What does love really feel like?❤️

I mean really feels like. That can be with relationships, friends, or family. Mostly relationships, cause I have given up on my family. What's it really like for someone to actually care?

I'm starting to wonder that myself. Romantically. ??

I gained 30 pounds and @rockyroadicecream still loves me. That's legit love.

I love Florence and that's my favorite song. The Foreigner video lol. The older I've gotten and the more dates I've gone on, more involve myself with more people, I'm starting to realize all those times I thought i loved, turns out it's always been one-sided. Cause when I love, I love too hard.

I prefer Berlin.

I think it depends on what stage of love you're in.

That unexplained feeling in the heart really happens!

Love is when you're willing to surrender and unconditionally sacrifice for the other person and vice versa.

Yet, despite all those sacrifices and humility, one's ego doesn't feel hurt. In fact, it is empowered in the form of fulfillment by making the person you love happy.

Love is all consuming

When it's good, it can make you the happiest you have ever been.

When it's bad, it brings you to your knees like a punch it the gut.

My grandparents were married 67 years. When she died in March he was devastated. He died 100 days later. They were like cats and dogs, but they really loved each other.

I am not sure....i guess caring and treating the other person like yourself ?

Wow! Thanks for all the replies. I'm usually always the one giving love. Waiting to nurture and help them be better. Only for them to leave and hurt me in the process. I'm a very giving person. I give more of myself then I receive. Which is why I'm growing really impatient with love, cause I don't have much more to give.

I thought in the past that I had found it. But it was young love. Very immature.

Now I would say:

Love is not listening to reply, but to truly listen. Recognizing what is needed and being there for that person. It's not about what you did or they did, it's not keeping score, but doing things because you love that person. Allowing the other person to understand what you need as well. Removing any walls built and letting that person in. (Because we all have them, whether they stem from family, past relationships, or our own insecurities.)

To live life together. That includes laughter, adventure, but more than anything forgiveness. Because no one will ever be perfect. They will never do exactly what you want them to. It's what makes us human. But if you are able to truly forgive that person and they are able to truly forgive you, then life with them will always feel like home. It will show that you love/accept them for who they are, including their flaws. (And vice-versa).

In real love, it's the little things every day that matter, not the big grand gestures of love.

Sacrifices are made, but they are not overwhelming. They are every day little moments where you make the decision to do what is best for your life together.
