Love for me is when you see someone as they really are, when you know they are not perfect, and you see all their flaws without rose tinted glasses. It's when you accept them as they are without trying to change them. Its when you work through the hard times together and come out fighting at the end. Love is when you are able to trust someone with all your secrets, desires, hopes and dreams, and know that they will always be there to support you, and will never use them to hurt you. Love is being able to forgive, without question or fear. Being able to say sorry and finding acceptance. Love is knowing whatever happens, they will always be by your side. How about yourself? What is love for you?

You did pretty good there, kiddo. I agree with everything that you wrote and can only add that love is also enjoying someone's company regardless of what you're doing and being comfortable with that person. I'm not wild about grease and gunk but sometimes hanging out with my husband leads to that when there are motorcycles involved.

There is a lot of talk about love. We use the word in different ways. Some people say, Love can motivate people to do things for people that they would not normally do. Love can cause young people to do foolish things at times. Love gives meaning to people who would other wise have no purpose in life. But the greatest demonstration of love is to give our life for the person we love. :) That's LOVE! :)

Love means,the real care you show to some one for growth,developement and a life to lead a meaningful life. Love is a positive attitute. It has many fold. It is for the respondent to utlise it in a proper way to realise it's value.

Wow, I agree with the things you said, and to add to that, may I say that I think Love is a decision and a commitment. You don't just love someone whenever you like it. When you say you love someone, you stick my him / her through all the good and bad, happy and sad
