Love between spouses, love between parents and children, love of a pet, love of a sibling, love of chocolate... but since it's a Valentine's day program you were watching I'm going to assume you are asking about the kind of love you feel for a significant other. It's hard to describe. It's not quite need, and it's much stronger than friendship. Being in love is bliss. It's when you can't imagine being without the other person. You can feel it physically sometimes in your gut, like the feeling of eating a whole entire cheesecake by yourself except without the bloatedness or guilt.

If you ask me what i s air,may be i would ask you to feel.this is something similar to love.love is felt and i would run out of words to explain it in words,but its a feeling that keeps the interdependence of human beings intact,a feeling of intimact and a relatioship or the start of it where one expects the same thing in return and probably happiness too.

If you ask one hundred people, you will get a hundred different answers. Love is very subjective, there is no real answer as to what it is or what it means. It has so may different meanings, feelings, reasons, etc. you could write a book on it and I'm sure several have already been written, along with millions of songs, poems, stories, movies, articles, etc. I could ask you, "Which Love are you talking about?" as there are so many different kinds of love. there is love of a partner, love of your children, family, country, etc. Each one of those loves is different and unique. Of course, I do probably know what you are asking here, since you mentioned Valentines Day, but even on V Day we send cards to our kids and parents, granparaents, bosses, friends, etc. Being in love and falling in love are also different meanings than a deep love that has developed over years, then there is love that is disquised as lust, love that is self satisfying, self gratifying and deceitful. To find out if you really love someone, ask this question "would you die for them?" If the answer is "yes" then it's real love.

the love, that is the things that all the people try to find it, the first love that we met is love the mother, that the child be happy when he with his mom and spend time with her, and from time to time when she busy, he will cry to be around him, the loves means that you want your own lover to be with you all the time, and in this time you feel happy, and when you feel that your lover busy , you do anything to get her attention, and you be angry and mad when you see your own lover give attention to someone else, and that explain what the little child do when his mom play with another son, he active aggressivly, and when a guy see his girlfriend with someone else.

yes you can acquired different answers to defined love...for me....it is the feeling that you can not explain...but true love is not selfish and understand all things.
