Define Love
Love is to derive or receive pleasure from; get enjoyment from; take pleasure in other human beings
Hahahaha...love it!
Not at all my "illiterate" compadre:
My use of the word "your" was exactly right.
"...the only "REAL" love you'll ever know is the love you feel when your children are born!
It won't have to be defined!"
If you didn't understand the depth of meaning and content in that response, I suggest you try to gain a greater level of sophistication in your life.
There is only 1 true definition of love! I expessed it concisely above.:
QwarkI think he is right in using the "your".....read it again..
he is pertaining to 'your' answer. he just added an adjective - 'uneducated and inexperienced' to describe your answer......and not you..
but yeah I don't agree with "his" only 1 true definition of love..Qwark:
I'm too young to have a child. And I can't offer you a constant answer that would come from my own experience. I agree with what you've said, and I do get your point. I'm just having a problem in your use of the "only" word.
It's just that, for me, meaning of things differs from place, time and situation. Maybe in your point of view, it is the only definition of true love. However, you are just 1 of the zillion unique homo sapiens in this planet, yeah maybe there are 100 to 200 individuals that have the same experience like you do, but that would just sum up with 10% of the worlds' population. And that 90% left to have their own definition of love based on their...(for your brains' easy digestion)...ahm...intellectual ability.
I'm fascinated on the fact that you still want to hear an answer from me even though you are very sure to yourself that my answer would not be a credible one.
Extinct SoulSoul:
Good attitude. I "loved" the way you responded i.e. thoughtfully respectfully. TY.
There is no other answer. At least not to a sane and normal human being.
You can use the word 'love" expressively for so many things: I love my Mom, my Dad, I love football, orange juice, p-nut butter and chocolate, country... on and on infinitum. The closest you will come to "true love" for your "child" is love for a parent. Every other use of the word "love" is just expressive for an attraction.
I would give my life to save the life of my child. For a mother or a father? Eh, maybe, maybe not.
There are so many connotations of the word love and they are used so frequently for so many "feelings" about so many things, that they, in the main, can only be thought of as being a colloquial expression of emotion or feeling.
The reason I'm so sure that you cannot respond credibly is because you haven't experienced child birth.
someday, when you do, I want you to remember how Qwark defined "true love.":
Qwark
I get it Qwark, your definition of Love isn't based on words but feeling, and the strongest possible feeling of Love is when you experience the birth of your child. I like that.
It puts men and women in the same boat since only women can experience a physical birth, but men go through an experience of some kind themselves.RAf:
TY!
I went thru a very profound and life changing experience when my son was born that educated me instantly to the definition/meaning of "love." It was the only "real" love I've ever felt in my life!
I know you know what I mean!
Appreciate ya Raf!:
QwarkI just want to say I agree AND disagree with you Qwark. As always, your views are interesting, intelligent, and quite strong, but I'd just like to add my spin on this, if that is ok with you
As you pointed out "love" can be expressive of many things, and yet there are also many different types of love.
The thing is we get our word "love" from the Greeks, and they have 6 different versions of the word, all with different meanings, which we translate into our one. Thus, just like having to give a yes or no answer to a very comples subject with many different sides, it's a word that is there to "do the job" in place of many other words. This makes it versatile, and yet at the same time very inadequate in a lot of situations.
In other words there is no "only" kind of love because of this method of translation.
I think we've dated some of the same women.

0I define love as the love we receive from our higher power.
I see love as a doing thing and wrote a hub about it.

love just "is". to experience love is to have a instantaneous complimentary balance of opposites. you are "charge free" and emotions are totally balanced. you emotions are created to tell you that you are out of balance. that is a "charge". when others reflect back to you the crap about yourself you have not loved yet, welcome to life and the true "law of atraction". everything in the universe we know is made from light waves. all light waves have both half positive and half negative complimentary balanced. all of life is "frozen light" in quantum. you are love, so are the haters.

I believe it does change and evolve after you've been in a relationship or marriage for awhile (and that's not a bad thing), but I might be wrong, so I'd like to hear other opinions.My boyfriend stopped telling me that he loves me 4 months ago. We live together, and just had a child together...
