Everyone in this world knows what is the meaning of love and it also involved in everyone's life from different relationship but what's your thought about the love.

lust is the physical attraction

my family are ugly, but i still love them

love is about caring and wanting to help/protect them, wanting to do something positive for others, and the feeling of something positive done to you by others

Many people think that love is just a physical attraction but I don't agree.
It's much more, true love gives strength, energy, confidence etc.
Problem is that many people calculate if they will love someone or not and waiting first to receive something before they give.
If other person thinks the same, it will not work.
The source of love is not in us but in God.
In our lives, we just pass on that love to others, and we need to give it unconditionally, because that's how we got it.

Love is a broad subject.
Talking about the love among opposite sexes or a (probable) husband and wife relationship, such love experiences are unique for every individuals.
Most people when coming to age, seeks a person from opposite sex to fulfill their physical needs. Whatever you may call it, it's a nature's call to breed.
While going through fulfilling the desire, some people develops an emotional bonding to the partner. In some cases it becomes so strong that the physical relation feels like a secondary activity and keeping each others happy becomes the prime one.

Here I want to mention about love between the couple,someone who got attracted or love each other and want to get married which is really true love or they got attracted?

I feel today's relationship(love) between the opposite sex is only happening due to their attrative physical appearance,maybe some exceptions but lets talk about the majority here.

There's a number of things that add to being with someone. You can feel attraction at first sight but it's not love. Love develops over time. You can't really love someone you haven't talked to. Teenagers see someone and like to say they fell in love but it's just the first stage. If you don't keep meeting and talking to each other the feeling will disappear or get redirected to someone else.

Its called infatuation correct me if I am wrong but it just happens with matured people as well,how many couple who got married after loving each other for years but want to get divorced in few months or years once they get life bored with the partner,I think it happens at every corner of the world.

Then financial status of the partner,even if we say it is not true love more people tend to fall in love with an ugly guy if he is rich. ::)

love is to have affection of someone, you don't really care how she look, this time, physical appearance doesn't matter anymore. also you will feel unease if she is not around, in other words you are afraid to lose her. you only want to see her, every minute with her is like a treasure. what i'm saying here is, love for a woman.that love is what we always feel as a man when we were young.

At first it's pure chemistry. You can google the chemical reactions that go inside our bodies when we are in love. It's funny but people in love are like on mild drugs. I've been there and I still remember this feeling of pleasure and relaxation when I was with my partner. It's that pleasure you feel right after a good sex, when in love you're like that for days. If there was a pill simulating this feeling I'd probably try it out (for scientific purposes of course).

Love is a physical repulsion that is just so amazing and intriguing to people, that they just have to dive into it to find out what it's all about.

 :D

Not always completely physical but usually starts as a physical attraction.

This is our instincts. We are clever animals. I know there are certain things which separate us from the animals but we sometimes ignore these and just go with our instincts.

To fall in love with someone, you first need to know that person. To know him/her, you need to see or feel him/her in some way. Our eyes give us the first impression about somebody. Usually everything starts with our eyes. Then the other stuff comes...

I did also read about the chemical reactions happening in our brain when we are falling for someone so its something normal right,this thing also can be replaced and could be.Still why many goes heart broken and end up their life when their partner broke up with them.I just want to laugh at those people.

Is love is that much serious for anyone?

They say there are a lot of definitions on what the word love could really mean. For some reason, Love seems subjective, it's actual meaning often varies depending on a person's point of view/ life experience. For a mother, it could be the joy of giving birth, to a father it may be seeing his son follow in his footsteps, etc.

alot of people think love is about finding a spouse... its not
love is much mor simple.. it can be the non sexual thing. you know to love a family member. or to love th taste of chocolate

so love is not physical attraction. it doesnt even have to be someone that mentally inspires you.

but in most different categories of 'love' one thing remains
the desire to have someone/something to care for and keep for your and their benefit

that covers things like the love of a father to keep family safe. the love of a career to take care of ones lifestyle. the love of chocolate for the desire of the benefit of its taste

physical attraction does not apply. as i know people who are obese, rotton teeth, bad smell smoke breath.. but they love each other and been together for decades

I think attraction is quite complex. There is the common saying that 'opposites attract', which does have some scientific corroboration. A small study (https://www.bionews.org.uk/page_91094) (90 couples) found less genetic similarity between couple than between random strangers.

