Can you define love? The definition of love is vague and yet, so simple. All of us fall in love, but how many of us understand the true meaning of love? Rick Casalos wears his heart on his sleeve and talks about love, and why he wakes up every morning.
The meaning of love can't really be explained, it has to be experienced.
The definition of love may be two sentences long, but what is love really, and how does it work?
And how does it make you feel?
The meaning of love
Love… I wonder what it really means.
Is it the feeling that makes me want to jump out with joy?
Or is it that touch that makes me want to skip across the clouds?
I wonder if it is love when I feel happy to see her face, or is it love when I embrace her passionately?
It's strange but words seem to welcome poverty when we try to find the meaning of love.
I don't know if I'm in love, I ask myself all the time if I'm in love.
Defining emotions – The definition of love
I really don't know the definition of love because no one has ever showed me what love really is. They say it is felt, when I embrace my lover, when I hold her palms. They say it is to be heard, in the rustle of the leaves, in the cool breeze, in the words of the special person in my life.
They say love is to be seen in the beauty of the world, in the depth of my lover's eyes.
Or as some say, is love is to be tasted, like the sweet candy that melts in my mouth, or the way I melt when my lips meet her lips?
I don't know what the definition of love is, but does love mean sacrifices and pain? Or is it love when I kill myself for her love? If that is true love, then perhaps, I'm not in love at all. I have never felt like I have sacrificed anything for her, I have readily given up anything that I could give up to make her happy.
So what then, is the meaning of love?
I have never felt pain when she fought with me, I have understood her better. And I would never kill myself, why would I want to leave such a beautiful place, and a beautiful person like her, just to prove that I love her? So am I in love with her, I don't know.
What is love then?
Perhaps I still don't know what love is, because no one has ever told me what love is. I've only read about it in books and listened to songs that try to explain the meaning of love.
I've heard songs that say love is like a river, some songs that say love is like an undying flame, and yet others that say love is like a warm breeze. How can love be so many different things and yet be the same?
But I do know that my world stops when I'm with her. I burn inside and warmth fills within me as she clasps my hand in hers. I lose sight of the world when I gaze into her eyes. I don't know what it is that makes me weak when she hugs me. She makes me feel special when she's around me. But I did tell her that I loved her, but I've been thinking about that ever since the day I told her that, is it love really, what I feel for her?
Meeting the love of my life
I met Nadia six years ago, in the strangest of places for first meetings. Soon we were friends. We dated for a year before she accepted my 'love' for her. The memory of that special night lingers in my mind like it was just last night. We were sitting down under the stars in the summer heat, and I was just gazing at her beauty in the cool moonlight.
I was a small boy peeping through the glass window and admiring the most beautiful object I could ever wish for. She sat beside me, counting the stars that enveloped us. I sat beside her, counting the skips in my heartbeat. Her tresses played on her cheeks, and I was wrapped in the tranquil feeling that I always felt around her.
Experiencing the meaning of love
I could never explain it, but I knew the closest word that could explain what I felt for her was… love.
But 'love' was too small a word to explain everything I felt for her. The meaning of love was just too simple. I just couldn't find it justifiable to explain so many intangible feelings in a little four letter word. But I did, and on that night, the sun shone in my heart and the bliss of the first kiss we shared felt like a never ending fairy tale.
It was a feeling that I still can't describe. I wondered if that was how love felt, like a beautiful sight that just can't be explained even in a million words, but I knew it was special. Many years have passed since the day I professed my feelings for her, but I can still remember it like it was last night.
Understanding the real meaning of love through another's eyes
A few days ago, I met an old friend of mine. He's treading his late 80's and is a jolly man who's always helped me understand the things I've found hard to understand. His wife had passed away a long time back, and at some point of our conversation I asked him how things were since his wife died. He joked that making love to her wasn't the same anymore! He was only kidding! (I hope)
But then when I asked him what the real meaning of love was, he looked at me seriously. But his mind seemed to be elsewhere, somewhere far away, where he could still feel the emotion that seemed to have been extinguished from his life, and he told me something that I could never forget.
He told me, "Rick, you know you're in love when you have a reason to come back home, a reason to justify your existence. You'll know you're in love when you can't imagine living without this one person and you'll do anything to have her by your side. You cannot see love, you cannot feel love, but you can feel a bond when you're around this one person, and you just cannot explain it but it makes you feel special and taken care of. Love, my friend, is what makes you want to wake up tomorrow."
That was nothing like the definition of love, but yet, it made more sense than anything else that defined love.
I felt sad for him, but what he said made me understand what love means. I could only imagine how miserable he felt inside his jovial and happy exterior. So was that love? I think it was, and I wondered if I felt the same way. I wondered if I felt like waking up every morning to a brand new day just because I had love in my life.
