I think... one cannot say it is love unless it is reciprocated. My girlfriend is 16 and I absolutely believe she loves me as much as I love her. I also think it has something to do with how one goes about expressing this love for another.. to where your other can see it the way you do and can compare how they feel.

Love seems to be a process that has so many steps and variables to get there, but at the same time, with the right person, we just know all those steps saying and doing exactly what needs to be said and done at all the right times.

i think love depends on the person.
if your someone who says i love you so you can have sex. then no thats not really love. (atleast not to me) love is something that means more. the person that you love is someone that you can be with and feel comfortable talking to not just someone who will have sex with you. it pisses me off so much when people say i love you and you listen to them and all they ever do is brag about how far they have gotten with their date. it disgusts me that people claim to be in love yet have sex with someone then leave them for someone else just because some little thing about them annoys them.
one question i have to someone who says to their partner, i love you, how much do you know about that person.
do you know their favorite color?
their food?
what they want to do?
fantasies?
nightmares?
even their birthdate?
how can you say you love someone when you dont even know small things about that person?

Love:
I don't pretend to know what love is for everyone, but I can tell you what it is for me; love is knowing all about someone, and still wanting to be with them more than any other person, love is trusting them enough to tell them everything about yourself, including the things you might be ashamed of, love is feeling comfortable and safe with someone, but still getting weak knees when they walk into a room and smile at you.

love has no age.

First, in response to zyphon, I don't think it matters how much you know about the person, more so that you're always wanting to know more. I for instance can answer every question you listed about my girlfriend, but I always want to know more. I think if I lost that desire to learn more about her, that would be the point where I would say I was out of love, even though I may still care for her.

I for one feel that love is exactly like this quote...

quote:

---

"Love is patient; love is kind; love is not envious or arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; it does not rejoice in wrongdoing, but rejoices in the truth. It bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things. Love never ends."

"Balance comes to all things in time. Some make it their duty to tear it apart. It is my duty to balance it out once more."

sorry isilomir i didnt mean to suggest that you only had to know those things about someone to love them it was just an example that how can you be seriously in love with someone if you know nothing of them. i know there are people who have the whole i saw you and i just knew thing, but it helps to get to know the person more than knowing that she or he will do something if you just say the words. although they have seemed to have lost there meaning to alot of people today.
