What does it mean to love someone?
In other words, when do you know it is the right time to tell that significant other that you love them?
I’m currently dating someone and we’ve decided that neither of us will say we love the other until we can’t wait to say it and we truly, deeply mean it.
Please give me some personal insights about your definition of love or ideas/events that would describe true love.
Thanks

When they’re the first thing you think of when you wake up, when you miss them when they’re not next to you, and whenever you think of them it makes you smile.
love to me is like a rollercoaster. it has it’s ups n downs .. love’s like a positive surge of emotion. like adrenalin but different. adrenalin comes n goes .. but love stays. it’s so powerful. n it like draws you in n ****. makes you happy to be alive. keeps you motivated day by day. love’s one of the biggest words misused and misrepresented. it’s often mistaken with lust. love’s appreciating someone else’s differences but ACCEPTING who they are as a person and RESPECTING the fact that you alone can’t change them. love is looking past the negatives and focusing on the positives. love is being devoted, and dedicated. love is never ending. and no matter what ppl say it’s often something that’s never lost or forgotten. it comes with time, n grows n flourishes into something beautiful.
when you’re happy just being around them, having their company, just knowing that they’re listening to you and actively helping/guiding you in your life. when you don’t want days or nights to end when you’re talking with them.
that’s how you know.
Haha, thanks guys. Just trying to make sure how I feel is true. The more insight I have, the easier I’ll be able to figure things out for myself.
Well i think that love can be found, but it is complicated. We need to move around this world and meet new people, rather than just date some person in your town that you think is cute, than become bf/gf than just leaving them. We can “love” someone but really there are millions of people that we can “love.” I prefer to hold off on that, i don’t care whether i find someone or not. Love isn’t “loving” someone than having children and dying together. Love is a real thing that few people have come to find.

Love has no one meaning. To me, I love a girl who loves me. The most important thing to me is trust!
think: Can you trust her in everything? Do you feel with her like you are married to her for a long time? When you look at her face, do you see a stranger or near lovely one? Can she help like a mother helping her baby?
For me its when the needs of the one I love comes before mine whatever the situation…
When I found myself putting his needs ahead of my own and discovered that he was doing the same for me, I knew it was true love. I can’t even remember who said it first, probably because I judge the depth of love by actions, not words.
I feel that being truly in love is when you can’t think about being with anyone else but that person, when you think about your future you always map it around that person and include them, when you have that one serious fight where you feel you have just had it and you go to walk away but something tells you to go back. Being in love to me isn’t always looking at the positives to know for sure.
i love the way kathrykurs described it :)
love is expensive can’t be buyed and can’t be saol… but i n my opinion i would like to say that tru love requires respect…

Awe thanks =]
A lot of people’s descriptions can also go with being really in like with someone so that’s why people tend to get confused whether they like or actually love someone.
