Default Love?

–noun 1. a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person.

2. a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend.

Some people say that kids can't be in love with someone else their age, or be in love just in general.

Discuss, debate.

It hard to decide really.

I know some people who go out with someone for a day and they reckon they are in love, but love grows, don't you think?

Sure you can be young and be in love, but i'd say you should have known/be with that person for a good amount of time to call youur feelings love.









Baby is this love for real?
Let me in your arms to feel,
the beating of your heart baby...

With i guess it all matters on what you define a kid, and what sort of love we are talking about.
Because a kid can be anyone young, and young is relative.

And love has so many definitions it is hard to say.


My opinion, is its all lust or something simpler. Something like true love that old people have, i doubt is the same thing.

Well, this is hard to explain. They will obviously love their parents/guardians... but I dont think they know the meaning of the word love.

For my work experience I am working at a child minders, and one of the kids said to me 'I love *insert name* she is so pretty' <-- That shows that they might know that they know what love is... but he might just be saying that in a friendly way :/


So i am not sure

My girlfriend and I have been together for 4 months and 25 days (I count, deal with it)

I would do anything forr her, I lose sleep for her, I deal with her problems, I'm always there, and I can say that I love her. Not for sex, but for her. I love her, and I fancy myself smart enougb to know my emotions.

Maybe it is an infatuation, but I find myself wanting her more and more, it doesn't seem to be going away

I love her, and if I don't, what do u call it?

Well it can be love, but not all love lasts.
So really, it's more so knowing when you REALLY do love someone for real, and whether it lasts or not. Ive been in love, many times. Which I don't really pride myself in because I hate the idea of being in love with a bunch of people in my life, however, I hold onto that there's one true love for me. I believe there's different levels and I don't think we could ever understand or figure out the levels. Each man Ive been in love with, the love has been different.. so, I guess it's each as their own in the situation. I think most people say they love way too early, or lightly. However, it does exist it just doesn't normally always last.
With my exs a few of them I surely thought I was going to marry. I was just like you were Zach, but things do change. Doesn't change that I loved them, just things changed. Not all love is meant to last, some helps us in the mean time, some teaches us, some makes us grow and mature, etc. So whatever you have, whether it lasts or not, the fact is it's good now and to not count on it for forever, cause you may never know when your feelings change because I sure as hell would have never suspected that mine did, but they did. And I'm glad they did, Ive mature so much even just sometimes within a few months. I'm so surprised what I look for now in a man, compared to what I did back then. It's really crazy how fast things can change. So just enjoy what you have, don't count on it for forever and just don't worry about defining it or defending it, no one can change how yous feel so there's no point in worrying about them.









Little white flowers will never awaken you, not when the cold depths have all but overtaken you.

Dearest, The days are all so long,
and in the shadows I spend them all.
My heart and I long for slumber.
Slumber I'm caressing you, I bless your touch, I lust for you.
Slumber you are not a dream, Not as much as you seem.

I think everyone is able to love, although one's perception of love changes from age to age. The definition of love also varies from people to people, and from age to age aswell. So there's not absolute awnser to this awnser, it's all relative. It depends on the person you ask and the age of the person you ask.

If you ask me? I don't believe in true platonic love like the one we hear about. I believe romantic love is a mix of passion + lust. The love which keeps us together with a person however, is friendship love, which you can share with your family, friends and your partner. This friendship love is included inside the romantic love. Romantic love can disappear as easily as it appears, or it may last for decades, while friendship love is forever, unless disturbed by some event.

Those are my beliefs, but they're far from absolute. Like I said, it depends on the person.









Mistakes are made, and regrets are our luggage; we will drag them with us to slow us down.
The victories are flashes of light, sudden and unlasting, which allow us to glimpse the road ahead before darkness descends.


Love is bitter, yet it is the bread that keeps us. Over and over it fills us up, only to starve us.
The people whom we love shape our destinies and our strengths,yet leave us cold and alone in the darkness.

Default Re: Love?

Anyone of any age can love.
parents and children,siblings etc.
There are different kinds of love. The love I feel for my husband is not the same sort of love I feel for my parents and it is again different than the love I feel for my brother or best friend.

However, I don't believe that most children(because that's what the majority of them are, let's face it) don't really experience true romantic love until they experience the sacrifices one must often make for their significant other, or live with someone to understand just how trying it can be sometimes and whatnot. I can't think of more examples off the top of my head atm. I'll edit if I remember some.

However, It dumbfounds me just how many girls are convinced that their cheating boyfriend still loves them and that's why he always comes crawling back.

It never occurs to them that they are just the girl sitting on the backburner while he test drives other girls to find someone better and when he doesn't, it's okay because she's naive enough that he can just spew some "I love yous" and she'll welcome him back with open legs.
-_-
Taking back a cheater doesn't make you love them either.
It simply makes you foolish.

lol sorry rambling.

Edit: Basically, I believe that true love is something that has to be made, for lack of a better word. There's no such thing as love at first sight, it's something you have to work at and for someone the think they're in love after being with someone for a week is just ridiculous IMO.
Lust=/=Love.
