Randomly saw a video of some old lady saying love is when you can't breathe next to someone, you're suffocating from it. And one of my relatives 🤭🤣 thinks love is chemistry! There's nothing you can do about it, your brain just shuts off. Even at 65, with tears in your eyes, you can hysterically love some unavailable, cold old man who tells you straight up, 'We can't be together.' That's love! Talk about being unlucky🤪 Well, I've had my share of experiences too, of course, but lately, I'm leaning towards the idea that love is a choice, first of all. Then – respect and understanding, calmness, and of course, passion, care, support. All of it together. Anything less is some kind of ***, why do we need that) And suffering is something from the devil 😄 Speaking as someone who used to suffer 🤣 So I decided to ask you all... what is love to you?) P.S. I remembered that in school notebooks, they used to write 'love is a vase, and a vase is glass, and everything glass breaks easily'🤣 And then an old, good song popped into my head: 'Love is a ring, and a ring has no beginning and no end.'
I don't know why, but out of the blue, I suddenly remembered this 🤣🤣🤣 Does anyone remember how th…

Oh, I remember the vase thing too 🤣🤣 They used to write such things in diaries. And they'd wrap up secrets, opening them to say 'you're ruining it, now write who you love' 🤣🤣 As for me, love is a choice to be with that specific person.

For me, love is something good, pleasant, something you really enjoy. At 65, hysterically loving a 'cold grandpa' is senile foolishness to me, not love. Unrequited love, in principle, isn't love for me.

Chemistry and all that is more like infatuation. Love is caring, respect, you don't want to mess with someone just because you're not in the mood. Love is loving, not insulting, not humiliating, etc.

My husband and I have different views on love. He loves for a reason, but I'm just drawn to him.

Love is a chemical bond. After 2-3 years, the "chemistry" fades, and you start to see the person with a "sober" eye, noticing all their flaws, and then you wonder if you should accept it or if it's not the right fit for you. Notice how often couples break up after 2-3 years of a relationship or marriage. Your grandma says that because she hasn't lived with him, she doesn't know what he's really like, so she idealizes and fantasizes. I've never seen couples who have been together for even 5 years where the wife hysterically doted on her husband, or vice versa. The relationship reaches a whole different level then.

There's infatuation, there's passion – that's when you idealize someone. Then the first and second fade, and either everything fizzles out and you're left with someone who's essentially a stranger and annoying, or it develops into love. And that's not just sparks in bed, but also friendship, attachment, and a shared outlook and goals. Love comes with time; you can't fall in love at first sight because love is a feeling for someone you truly need to know and see in all circumstances. Love is a cultivated feeling that grows wider and wider over time. Everything else is infatuation and passion.

For me, love is comfort. Inner comfort, above all. When you just feel good around someone. You don't necessarily need to say or do anything, explain or ask for anything. Everything will be okay.

Love is a truly deep feeling that sometimes appears after falling in love, and sometimes develops over time. Love is when you know all of someone's flaws, but they don't bother you. And as the character Valery Meladze said in the good old "Songs About the Main Thing" – "Love isn't just like that. You have to work at love!"

Love is a soul connection, mutual understanding, and respect. Love is diverse and yet the same for everything. Passion, goosebumps, can't breathe – that's infatuation or obsession.
At least for me ❤️

Love is mutual respect, understanding, and support, but a relationship also needs that spark that warms each other. It's some kind of inexplicable feeling deep within your soul.
