Love is a funny thing.
You expect it to be easy. You expect it to be a world of roses and laughs and perfect moments that you find only
in movies.
You expect her to
always say the right thing, and
always know exactly how you feel,
or exactly how to react to it.
You expect her to calm you down when you're yelling or to chase you
when you run away.
You expect so much that you feel entirely, and utterly defeated when something doesn't exactly match up to all your plans. But that's the thing.
Love isn't a plan. It doesn't have
a certain beginning and it
certainly has no end, or a visible
finish line to those deeply in it.
Love happens; it is so
incredibly messy. People around
you can't comprehend why you do
the things you do, or why you
fight so hard for something that
seems to cause you so much pain.
Because simply, they can't see.
They can't see the invisible ring
of insanity that surrounds you
when you're in love. It's
inconvenient and painful and
devastating at times, but we can't
live without it.
What you don't learn is how hard love is. How much work it takes. How much of ourselves we have to put into it.
How it isn't worth it until we are
complete and utter idiots about it.
Love isn't her calming you
down when you yell. It's her
yelling, just as loud, just as
hard, right back at you, right in
your face to wake you up and to
keep you grounded.
I love you, more then Aladdin loves Jasmine. I love you, more then Noah loves Allie. I love you, more then Romeo loves Juliet. I love you.

That stupid thing your heart does when it won't listen to your brain yelling at it to shut up.

Love is a complicated thing; It can start out as lusting after appearance or infatuation or adoration, yet can evolve into real love if two people continue to make the effort to make progress in getting to understand each other.
Love is a feeling that eats away at us if we don't have healthy self-esteem and the one we love isn't honest with us or with themselves.
Infatuation is like having a crush and ignoring the person's flaws and acting dreamy
Lust is where you mainly go after a person for their body
Love is where you accept a person for who they are, regardless of flaws, personality, or interests

"Love is that condition in which the happiness of another is conditional to your own." Robert Heinlein from the novel "Stranger in a Strange Land" (1961)
I prefer saying "Love is that condition whereby the happiness of another is essential to your own."
I have yet to see any better definition, and I have been applying this one as an basic test for over 30 years. The definition works.
Basic tests:
1. If another is unhappy and you are happy, you do not love them.
2. If another is unhappy and you cannot be happy because of that, you love them.
3. If you love someone who is happy, you CAN be happy, but your happiness is not essential, important, or required.

"love is, a homeless guy ... searchin' for treasure in the middle of the rain and finding a bag of gold coins and slowly finding out they're all filled with chocolate and even though he's heartbroken he can't complain cuz he was hungry in the first place." -Bo Burnham