Your own unique definition of love
Love is a very subjective word, unlike any other word in the world. I think it's something like our fingerprints. No one can understand what another person's definition of love is, nor can anyone ever replicate another person's love.
Perhaps love is just a word we use when we have to define a feeling that just can't be described, a feeling that no one else can understand but you.
I found myself contemplating about love, and what I felt. I heard a lot of scientific bollocks saying that love is a neural blah and some more blah… and another thousand pages of more scientific blah! But then, I really think that love is something that is more than just science, it's a reason that makes us believe that there is something beyond our control.
Love is a religion that you really begin to believe in. Love is something that just can't be explained in a thousand journals, but it can bring tears of joy in your eyes when you read a letter of a hundred words from your lover. Strange, isn't it?
Me and my love
I've written a few letters over these years, but I have to accept that I haven't written many to her in the last few years. Actually, I haven't written any to her in the last couple of years… is it because I love her less? I don't think so.
I know I still feel warm when I look at her, and I still like staring at her, as she sits down and laughs watching reruns of 'Friends'. I adore the way she sings while she takes a lazy shower on a sunny afternoon. I still can't take my eyes off her as she dances while listening to her favorite tunes.
But I still haven't written her a note saying that I love her, in the last few years. Maybe this is another strange thing about love. Maybe things are just taken for granted and we just feel like we don't need to remind our better halves that we love them, anymore.
The memories that define my love
I still remember our first vacation together. It was to a place a few hundred miles away from home. I was excited and so was she. We were like two little sparrows, indulging in the delight of isolation and romantic togetherness.
I was just a boy and she was just a girl. I remember how good it felt. Six magical days, I still remember the way we just sat on a lawn on the last afternoon, and played with the little flowers that grew on the ground beneath us.
I remember the days when she was away, and I missed her. I remember when I sat down by myself in a pub and emptied my pitcher of beer all by myself. I saw other couples around me, I missed her more. I guessed that was love, what else could that be? I longed for her to come back. I remember the way her voice made my heart jump, and even though she was a thousand miles away, she still touched my heart.
I have shared so many memories with her, so many special times and a few times which hurt me a lot.
But we've moved ahead, and we've been there for each other. She knows I still love her just as much as I used to, but I wish I could let her know that all over again. Love is felt best when we try to please our partner, isn't it? I can only promise her that the love I have for her will always be.
I can only promise her that I will love her forever and ever, as long as I can still see her, and hear her… in my heart.
Forgetting the meaning of love as the years pass by
Time can play tricks on memories, I have forgotten to close my eyes when I kiss her, and I've stopped kissing her on a particular corner of the street, the way I always used to as we drove by. I wonder why. My hands were always clasped in hers, everywhere we went. We even used to eat out in restaurants sitting next to each other, holding hands, even if that made it harder to eat lobsters, and drink our cokes.
I wonder if she remembers all that. I want all those days to come back to me. I don't know why I've stopped those little gestures that mattered so much.
I have so many special memories and times that I can never forget. We have the funniest pictures together, and a few with those romantic scented candles and ones with that perfect sunset. I really do love her more than I could love anyone else.
I want to lose my sleep over her happiness, I want to serenade her before I make love, and I want to sing a soft song in her ears until she falls asleep as she rests her head over my shoulders. I'm young enough to hopefully spend a few decades loving her, and pleasing her.
Is this the true meaning of love?
Perhaps this is what love means, or maybe what I feel for her is more than just love, maybe it's something that I would never be able to explain.
But if love is the only word that I can use to describe the ocean of emotions that well within my heart, then so be it. But I want her to know that this four letter word is still too small to explain all that I feel for her, and make up for all the times I've missed with her. But if she would understand all that I want to say, when I say that I love her, then I would just want to say that I would love her until my eyes can't see, my ears can't hear, and my heart stops beating.
If I were given a chance, then I would love her for longer, as long as I can feel love.
She is the only person who makes me feel so special, and I can't imagine living without her. I want her to know that I still remember every single moment I've shared with her, I want her to know that I still love her just as much as the day under the stars, when we were younger, and first fell in love.
I just want her to know that, come hell or high water, I would love her forever… After all, she is the definition of love and the true meaning of love for me, through the good and the bad. And if someone were to ask me what is love, all I'd have to do is look at her, because there's no other way to define it. Source – lovepanky.com

