I heard this phrase. " Everyone knows women love more than men.." And I thought no I Don't! I think the ability to love is unisex and it depends on the person How deeply they love. But I thought I would ask you. Do you believe women can love deeper than men?

I agree with you, I think the capacity to love has nothing to do with whether you are a man or a woman, it has to do with how you as a person deeply feel about someone. I have known couples who were in love, but it was clearly visible that the guy was more into the girl. Women love differently, for instance, they fall in love more easily and too quickly, in my opinion, whereas the man will love you but is slower to say it or show it, but that doesn't mean that he love you less deeply. I would rather a love that is steady, deep, and true instead or fast and shallow.Both partners can delivery these types or relationships.

In my case the guy fell faster! My guy fell for me Way before I fell for him. Thankfully, he waited! And now we love each other equally.

Hi Sara! Women are considered more emotional than men, therefore it is possible that they love deeply. Though, there is no scale as such to measure 'love', therefore it cannot be said either that men do not love deeper like women. :-)

Being Emotional doesn't automatically mean a person's feelings are deeper than a stoic person. I find it sad that many Assume that women are miore loving Only because they are allowed to show more emotions.

I agree with you that being emotional does not mean that a woman will love deeper, loving someone has many other things, which are essential to show your love.

I don't think that's true at all. do you know what my husband just did? He made me one of my favourite Danish treats for a late night snack. It's almost midnight, I wanted something to eat, and he wandered out to the kitchen and cooked it!!!! That's pretty friggen awesome. Then when I told him how much I appreciated it he just looked shocked and said "what? Don't ALL husbands do this?" :) I'd say we love about equally.

Tell him No not All husbands do that. In fact It is reversed in most households. She is the one cooking because he is hungry.

No i don't believe that. Because i saw many man who loves there partner more then girl do. But man are more strong then women and that's why they don't get hurt very easily or they can recover there sad very easily what girls can't. So i don't believe it. Have a good time!

I think the opposite is true. Because we teach boys The Have to be strong, when they let themselves fall in love and it doesn't work out , it hurts them more deeply.

No friend I do not believe that women are the only ones that love more then men. I have a wonderful boyfriend who has shown me what love truly is. I believe we love each other equally and for me to say I love more then him would be wrong.

I am as lucky as you . My guy and I love each other equally. And it would be wrong for me to say I love him more than he loves me. I think it is sad that many think women love more. Does that mean they settle for less love?

You make an excellent point!! Because if I love my boyfriend more then he loves me then I am not being properly reciprocated.

I think men are also capable of loving as much as a women does. since women are more expressive, they tend to show or express their feelings more freely as compared to men who may show their love differently. but bottomline, they can also love as deep as a woman, just in a different way.

That's totally not true. We are all able to love with the equal amount. We all have the tools to do this - so it's a pretty easy, and short, response. No.

Yes, I believe that women can love deeper than men. It is very normal to see that a woman can wait for a man for her whole life. Whereas it is hardly to see a man who can do so. A woman is much more emotional and she can be faithful than a man much more. I love China

I think waiting and who is faithful and who isn't has nothing to do with how Deep your love is. It just shows If you can love at all. Just because a woman Can wait and a guy can not doesn't mean he loves her any less when they finally meet.

Women are emotional creatures and they are ruled by the heart which is the center and seat of emotions.Man is ruled by the head and therefore is less emotional.Since the heart is also the place where we feel love, women tend to love deeply and fiercly.When a woman loves a man, she loves him completely, heart and soul.If the man does not respond properly or if he is unfaithful then the woman gets hurt deeply and she can also fight fiercely to keep her man with her.Women are extremely possesive and will never be unfaithful or give up their love.

Unless All men who have affairs are sleeping with other men Only , women have affairs too. " Women tend to love deeply and fiercely."Really? Are you saying that a woman should never even expect to be loved back by a man in the same intensity?And that All women Don't think , they just feel and All men Only think and Never feel? Not only is that sad but not true! For every man who thinks before doing anything Especially fall in love , there is a woman who thinks just as much. I don't believe in how much a person shows others the love they feel . in other words I wouldn't assume a man didn't love his partner because he never gushed about her/him! Or would I assume it Has to be love because a woman can't stop talking about her beau/belle!

I'm not sure if it's a hundred percent true but i do agree that women most of the time gave their all when love hits them. Women often don't use their brain when they fell unlike men who often use their mind most of the time. As i observe their are more thinker than expressing their real feelings. I guess both parties are the same, depending on the level of love and how they express it. Men capable of loving "deeply" but they usually hold on to that until they are sure of. They are wiser.

For every " non Thinking " women in love , there is a guy that is Just as non thinking. There are guys who give Everything to the one they love and there are women who Never really express how they feel.

This is definitely not true at all. I know guys who fall to fast and love way to hard to end up getting hurt way to soon. I have a guy friend like this, and I've always told him to get to truely know a person before you say you are in love with her. He pretty much hops from women to women and claim that they all are "the one" and none of them were. So, this, in my opinion is not true at all. Interesting discussion though!

I don't think it is straightforwardly right, but nevertheless I still think it is...Women are synonymous with love and feeling - just see the words of your women friends when they updated their status on social networking site, many of them are about their feelings at the moment... Women appreciate the feeling of love more than men, and I think they love something deeper than men...Indeed love is unisex, but still men are not dominant over women in this feeling issues...

I disagree, women just express love better. It does not mean men feel love less than women.Just because a guy doesn't Tell Everybody how much he loves Does not mean he isn't in love.

We all are different... Thus we love differently. But thatdoes not mean we love less right? For both men and women, i do not thnk the latter loves more because of gender.

Nope...I believe we think about love differently...but usually I see men who really, love devastated when the love is lost....I think we love go different degrees anyway....but both men and woman love deeply!

I do not think so. I believe both sexes love similarly. I agree with you that love largely depends on the person. It is undeniable that in both genders there are cheaters, thus, both sexes can love the other greatly or less.

I think it depends on the situation or person.Some women love more while in other situations the man loves more.It really is not one sided.Plus most men just don't display their emotions as much as women but that doesn't mean they do love less.

yes u are right its an excellent discussion u are taking. I hope this is best discussion. Women love deeper than men of course she loves even deeper and deeper than me why because even the women fallen in love with some person what they do they never leave that person one time they love any one they never leave even they do anything for love not men they are not doing for love the women is the mother of total earth because they built us in her stomach even the women prepared us in his stomach before our birth takes place see which type of love it is, its a mother's love but women love's deeper always there is question about that word love. she loves one time she do anything and women has a biggest power in this world.
