What They Think Love Is.

REASON #1: I live for..... My future. I choose to live for my future.

It is something I always dream about, although I am a past-dweller. But even though I go through tough spots, I choose to stay here because of promises of the future. I want to be a forensic scientist, so I hope I can help catch those 'bad guys' and help the world <3

What does Urban Dictionary have to say about LOVE?

One post says...:

Love is an incredibly powerful word. When you're in love, you always want to be together, and when you're not, you're thinking about being together because you need that person and without them your life is incomplete. 

This love is unconditional affection with no limits or conditions: completely loving someone. It's when you trust the other with your life and when you would do anything for each other. When you love someone you want nothing more than for them to be truly happy no matter what it takes because that's how much you care about them and because their needs come before your own. You hide nothing of yourself and can tell the other anything because you know they accept you just the way you are and vice versa. 
It's when they're the last thing you think about before you go to sleep and when they're the first thing you think of when you wake up, the feeling that warms your heart and leaves you overcome by a feeling of serenity. Love involves wanting to show your affection and/or devotion to each other. It's the smile on your face you get when you're thinking about them and miss them. 
Love can make you do anything and sacrifice for what will be better in the end. Love is intense,and passionate. Everything seems brighter, happier and more wonderful when you're in love. If you find it, don't let it go.

ANYWAY, for me love is...: (be warned....I'm not as good, detailed, descriptive writer as whoever wrote the Urban Dictionary entry...)

LOVE is finding someone you can completely be yourself with.

LOVE is finding someone who will make you happy just by talking to you.

LOVE is finding someone who makes you feel pretty, even on your worst days.

LOVE is finding someone who would never lie to you.

LOVE is finding someone who understands you.

LOVE is finding someone you can barely be away from.

LOVE is finding your soul-mate.

Personally, sure, I've told people I love them, but I completely misuse the word, as do most teenagers/people in general. And honestly, lately for me I've been getting to the point where I dont say "I love you" or even "love you" to anyone really. Sure, my friends will say it to me, but lately it just makes me uncomfortable...I'm not exactly sure why. 

I've told 4 boys that I love them, but I've only said "in love" to two of them. One of them is my most recent ex-boyfriend, from back in Augest/September. I didn't 'get over him' for about 6 months, and convinced myself I was 'in love with him'. I know I wasn't.

The other one, is one of my friends boyfriends. Awful, right? Especially since I told him only like a week after they broke up the first time. I also told her the day after they broke up....stupid me, right? Fortunately, we are still friends, her and I. I am also still friends with him (I'd still like to consider him my best male friend, although it's a little awkward). Sure...telling him made things a bit awkward, and I cant be around him and her anymore, or prefer not to anyway. 

Truth be told, sure, I'd still like to try my chances with him, being as I wont see him after this year, but whatever. I'm not in love with him, and I know that now. I wasn't in love with my ex either.

So, my Question of This Post.... ;)....

WHAT IS LOVE TO YOU?

P.S. Remember, I'd write LOVE on your arms anyday <3