Yes,I did also met the couples who were black and white,obese and skinny and more exact opposite but still they got attracted and for that they would use world heart.But in reality heart has any job with love. ;D It is supposed to pump the blood to make us alive right?

Uugh?! Your family are beautiful. See? I love them more than you do. Why do you talk about them that way?

Lust is not the physical attraction!
Physical attraction is simply the recognition of beauty.

Opposite sides doesn't necessarily attract when it comes to relationships but I see a trend where people tend to find traits in their partners that they seem to lack or want. Physical attractions is the basis at which every relationship begins.

There is the question of why we are physically attracted to certain people (beyond those who are stereotypically good looking, symmetrical features, slim, etc.)
I suspect there is a genetic basis to why we like who we like, whether it's certain pheromones or whatever, I don't know, I'm not aware of any studies into it, just a suspicion.

Love is physical attraction, but it has got care with it. Lust is the one that has got only physical attraction. When you're with Lust over someone you'll never feel his/her feelings and care about them. All that required is the physical pleasure out of the body. With love the same happens, but there will be lot of sharing and care for each other.

I cannot say that I have felt the true love yet.
From my perspective love is unconditional for my family members and I would do anything for them without asking back something from them. Also, I try to create a better future from them. That's who I can explain love.

"Love" is a broad concept that don't even have a definition but I'm going to assume you are mostly thinking of romantic love since you mentioned attraction. IMHO it starts really as just that - attraction.

I don't believe in "love at first sight". All the other "love" has some sort of attachment or emotional investment to it - child to parent and vice versa, friendship, pets, etc. I don't see why romantic love should be any different.

Anyone saying they've found "the one" by just looking at them and haven't even spoken to has just been overcome with a desire to possess said person.

It's something that we develop over time I guess. When people spend a lot of time with you and you end up caring for them, I guess that's what love is. That's why I don't believe in love at first sight. Family, friends, spouse, these are people who you spend time with throughout your life. Love is something that is developed. For example, there are some cultures when two people are married by their parents at a young age, without them even knowing each other. Most of the time, because they're always together, they end up caring and falling in love. At tleast that's how I see it.

Exactly,this also get manipulated by movie and entertainment programme we are watching for years and years since our childhood so it makes us to believe this is the love and the whole world is running behind this philosophy.

We have to convert "love at first sight" into "lust at first sight".

for me personally love is a feeling that can not be forced by anything, not looking at the physical but something else like sacrifice and a strong commitment, to protect each other.

Then answer why most couple breakup who said that they were truly loves each other? So they didn't started loving yet or love can get bored after months or years?

I believe love is a combination of physical attraction and putting the lives and concerns of people you love over your own.

so when people break up. is the only reason 'sorry but you got hit with the ugly stick last night'

love is not about attraction of physical looks. its about wanting to care and protect and make other happy and get the same in return. and yes people can stop caring
its easier to stop caring than it is for the other person to suddenly become ugly. which is why breakups happen.. people stop caring.

Stop caring because they start to get bored with the "same stick again and again".

Isn't Hollyweird raunchy enough? That tag might not sell might though. Need to keep the divorce mill running. ;D

But yes, it's a modern concept. For much of history it's parents, sometimes with the help of matchmakers, that find a suitable partner for their children.

Even for those that don't go through this, there's a lengthy courtship. People didn't "fall in love", they "learn to love".

Love, In my definition, if you are attracted to someone or on your partner then you don't need to attract by someone else because by love, it define a loyalty and faithfulness which you need to be attracted to only one because by attracted to someone, it means that you are not contented to your partner and it is not love.  You are only scared to be lonely but it is not love.

So when you are in love the attraction is allowed to only one person? Yes love is meant to be loyal and faithful but getting attracted to someone is not real love,it should be mutual understanding and you will feel what is real love when you on it.

