Best Answer - Chosen by Asker:
Yes it is a indescribable feeling, no words can do it justice!.

You know it when it happens, but you can't really see the shape of it, it is not physical, but spiritual change!.

When you feel happy for the person, cause he/ she is happy
When he/she is sad, you are sad for them and with them!.
You feel totally alone even in a crowd without them!.
You could go to any length to make them happy

These are spiritual changes!.

Physical changes are when you are glowing with happiness cause there is some one special for you, and loves you as much!.

When love ends, you feel dead yourself, you don't eat, you weep or are angry etc!. these are the physical changes!.

All are symptoms, yet the disease has no form that is visible!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Wow, that's a big question!. Love is an emotion!. A very strong emotion!. To describe it impersonally, I think I'd have to say you know you love someone when you would be willing to put yourself in harms way in order to prevent harm to the other person; when someone can do the unthinkable, and you are able to forgive them; when you yearn to be by thier side, and are willing to commit yourself to a partnership!.

You could take all of those things individually and apply them to anyone, but you couldn't take them all together and apply them to a person without creating an emotion!.!.!.!. Love!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

Love is a buzzword, thus everyone's definition of "love" will be different because not everyone experiences, feels, or gives the same level of love!. The ancient greek philosophers knew that there were different types of love!. In fact, the prefix "philia" meant "the love between brothers (or friends)"!. There are too many levels of love to experience!. And throughout time, along with your different experiences of whom you date and befriend, you will come up with your very own definition of what "love" is!.Www@QuestionHome@Com

From the Bible: 11 Corinthians 13 NIV
4Love is patient, love is kind!. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud!. 5It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs!. 6Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth!. 7It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres!.

8Love never fails!. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will pass away!. 9For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears!. 11When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child!. When I became a man, I put childish ways behind me!. 12Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face!. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known!.

13And now these three remain: faith, hope and love!. But the greatest of these is love!.

Lust is: what can I get out of it!?
Love is: what can I do for you!?

Love is kind!. Love is patient!. Love does not boast or envy!. Love does not remember past wrongs!. Love puts up with anything!. Love endures!.

Lust: the first few months!.
Infatuation: three to seven months!.
Affection: Long lasting!.

Never ever make a life changing decision in a temporary state of mind!. There's a lot of lust masquerading as love out there!. Be careful!. When you ask yourself what it is that you love about her, are they superficial things!?

Sex messes up your thinking!. The way to see how a person will treat you in the long run is to watch how they treat their own families!. In the long run you will be family if you marry!. Pay attention, save yourself some heartache!.

Marriage is a promise to love!. It is not an emotion!. It steps away from the easy way and says I KNOW things will get bad!.!.!. you'll get sick, or we'll go through hard times, but I love you enough to stick it out with you for the long run!. Oath is thicker than blood!.

One more thing!. Jesus never taught about 'self' love!. Because self love is evident!. If you are hungry you feed yourself!. If you're thirsty you get yourself a drink!. He always taught about how to love others!.

Wherever you put your treasure, there your heart will be also!.!.!.!.!.!.Www@QuestionHome@Com
