True love doesn't exist; that is, the Romanricised conception that two people can devout themselves so completely and without even the slightest doubt. Humans are not that perfect. We are irrational, sexual beings. Love is just a pretty idea.

Arranged marriages seemed to serve society pretty well up until recently.

the day you realise how imperfect they are but still you say 'hey, you're actually not half bad afterall'

lol nah, but seriously.. i don't necessarily believe in the idea of having a 'soul mate' (aka 'the one') or finding your 'true love at first sight'... well, at least i wont until i experience or see it happen..

and the big bang theory is pretty damn awesome xD

hrmm yea i think i made the wat is love thread ages ago! lol dw nuffin too productive or helpful there anyway....

Umm i think love is when your heart skips a beat wen yu see the person, when you seem to have them at the back of your mind all the time, when you see an IMPERFECT person, PERFECTLY *apparently* ... lol i wasnt in love with either of my ex's .. so im not speaking from experience :p

I consider it the strongest form of attraction - that encompasses physical, emotional and intellectual... appreciation and desire of the other person.

I honestly don't think it is something you can fully describe....if you are in love, then you will just know. =)

Love is when your brain releases pheromones, dopamine, norepinephrine, and serotonin. It has the same effect as taking amphetamines.

love = taking drugs

Wanting to be with somebody BECAUSE of their flaws and imperfections, not in spite of them
