Why is it that I love to use words that I know no meaning of? What is love anyway? I care for him, I want him to be happy, I am happy just being with him, but that is counted as 'like'. In which case, doesn't love mean the same thing?

I've been searching for the meaning of love for a long time. Those of you who were in my friendster list for a long time would remember me posting a bulletin asking for the meaning of love.

It goes something like this:

Teach me how to love again, please? Seriously, I've forgotten what true love is, a kind of love you share with someone where there is no mask to hide behind, no insecurities. How does it feel to have something that special?

I know some people may tell me that love is when you see that person, your heart beats faster and all that. But isn't that just infatuation? How do you know for sure if you are in love or just plainly infatuated with someone? There IS a fine line between love and infatuation.

How do you differentiate between these two?

If love is based on trust, then what if you can't trust anyone anymore, no matter how hard you try? What if you were hurt, again and again that you can't trust anyone but yourself? Do you get to fall in love or will it be just another infatuation?

What is love anyway?

Tell me. I want to know. I want to learn how to love again.

Will you please teach me how?

Will you?

Love has always been one sided.
It is the amt of time n effort tat u put in while hoping he or she would do the same as well.

You can't tell why and what is it tat u love tat person. It can be the face, it can be the character, it can even be something else.

When that any feature of the person arouse a positive feelings in us, we would seek to know them n to know them more. In terms of psychology, this is called reinforcement.

love is not a 2 person thing. It is always one-sided with each trying their best in giving 50/50 to build up a relationship.

You cannot expect ur partner to think in the same way as u do, or holds the same beliefs as u.

But ultimatly, love is like wad the celtic knot symbolise,

"Trust in the soul, belief in the heart, faith in the mind"

These, I believe is wad every couple is trying to achieve.
