What is love?

My friend Kyle just posted this question and as tempted as I was to write "Baby, don't hurt me" I will write seriously about it. It is hard to describe love as it is different for everyone. It is one of those things where if you have experienced it, you understand it completely but if you've never experienced it, you will never understand. I will try to explain my best though. For me, love is when you let your heart make the decisions and you aren't upset by it.
        You actually enjoy it because it is one of the best experiences you will ever feel. Love is when you would give up everything for that one person because you can't give them up and nothing else compares to them. Love can make you feel the best you ever have and also the worst. It can be a cruel temptress but it can also be your best friend. It is the one thing religious and non-religious people can agree on. In the bible, it says it is the most important thing in the world but non-religious people can think that as well.
          Love is something that binds but its not a bad thing, you choose to let it happen. Some people are afraid of love but it isn't anything to fear once you feel it. Because once you feel it, you now know why it is out there and why people try so hard for it. You will try your hardest for love because that one person is the one thing that is always worth your best effort.
          That effort isn't attainable without love because love changes you for the better and even if you lose love, you still know it was good for you because of how you felt when you were in love.It isn't easy to understand because everyone is different and everyone's emotions are different but that is what I think love is. If someone likes this advice and wants a question answered, just comment below.

  1. Ok, so here is the deal, tell me what you honestly think I should do. I am putting your advice giving skills to the test. So throughout all high school I was obsessivly in love with a friend of mine, I went over and spent time with her, and been a friend, but I would always do something stupid like push myself on her more or whatever. I went to the point of where I actually wrote a letter to her admitting how I felt about her and everything at the time. Well after a while I decided that it would be the best for both me and her, if I just started dating other people and everything. Well now we are in college, we became pretty good friends, and now that I am single again for a while, those feelings have started coming back and I am scared and not sure what to do. I want to be her friend and her not to think bad of me because of this, but yet I know that my feelings will never change and so I don't know what I should do.
