Here's one for people to muse on; what is love?
Is love the rush of passion that happens during the early part of romance.
Or is it being friends, trusting some one with your heart, forgiving them for the little things they do that annoy you and the big ones too, being there when every thing is going wrong and reasuring them it will be alright. Sharing the highs and lows that go withevery relationship, excepting that you can't agree on every thing even when your right ( for the ladies ).
please add your thoughts and comments

Love is giving someone the chance to destroy you and trusting them not to.

It can be the first heady passion of romance that deepens into something longer lasting.

Or it can be a friendship that slowly over time builds into something more.

Caring enough about someone to let them go and live their life and just be there for them if they need you.

Real Love is unconditional and probably best observed in its purest form, outside of, romantic expectation !.

i think its wrong to try to over analyse - its like a piece of music that moves you, or why your bike does it for you - its just a visceral feeling - it just IS!!!! que sera sera (and no, i havent got a thing for doris day!) x

Too right Clarkee. There are many levels of love. I love my friends I love my family But when I am IN love with a partner......now thats a very different level of love.

Just been rummaging upstairs, for a little book which contains this,

Love gives naught but itself and
takes naught but from itself.
Love possesses not nor would it be possessed;
For love is sufficient unto love
KHALIL GIBRAN.

Personally, I like that

That's what I am trying to say............ There are different levels of love, there has to be You can't possibly love your parents, family, children, friends or partner all on the same level

Great one BobbyF I like that, some interesting replys to my post.
Lovefor ones child of course differs from the love for ones partner and for that matter parents sibblings etc. When I started this thread I was talking about the love between two people of whatever sexuality.
Clarkee great bit of poetry I know what he means.