Are you in a new relationship and wondering about the right time to say the L word? If you’re wondering when to say “I love you”, use these signs.

Love is a powerful word.

For some, it’s an overwhelming word that wells up happy emotions.

For others, it’s an awkward and discomfited silence.

A lot of us place a lot of importance on the word, love, especially when it comes to saying it to a new significant other.

If you’re in a new relationship or have started dating someone recently, you’d find yourself wondering about the right time to take that next step, especially if you’re already in love.

When is the right time to say it?

When you feel it, say it. It’s that simple really.

But as simple as it may seem, there are a few things you should remember to make sure your loving words have the impact you desire.

Firstly, before you say ‘I love you’, you need to have a vague idea about your date’s feelings towards you.

Saying ‘I love you’ is like a binding contract, even if just one person says it to the other. And once you’ve said it, there’s no turning back.

Your date has to accept your proposal at some point of time or the whole things gets called off.

But you don’t have to be scared though. Love is a leap of faith, and there’s no point in playing safe in the world of dating and love.

Saying it too early will lose the value

If you think you love someone, that’s a great sign. It’s not too easy to find prospective lovers with whom we can fall deeply in love. But even if you think you’re already truly, madly and deeply in love, wait a while before expressing your lovey emotions.

If you say it too early into a relationship, you may make the whole thing feel trivial, like you’re used to saying ‘I love you’ to anyone you date. Take your time, build the romance and say it at the right moment.

Saying I love you for the first time

Here are 10 tips you need to keep in mind before saying ‘I love you’ for the first time. It’ll make the whole loving revelation much more smoother and meaningful.

1 Let your date know. Your date should know your intentions much before you actually reveal them. Let your date know just how serious you are about the relationship. When you get some time to speak with each other, talk about how special you feel when they’re around and how romantic and meaningful your life has become since they’ve stepped into it.

If you’re dating someone who’s only looking for a fling thing, they’ll know it’s time to back off.

2 Be nice. Let your romantic gestures reveal your intentions. Casual daters don’t go out of their way to do something nice for each other. If you truly love someone and are only waiting for the opportune moment, start to treat your date like you would treat your lover. Your date will instinctively know where the relationship is heading.

3 Test your compatibility. Can you visualize your date in your arms five years from now? Do you really love this person you’re dating, or is it just an infatuation that’s clouding your mind? Love isn’t a trivial thing. Before you say ‘I love you’, you need to be sure that you would want this person in your life as something more than just a weekend date.

4 Who says it? It’s usually a man’s job to profess his love and control the direction of the relationship. So all you men out there, man up and make a move, will ya?

See how easy it is to make a guy feel important? Just say the wheels of the relationship is in his hands and he’ll feel flattered. But as much as the man holds the wheel, the woman is the navigator who plans the directions.

It doesn’t matter who says it first. But generally, women play with their cards closer to the chest as evolution has trained them to play hard to get. After all, women have one egg a month to share with a man. Men have billions of sperms in every casual shoot. Who do you think needs to protect their resources here?

5 Go out on at least five dates. You think five dates are too soon? Well, it is early, but completely acceptable. The ideal time to say ‘I love you’ would be a couple of months. Wait for two months if you can hold your emotions in and try to figure the direction of the relationship. If you still love every moment you spend with your date, perhaps it’s time to take the plunge.

6 Don’t wait too long. Listen to your gut. Wait too long, and you may even lose the relationship. Sometimes, your date may get tired of waiting, especially if the girl’s waiting for the guy to say the three magical words! It’s always better to express your love earlier than later.

7 The right way to say I love you for the first time. There are many ways to say ‘I love you’ for the first time. You can create a special memory, or you can say it in the middle of a conversation. But for the best ways to say I love you, read the whole list of ideas and tips in ways to tell a special someone that you’re in love with them.

8 Don’t expect a response immediately. After you’ve used the tips in #7 to say ‘I love you’ in a manner you like, don’t push your luck. At times, your date may just not be ready to say anything back or perhaps, they just need more time to say it back to you. You’ve poured your heart out. Enjoy the moment when you’ve revealed your thoughts and sit back. The response will come when it has to.

