Whats the definition of love to you? basically i think there are all kinds of love but a love for another person is what i think you mean ,other than family.

Bah! WTF is this? 50/50 love and hate, not putting in the effort... blah blah blah! It's quite simple.... Remove the sepia out dated MOVIE of what you think love is, it got bad ratings, and was a flop! And try looking at how others love... the mother for her child... the doctor for her patient... the baker with his bread... the gardener with his plants... the farmer with his dog.... That's LOVE... unselfish, freely given, with absolutely NO EXPECTATION of it being reciprocated... Love is GIVING. and until you earn it, learn it and be it, you won't have a f*ckin clue what I am on about. I havent found anyone that is willing to give yet, someone who is willing to give as much as they receive is something thats rare in this world, not for a Mother and Child or something like that but between 2 people ,as In Husband and Wife, I know how to love someone ,but never got it in return though.

Love? I knew it once...but now, I don't know. Once, I was immersed in it. Drowning in it. Accepting its ebb and flow, whether it floods my awareness, rains and showers upon me, or is the gently clinging mist of weeks of years together without a need for more than each other. Happy togetherness whether the moments or days are happy or not; more than companionship---commitment, faith in each other, fidelity to US...bravely marching on to the crippling effects of life, foreseeing that "til death do us part" is for real. For the end of it is death; the kernel of life that remains then must be buried, healed, kept safe, moistened with care, warmed to grow again towards the daylight of new life and new love. It will only be the first love, one time. Fresh and young and new to life, the first love blooms so bright and strong. It's end should be a bloody violent sudden death, to end prolonged suffering. Here...for the most part...second, third, and fourth loves are possible. All the loves before now are a burden upon our future. We are not the young, free-spirited, unblemished, pure-of-heart and innocent people. We respect the scars, know the heartache, cringe with the same shattered trust and defend against being shortchanged. I think that we develop a relationship without it intending to be love; being kin by our past and our compassion upon each other now; brothers and sisters of a sort, together by choice rather than by birth. Some of these people might attend my funeral, or at least mention me in a prayer, without feigning that they loved me. Whereas I expect no such love from relatives, none of whom ever knew me. This comraderie is thus the fulfillment of love, for mere human kindness would not generate such a bond as grows herein. The gently clinging mist that I spoke of is here, in wisps and shreds, moistening the soil wherein my kernel of life lies waiting. Love is here. A kind of love. IMO each love genuine and new. a kind of love. the kind of love. friend companion lover.

Matt... your very simple statement said it all... you are looking for a person who will give to you... which means you are TAKING... no expectations... means just that... Love isn't a commodity... there is no marketing strategy that one can use, there is no public shares one can purchase.. Mostimes in life we bungle around completely oblivious to whom may love us... for simply being us... that is LOVE... a given, without a demand for receipt.

Love is a give take situation, but I see what your saying though, I would gladly give my love to someone for nothing in return ,what I meant by that statement was, I would love someone ,I just want the same love and support in return. Otherwise, why be in a relationship to start with? I dont want anything Extrordinary out of anyone, just to know they care too, whcih I have never found.

Love is passion and friendship, compromise and giving without thought of benefit, other than the gift of seeing that person happy. Love is appreciation and respect, a bond of spirits and a like minded way of viewing the world. It is exploring differences and learning, as well as teaching and growing every day.

It's funny... I so know what love is, I just can't seem to find it. Right now I'd be very happy with the passion part, and date to just have fun. And let the chips fall where they may.
