THE WORD LOVE

how do you describe being in love? and to love? (boyfriend/girlfriend/husband/wife)

well I define being in love with someone as infactuation,lust, only last for a certain time. being in love just means you can fall out of love. When you can favor many things about them but the actions you don't favor pushes you to that breaking point.when you can just give up on your relationship easily. My definition of To Love, is when even through the crap,certain actions you can't stand about them, you appreciate the good in that person more. if they cheated and you forgave them and worked through it.(vice versa)I feel when you love someone even if the two of you do not work out, you still genuinely love that person and if they called you because they were going through a crisis/or in the hospital you would be there because you have a deep sense of respect,and care for that person you love that person. when you can't let go of your relationship so easily. when you can acknowledge what you once had without feeling any regret or resentment. a lot of people like being in love, because to love someone takes a lot of energy and time. I'm only 22 and I've been a relationship for 3yrs now and I've grown to love the man I'm with because through the arguements/disagreements the yelling/ screaming crazy drama bullshit I still very much appreciate the man that he is and all the positive in him. young adults now a days don't want to love, but rather be in love because its not permanent they want to be in a relationship for the winter and single for the summer. I don't have anything against that but with the amount of diseases, flying around from people wanting live like a rockstar its just not my cup of tea but that's another blog post I will get into.lol
