What *is* love?

I don't think love is a feeling but rather a concept. The feeling of "Loving someone" is confusing to me, and I can't describe nor do I know what it really means Sure the butterflies in your stomach may make you believe that you love someone but that feeling typically dies off and Sometimes resurges. That just means you like someone, not love It annoys me how fast couples say "I love you" in a relationship. How? You've known this person for what, like 2 months? Will you still be by their side if they say or do something that hurts you? I feel like you have to go through shit with someone to say "I love you". Even in non-romantic ways. No offense to people who have done this though, I just want to spark discussion So I guess my question is, "What is Love? What does a loving relationship look like? What is the difference between a romantic and platonic love? Should there be a difference?"

    Love is commitment, plain and simple. True love is unconditional commitment. A choice, regardless of subjective feeling or circumstance. This is what the foundation of all types of love is based upon. Platonic, romantic, parental, friendly, familial, etc. I think you’re Christian, if I remember right. God/Christ demonstrates this at its peak throughout the Bible. Serving others, being willing to get down onto someone’s level to serve them, laying your life down for others. Edit: I’d like to add what Xronad mentioned: self-sacrifice. You can be committed to someone, but that degree of commitment could be shallow or deep. Self-sacrifice is self-sacrifice... I don’t think you can really half-ass that. Couple that with enduring commitment and you’ve got a pretty accurate definition of what love is. Commitment that is self-sacrificing. But, also! To love is to know. You cannot love someone unless you know them. You can be infatuated with their appearance, their existence, what you know of them, with your idea of your persona of them, maybe things that they’ve done for you, but you don’t love them until you know them. So love is self-sacrificing commitment to someone that you take the time to know them, the good and the bad and contribute towards their good.