It doesn't mean you can't bang other girls,but you don't have to hide it from your partner.There are couple who like to swap their partners on bed.Sex is not the only thing related to love.

Not really.  Oil Paintings are beautiful yet very few people would be physically attracted to them.

People love their dogs without being physically attracted to them.

Many people are physically attracted to people they have never met or interacted with.

Physical attraction = Lust

Love is none of those things.

Love is profound In a way that it is not just a physical attraction but rather an emotional attachment to someone or something. The one who love is the one who persevered and patient. To love is to give or to do something for a person without expecting anything in return. For love is to care to give and to trust someone. It is unconditional affection that is limitless. Love is sacrifice and passionate.

Love doesn't really exist in the first place. We just happen to give it a word, a meaning--then several meanings, for us to "easily" understand (yet still remains a mystery, and would be different and the same at the same time for each person) and to identify that it indeed exists (after all, we felt it). Essentially, It's a manifestation of mixed "feelings" towards something or someone. It starts when you appreciate a thing or a person. Tho there are "levels", even "kinds" of love--we don't need to dive into that.

I would agree on what this person said:

You can only call it "love", once you experienced it--once you felt it, then understand and identify it.

Then explain me why breakup,cheating,chicks and all these things happening when someone fell in love!

Referring to the title, no, it’s not.

There’s a deeper meaning to the word love.

Love is the feeling you feel towards your family, partner, some friends, things you’re passionate about and other being you’re caring for.

If it’s just a physical attraction, it’s called lust and it has a shallow meaning compare to the word love.

I would say it's mostly attraction in the early stage - which is why people seem to not see any of their "beloved's" faults. Soon when that chemical rush in the brain subsides, you either are revolted of bothering with the person or by that time you have grown an attachment for him/her.

This is not to discuss about the love between family,friends or anyone just between the couple who says I fell in love with you at first sight and got the feel you are my future do you think love really works in this way?

Depends, man.

It could be that the one who said those words was a long time friend who sees you as more than a friend that you never know from a long time since you guys met.

If it was said by someone who you just met a minute ago, then it might be lust.

It's attractions that most of the time build the foundation of love, maybe there's some of it that see this as lust and it isn't work that way, but
that's also reality where people being attract in the first sight and build a good foundations of dreams togetherness.

 We can't remove the fact that it is happening, there's people who fell in love at first meetings and stay together till death.

If lust becomes the foundation of love then,lust becomes obsolete at some point so love also will extinct? Or they will love with the same attitude as before?

Only there are some but what happens with most,cheating or divorce.

Lust is superficial, love is deeper. You can have lust at first sight because that's mostly what lust is, first sight. But you can't love someone without knowing them - meaning romantic love rather than unconditional family love.
Love is deeper. And yes lust can survive as a part of a greater love. Doesn't always, but does plenty of times and I would imagine does in most successful marriages.

So between couples love is lust and lust is love,that is why they wanted to marry their partner.

It is not the same... Just, lust endures over the time and it doesn't fade.
This makes love survive forever.

Even if we have the world's most beautiful girl the things will change because everyone will get aged over time so it won't remain more longer.

Love is just only a emotion we express our feelings to the girl that would we like to live forever.
A physical reaction of it on when the two lover have getting married and make have some beautiful children.
Their are lots of kind physical reaction about love but I cant answer all of them on what are those.

Love is not only physical attraction, it is also support in difficult moments of life

I think this is more than a physical connection
quote
I breathe - and that means I love!
I love - and that means I live!

I can sympathize with the 2nd line in a rational and scientifical standpoint. Rational--being in love (disclaimer: there are types of love) means you're living your life. Scientifical--we just gave it a term called "love" because it's easy to comprehend, but we can literally explain why we feel that way (e.g. Attraction is driven by adrenaline, dopamine, and serotonin—the same chemicals that are released by exciting, novel experiences). But the 1st line seems to lack any connection at all. How can breathing be a result of love? Breathing makes you alive, i.e. being alive means you can breathe. But breathing doesn't guarantee that you're in love.

