Love is when you watch your partner from the otherside of the room twitching, screaming at the floor and doing generally strange things....and whilst you're watching them, you're thinking..."I love you so much, Gretchen"...other people are thinking..."WHAT THE HELL IS THAT PERSON DOING!?"

If you love someone, set them free. If they come back to you, put several blades through their head. If they still come back, then RUN. Just RUN.

Love is anything you want it to be.
We all see love a difrent way.
I have no idea what love is but I know that what I have is enough to keep me happy.

I believe it does make sense, though, in a very complex way. I'm sure there's more to it than the stuff I've mentioned but I believe most everything can be rationalized.

when you have had a terrible day and you're stressed, tired, hungry, cold, sick, overwhelmed, sore, completely miserable, and if one more thing goes wrong you are just going to burs into tears, then you feel warm, strong arms wrap around you and you feel like the happiest person in the world. That is love. It is not perfect, or easy to find, but it is real and it is the most amazing thing in the world.

If love is all you need, than where does sex come in?

Love backwards is Evol.

Like "Evil", but too dumb to spell it correctly. Like Emo.

No, sex has nothing to do with love, save by accident.

Love is not meant to lead to sex, I have loved many people that I would never boink- and I love them more deeply than those I have boinked. Welcome to Mutual of Omaha's WIld Kingdom, Marlin Perkins is STILL dead.

::Hugs MollyMac for the absolute awesomness of everything she says::

Love is beautiful
Sex can be awesome
But if you have sex with someone you love
It is beautifully awesome

There's a reason it's called "Making Love"

Love....hmmmmm...

Reminds me of that Beatles song, "all you need is love....."

Not that I believe such a thing. In this world I believe you need money.

But I really do like the Beatles.

It's a beautiful idea but is not quite so satifying in practice.

Love is the eventuality of the random practice of organisms throughout time to bond together and increase their chances of living comfortably. It is responsible for the inherited practice of keeping a lifelong partner and parenting children. Love is without point or purpose, but by existing, it adds a new element to sentient life.

Additionally, it is also a way to get people to post four pages without reading a single other person's responses.
