What is love?
Is it something we are taught?
Is it a feeling, an emotion, or what?
What about physical attraction?
Do looks matter in a relationship?
The English word “love” can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from pleasure (I loved that meal) to interpersonal attraction (I love my partner).
It can refer to an emotion of strong affection and personal attachment. It can also be a virtue representing human kindness, compassion, and affection,” the unselfish loyal and benevolent concern for the good of another.” It may describe compassionate and affectionate actions toward other humans, one’s self, or animals.
I don’t think that looks should matter in a relationship; it’s what’s inside the person that matters. I know someone to whom looks matter more than anything, and he is what is termed a “Player,” he is shallow and really does not know what love truly is; he tells all the ladies the same thing without meaning it to any of them how much he loves that person and that they are the only one in his life. He is missing out on so much. To him, if you are not slender, don’t bother him. That is probably why I hardly talk with him.
What is love?
It is one of the most difficult questions for mankind. Centuries have passed by, relationships have bloomed, and so has love. But no one can give the proper definition of love. To some, Love is friendship set on fire for others. Maybe love is like luck. You have to go all the way to find it.
No matter how you define it or feel it, love is the eternal truth in the history of mankind. Some have tried to use the following to define love: profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person, feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend, a person toward whom love is felt; beloved person; sweetheart, affectionate concern for the well-being of others.
Love is patient; love is kind. It has no envy, nor does it boast of itself, and it is never proud. It rejoices over the evil and is the truth seeker.
Love protects, preserves, and hopes for the positive aspects of life. Always stand steadfast in love, not fall into it. It is like the dream of your matter of affection coming true. Love can occur between two or more individuals. It bonds them and connects them in a unified link of trust, intimacy, and interdependence. It enhances the relationship and comforts the soul. Love should be experienced and not just felt. The depth of love cannot be measured. Look at the relationship between a mother and a child. The mother loves the child unconditionally, and this cannot be measured at all. A different dimension can be attained in any relationship with the magic of love.
Love can be created. You just need to focus on the goodness of the other person. If this can be done easily, then you can also love it easily. And remember, we all have some positive aspect in us, no matter how bad our deeds may be.
God said to us, "LOVE ALL."Depending on the context, love can be of different varieties. Romantic love is deep, intense, and unending. They shared a very intimate interpersonal and sexual relationship. The terms Platonic love, familial love, and religious love are also matters of great affection. It is more about desire, preference, and feelings. The meaning of love will change with each different relationship and depends more on its concept of depth, versatility, and complexity. But at times, the very existence of love is questioned. Some say it is false and meaningless. Some say that it doesn’t exist because there have been many instances of hatred and brutality in relationships. But love is not responsible for that. It is us, the people who have forgotten the meaning of love, who have undertaken such gruesome apathy.
In terms of interpersonal attraction, four forms of love have traditionally been distinguished based on ancient Greek precedent: the love of family, the love of friendship, the love of sexual and/or romantic desire, and divine love. This diversity of uses and meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define compared to other emotional states.
The word “love” can have a variety of related but distinct meanings in different contexts and cultures. Interpersonal love refers to love between human beings. It is a more potent sentiment than a simple liking for another. Unrequited love refers to those feelings of love that are not reciprocated. Interpersonal love is most closely associated with interpersonal relationships. And this love might exist between family members, friends, and couples. Empty love only includes commitment. Romantic love includes both intimacy and passion. Companionate love includes intimacy and commitment. Fatuous love includes passion and commitment. Lastly, consummate love includes all three.
There are many different theories that attempt to explain what love is and what function it serves. It would be very difficult to explain love to a hypothetical person who had not experienced love or being loved. In fact, to such a person, love would appear to be quite strange, if not outright irrational behavior.
Also, there are theories that consider love to be an unexplainable mystery, very much like a mystical experience. Love also includes compatibility. I think that it is more of the journey to the unknown when the concept of compatibility comes into the picture. Maybe the person whom we see in front of us may be less compatible than the person who is miles away. We might talk to each other and portray that we love each other, but practically, we do not end up in any relationship. Also, in compatibility, the key is to think about a long-term successful relationship, not a short journey. We need to understand each other and must always remember that nobody is perfect.
Be together, share your joy and sorrow, understand each other, and provide space for each other, but always be there for each other. And surely love will blossom to strengthen your relationship.
