Love... Theories? Comments?

[gullible_soul]

Does anyone have any general theories about love? Any comments about it? Do you have a story to tell? Some quotes to share?

 

Share here!

 

I have a few, too.

 

*Love is like pi-- natural, irrational, and very important.

*Why is it that when you miss somebody so much that your heart is ready to disintegrate, you always hear the saddest song ever on the radio?

Sometimes i think love is something constructed by the card companies like John Sands!

 

Sometimes i think love is a socially constructed concept that helps us deal with sex better. It is part of human nature to physically bond in terms of affection, but i have often pondered... what is this thing called love?

 

To me, love is an energy that exists in many forms. For example, it is possible to love nature, to love a flower, to love an animal, and just to "love" altogether, but applying it to a romantic relationship sometimes gets confusing to me. I think it is confused with sex sometimes, and i think it is sometimes confused with wanting to be accepted, or to be intimate with somebody. Love, in a romantic relationship is the highest form of praise and it is something that lifts us above the ordinary to soar like an eagle.

How corny, but that's how i feel

[DN]

The most wonderful of all things in life, I believe, is the discovery of another human being with whom one's relationship has a glowing depth, beauty, and joy as the years increase. This inner progressiveness of love between two human beings is a most marvelous thing, it cannot be found by looking for it or by passionately wishing for it. It is a sort of Divine accident.
