Love? Interesting facts about love?

Love is the emotion of strong affection and personal attachment.[1] In philosophical context, love is a virtue representing all of human kindnesscompassion, andaffection. In some religious contexts, love is not just a virtue, but the basis for all being, as in the Roman Catholic phrase, "God is love"[2]. Love may also be described as actions towards others (or oneself) based on compassion.[3] Or as actions towards others based on affection.[4]
The word love can refer to a variety of different feelings, states, and attitudes, ranging from generic pleasure ("I loved that meal") to intense interpersonal attraction ("I love my partner"). "Love" can also refer specifically to the passionate desire and intimacy of romantic love, to the sexual love of eros (cf. Greek words for love), to the emotional closeness of familial love, or to the platonic love that defines friendship,[5] to the profound oneness or devotion of religious love[6] This diversity of uses and meanings, combined with the complexity of the feelings involved, makes love unusually difficult to consistently define, even compared to other emotional states.
Love in its various forms acts as a major facilitator of interpersonal relationships and, owing to its central psychological importance, is one of the most common themes in the creative arts.

I didn't finish reading the texts above... ^^"
But, what I know is, love, is the basic thing in human's life.... Love for family, pets, sympathetic, etc. And the most important, love for God and religion....

But, now, what can I see is, love between persons... I don't mind if a man love a woman and wish to marry her (adolescence)... But I felt weird when a teens can fall in love and couple... Without thinking that one of them will ask for breakup soon.... As long as I live, I never see a couple love from secondary school, until gets marry.... Aarghhh... =="

It's okay... I got to go.... Maybe I'm going to continue my post later... Continue my business...! So long! :D