Yes,when someone gets married after they loved for years,have to share sorrow and happiness between them and help themselves to get comfortable live with them but this is actually not happening other than few drama and movies.People will leae you when you are no more beneficial to them,its bit harsh but that the reality of modern day love.

That's not really a marriage should be. The things you see in drama and movies are quite exaggerated, tho there is some resemblance to reality it doesn't really portray what's the actuality. And some people take it as the truth--they believe it's the truth. Which is wrong in many ways.

The last part you mentioned sounds more like a contract than a marriage.

Difficult to explain what is love, everyone have an own understanding what is love, but love is very inportant specially in the family I believe without there nothing happiness.




That true love is more than an physical connection is came from the heart beat.

What kind of love are you talking about? What do you mean? I understand love as something divine. This is a comprehensive feeling of love for everything that surrounds you. Including the love of a life partner. Therefore, even if we consider the love of another person, I can't say that this is just a physical attraction. This is deep respect, this is trust, this is the acceptance of the person for who he/she is. Although you need to understand that, first of all, the soul of a person is important, and if you like the soul, you will also like the physical shell.

Love is a feeling that is hard to explain. You'll just feel it towards someone you really care.

We might have different definition about love but what important is you know deep inside you the true meaning of this and no words can express it.

We have different views what love is all about. Love is not just all about physical attraction, it is our emotion we feel towards a person. True many kind of physical reaction in love. Despite many times, we failed how many instances we messed up a person that really loves you will accept no matter what.

if you are only attractive thru physical then there is nothing that it can be called love,because love is a heartfelt ,not by eyes and not by mind but by Heart.

maybe its infatuation or something related but surely it wasnt Love if for physical attractions.

It's hard to say, I have been with my girlfriend for 9 years, and only a couple of years ago we really started to appreciate what we have each other.

Soul,divine are good to hear but in actual what is happening,people get attracted each other and they call themselves they fell in love with each other deeply,madly,soulful,divine,blah blah but later things changes,cheating,affair,divorce....

Just because it had happened to some doesn't mean it's gonna happen to everyone.

Regardless of what happened after, I'm pretty sure the majority of it is genuine. It's true that they're in love--there's an attraction, a spark between them. But you see, relationships should come a long way--it needs effort and time. In some cases, it's hard to even begin a relationship, and in other cases, it's hard to maintain a healthy relationship.

Based on your statement, healthy romantic relationships from the beginning often turn into toxic, unhealthy relationships. That's probably because they don't provide as much time and effort for each other as they have from the beginning. That's also the reason why some relationships burn out because they thought that there's nothing more for them to do with/for each other. They tend to stop there and don't even try to fix things up. That's also the reason why they find other things to satisfy themselves, then comes cheating, affair, divorce as you mentioned. Though there are other reasons why, it is very complicated to include as there are so many ways why relationships turn out like that, sometimes it's not about cheating, affair, a divorce of the sorts.

My love for bitcoin can't be just a physical attraction since it's all happening on a virtual blockchain.

Just be honest,its happens with only few? It happens with 90% if relationships. Yes the things changes from beginning once they have been together for a while but whats the exact reason they got bored with the partner so they care less,cheat and others.

I am being honest. I don't know where you get the basis (data) of your scaling, but I think that's an exaggeration. Also, I don't know what you've been trough but don't compare your relationship to everyone else's. It's as if you're treating every relationship ever existed to be toxic. There are so many relationships out there that go a really long way. And as if you're telling me that their efforts and time are wasted.

Bruh, if this is what you believe stop there if you yourself experienced a toxic relationship, don't gospel it to everyone else like their relationships will turn out that way anyway.

I am not talking about basis on any stats,I will search for it if I can find any.

Maybe you got someone who truly loves you so you not aware of its happening but that's the reality people will leave you for reasons even if they loved you unconditionally.

Actually I don't. I'm pretty much alone, but happy.

I think you're not wrong, in a way. But even then, you're not talking about the "entire" reality here, that's only part of it--just a reality check. But people that will love you unconditionally and will stay with you for as long as they could (there's no eternity) are also a reality. And what I'm telling you this whole time is that it exists, and it's also true. And what you're eagerly trying to explain isn't always the case, if not, not at all.
