1. A human emotion caused by a chemical imbalance of serotonin in the brain. This imbalance is comparable to that of a patient with OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder). The obsessive focus one gives to another, is attributed to this chemical state, though unlike most cases of OCD, this imbalance tends to correct itself over time. However, when serotonin levels return to a normal state, said love does not necessarily fall apart. Love can reach, from a scientific standpoint, a second chemical state, moving away from the more common dopamine-drenched romantic state to a calmer, Oxytocin-induced state. Oxytocin is a hormone that promotes feelings of connection, bonding and attachment, and would generally be released if you were to hug a spouse, child, or family member. Scientific studies found that Prairie voles, which have high levels of Oxytocin, mate for life. When scientists blocked Oxytocin receptors in these voles they didn't form monogamous bonds and tended, instead, to roam. It is just this feeling, this hormone, that often attributes to a successful, long term love. It is generally just this kind of love most people spend their lives searching for.

To be truly in love- To be in your true and higher self. To forget self and seek the best for another.
Usually we are inspired to be "in love" by another person or righteous cause.
True love does not cause bad behavior. A need for control could be confused for love, and bad behavior is then justified as love. This is the opposite of love.

Love is a funny thing.
You expect it to be easy. You expect it to be a world of roses and laughs and perfect moments that you find only
in movies.
You expect her to
always say the right thing, and
always know exactly how you feel,
or exactly how to react to it.
You expect her to calm you down when you're yelling or to chase you
when you run away.
You expect so much that you feel entirely, and utterly defeated when something doesn't exactly match up to all your plans. But that's the thing.
Love isn't a plan. It doesn't have
a certain beginning and it
certainly has no end, or a visible
finish line to those deeply in it.
Love happens; it is so
incredibly messy. People around
you can't comprehend why you do
the things you do, or why you
fight so hard for something that
seems to cause you so much pain.
Because simply, they can't see.
They can't see the invisible ring
of insanity that surrounds you
when you're in love. It's
inconvenient and painful and
devastating at times, but we can't
live without it.
What you don't learn is how hard love is. How much work it takes. How much of ourselves we have to put into it.
How it isn't worth it until we are
complete and utter idiots about it.
Love isn't her calming you
down when you yell. It's her
yelling, just as loud, just as
hard, right back at you, right in
your face to wake you up and to
keep you grounded.

I love you, more then Aladdin loves Jasmine. I love you, more then Noah loves Allie. I love you, more then Romeo loves Juliet. I love you.

Love is a complicated thing; It can start out as lusting after appearance or infatuation or adoration, yet can evolve into real love if two people continue to make the effort to make progress in getting to understand each other.
Love is a feeling that eats away at us if we don't have healthy self-esteem and the one we love isn't honest with us or with themselves.

Infatuation is like having a crush and ignoring the person's flaws and acting dreamy
Lust is where you mainly go after a person for their body
Love is where you accept a person for who they are, regardless of flaws, personality, or interests

(Adj.) Literally, it means 'full of love.' The opposite of this is clearly 'hateful.' To better understand the term you must not be a hateful hatemonger like SOME people. (::points around the room::) huh!? Huh!? Yeah! That's right. ...'Loveful' was coined between Massachusetts and Rhode Island during a mid-day phone call.
me: You are so loveful. I wish I could be as naturally loveful as you.
mj: Seriously, you hateful bastard. Here's to not being a winner every day! ...hateful!
