How would you explain love, like what do you feel, you cannot use the word love to describe it.

"I feel love is when you'd do anything for that person" etc.

Discuss.

I belive that's making love, and not love itself. I assume you were trying to be funny in which case it wasn't very funny.

me & my girlfraaan :D

but seriously, depends on who you are. for some people love is the feeling of complete trust and connection with someone. for others its how much someone is willing to buy you.
