What exactly is Love? I'm not talking strictly about love in an intimate relationship (marriage, dating, whatever) but about how people use love.

I'm just gonna throw this out there:

Love cannot be selfish. It cannot be mean, or self serving in any way, and yet one must love oneself in order to understand how to love other people. Love cannot be prideful, vengeful, or insulting, it cannot be jealous or covetous, nor can it be impatient.

To be truly loving one must put the object of one's love first, ahead of oneself, without seeking one's own good. This does not mean you cannot benefit from loving someone (or something), but simply that this cannot be the goal of love, or it is not love, but selfishness. In my experience selfishness clouds judgment.

Love must be self controlled. If love cannot control itself, what is to keep a "lover" from flying off the handle if they don't like something someone did or said? This would not be an act of malicious anger, but of a lack of self-control, yet I doubt anyone could claim it is loving to lose your temper.

Lastly, I don't think love can be contained by a relationship, or by friendship, or by hatred. If you can't love your enemy, can you really love? And if you love your enemy, are they still your enemy? Therefore, can you have an enemy if you can love perfectly?

Love has no "rights", because rights are selfish. Therefore, what is love? To love perfectly is to be perfect.



Those are just my thoughts.

baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me no more.

Well, that killed this thread...

lol no it didn't

it's funny.

anywho...

someone once said, "I don't know if I'm falling in love or going crazy!"

to which I answered, "There isn't a difference"

so take that for what you will.

Love, to me, in its purest form is Charity, Generosity, Forgiveness...essentially; wanting the very best for another, in all circumstances, at all times. If we are talking about Passion and Lust, they are different...connected often, but at least to me, something different to Love.

To me, love is being with a person with whom you can share your deepest, darkest feelings and secrets without fear of what they might think or say. They are the person you feel completely at ease with when you are naked and at your most vulnerable.

And this is without the influence of alcohol or drugs.

pfff. too slow!

is there a way I can change the title of this thread please? I wasn't thinking, I was high when I wrote it, and forgot that people have a hard time moving past such things while they are on the internet.

-_-

is it really that big of a deal?

you're not on the governemental forums of the national security control.. it's useless to despite people because they type things not as intelligent as you would want - as long as there is no harsh comment about other members like in the fuckin reality topic(even coming from the moderators) - it's all good to my eyes..

you need to wait and good answers will come. i'm personally not always feeling like to type a long ass post as i am french, i need to translate everything in my head it takes much more time than anyone else out here and my conectivity to internet is limited..

you also need to remember that on top of everything - it's a weed forum and many people comes on it after... smoking weed. you won't generate more answers related to your topic from people by saying ''i tought people were past these things on the internet'

you've already got 3 good answers from logic, animal and gore and didnt even related.

This is love

Fixed

Hahahaha

Thanks Mate, idk, I just thought since it was the deeper thoughts section I wouldn't get this stuff, but I think my real mood doesn't come through on the internet. I wasn't that upset about it, only slightly irritated and I was trying to respond in a lighthearted way (though looking back I'm not sure how I thought it would come across that way).

Peace and love?
