Contrary to popular belief, love isn't a feeling. Infatuation is a feeling, which is felt (if to a lesser degree) by three-year-olds and their sweethearts, high schoolers, middle-aged people, and senior citizens alike. Love, in my opinion, is a way of living one's life to better another's. If a person is truly in love, he will give freely of himself to make the other person, in whatever way, happier. It's making one's life so that EVERY ASPECT of that life is, in whatever way, working for the good of the other's. Total, total dedication. It's also allowing that person to give back those same actions selflessly. Love, when done correctly, doesn't directly benefit the person doing the loving; it's the reciprocation of love that makes everything worthwhile.
There are no good examples; to get a good idea of love, one must experience it. There is no other way.

Get the lovemug. One of the most unexplainable aspects of a human's life that God has ever put into existence. This thing is so hard to sum up without writting paragraphs upon paragraphs. This word is misconstrued and thrown around by people on a daily basis-it's pretty sad at times. If you love someone, you care. Romantically, or not, when you love, you will not let something stupid or insignificant get between you and that person. When you love someone, you're mature, patient, and understanding. If you aren't positive you love someone, please do humanity a favor and don't say it. If you would tell this person that you love them, and could leave them one month later over practically nothing, would cheat on them, or would do pretty much anything unnecessary that you know will hurt them, DO NOT TELL THEM YOU LOVE THEM. This word is so serious, and there are too many people that'll go say it with a huge amount of immaturity. Love is literally the best feeling in the world, but at the same time, love can cause some of the worst feelings in the world.
Example 1:
So she told me she loved me, and I found the courage to finally tell her that I honestly loved her too about a week afterward, but she dumped me about 4-5 weeks after she first said it. She hurt me like I had never been hurt before. She obviously didn't love me, but the thing is, I really did love her, so even though I feel absolutely lied to, am experiencing emotions worse than I've ever felt in my life, and have been living with a fake relationship, I can't bring myself to hate her or say a single negative thing to anyone regarding her.
Example 2:
Sue: John, we've been dating four days! I love you.
John: ...

Get the lovemug. An intense and passionate feeling, typically shared by two beings of the opposite sex, sometimes the same. You have hot romantic sex after a date, usually a movie or candlelit dinner or picnic by a lake or at a park. They fight only because they are possessive over each other and very protective. You don't care about the gifts or looks. To him she is a princess and to her he is her prince. He "shows her off" even on her worst hair day because she is his pride and joy and they do not judge each other, even on their darkest hour. They can lay in bed completely naked and have any opportunity to be sexual but the choose to lay and cuddle till they fall asleep. You trust your partner enough to fall asleep in each others arms. When one or the other is sick you take care of each other. They might fight or scream but at the end of the day when they lay in bed, they know that what they feel is true and they are going to hold onto it.
Mikayla: "Did you see Jarell and Holly walking down the hall being all lovey and cute?"
Josie: "Yeah, I'm so jealous of the love the share!!! They will never split up."

Jillian: "Jarell really doesn't love me, he love's that hoe, Holly."
Ayla: "Tell me about it, he dated us at the same time for two weeks, turns out it was really not love, just lust."

Get the Lovemug. For example if you love an item you will use it until you hate it or something like that.. , Love is a short four letter word with lots of meaning, if you love a human animal something living.. You’ll take care of it right? Love with humans.. Well.. Love for humans is always being there for them, helping them out, being there for them, showing them.. Why you love them, money isn’t the best thing. If they’re in it for the money.. Look at animals, they don’t want your money.. They don’t want anyone’s money. They want to be respected and loved. When you love someone or something you take care of it, for example a flower.. , if you love it you will give it water.. Put it in the sun, give it the love it needs to live. Let’s say you were or someone else was that flower.. Would you be there for it? Or just let it die?.. Love is being there for it when it needs you the most.
I love you *person*
Man! I love these crackers!
I love that movie!
Let’s go water the plants, why not give it some love?

Get the lovemug. Love is the warm feeling you having for somebody and keeps you on your toes when going through crap. Love isn't hate it is just some people don't handle it well.
Cry a river, build a bridge and get over it because falling in love isn't the worst thing that happened to you. You did say it was the best thing ever.