9 Don’t apologize. Most people go wrong here. If you confess your love for someone, and they don’t respond back with anything, don’t apologize. Apologizing after asking someone out just to cover up the awkwardness will only make things feel worse.

You’re saying what’s on your mind. Why should you apologize for that? If your date isn’t ready to hear that, they probably have their own issues to deal with anyway.

10 Don’t respond on their behalf. Awkward silences are fine here. You’ve made a big revelation. You’ve just told your date that you love them. And that means you wish to become an exclusive couple, which means you may get married some day and have babies together. You see, there are a lot of things your date has to think of the minute you say ‘I love you’.

Give enough time for your date to think, and don’t go mouthing something just to cut the silence. Don’t say things like “I know it’s too early…”, “I should never have said that… what was I thinking?” or “Don’t worry about it, I just said what was on my mind, you don’t have to say anything back to me”.

If you answer on your date’s behalf, your date may just smile at you awkwardly and talk about something else. You’ve just helped your date squirm out without giving you an answer. Unless you intend to keep proposing your love every weekend, avoid answering on their behalf.

Confessing your love for the first time can be tricky, but not if you use these 10 tips on when to say I love you. Keep these tips in mind, and you’ll be able to get the message across and say ‘I love you’ in the perfect manner, at the perfect time. Source-Lovepanky.com Learn more »

Are you looking for different ways to say ‘I love you’ to your lover? You really won’t be able to find any better ways than these romantic ways.

A relationship needs many things to be successful.

But more often than not, what matters most is letting your lover know just how much they mean to you.

You can say ‘I love you’ all the time.

After all, saying ‘I love you’ is a special way to let the one who loves you realize just how special they are to you.

Anyone in a relationship for more than a few months knows that those three magical words don’t always have the biggest impact.

We say it so often when we’re in a relationship, that at times, it’s easy to overlook the real meaning of those words.

But worry not, there are many other meaningful ways to say ‘I love you’ to your partner without using any words at all.

And guess what, sometimes, these gestures can make your partner feel more special and loved than saying those three loving words a hundred times.

10 romantic and memorable ways to say ‘I love you’ all the time

The best way to let your lover know you love them is by saying it to them, at least once every day. But if you really want to make an impact and make your lover melt with happiness, keep these 10 different ways to say ‘I love you’ in mind.

1 Happy surprises. One of the best ways to let someone know you love them is by surprising them now and then. It shows your lover that you think of them even when they aren’t around. Are you going shopping? See if you find something your lover will like, or buy a box of chocolates or even a tee shirt.

And on special occasions, take your time to plan the date and create a memorable experience in your own little ways. When you surprise your lover with happy moments and make their jaws drop with delight and awe, you’d definitely show just how much you love your partner and care for them.

2 Romantic everyday gestures. If you really care about your lover, you’d definitely look for little ways to make them happy all the time. So don’t stop doing that. Always look for small ways to make your partner feel special and loved.

3 The little details. Remember the smaller details, like waking up early to prepare breakfast for your lover when they have an important day at work, calling them up and reminding them about something in the middle of the day, or offering to drive out of your way to get something for them on your way home. The little things you do for your lover can make them feel so loved and taken care of, it really is one of the sweetest and subtlest ways to let them know how much you care.

4 Sacrifices and unconditional love. Do you believe in unconditional love? It’s pure and extremely loyal. And sometimes, it can hurt too especially when it’s not reciprocated. But what’s the point of being in love if you’re not going to dive in head first and fill your heart with it? Do you ever sacrifice your own happiness just to bring a smile on your lover’s face?

Giving up on something you like just to see your lover happy is the purest way of saying ‘I love you.’ When you put your lover’s needs before yours, you’re definitely making it clear just how much you love them.

5 Dates and more memories. Do you remember your anniversary and your partner’s birthday and other special days? Being thoughtful is one of the sweetest ways to let your sweetheart know how much you love them.

Make sure you remember all of your partner’s special events and try to be a part of it as much as possible. We like to share our happiness with the one we love. And by being there for your lover when they need your hug, you can definitely let your sweeter half know you love them.

And don’t stop looking for ways to make memories all the time, by snapping pictures away or videotaping them now and then when both of you are sharing a romantic moment. Years later, just looking back at the old special times can fill both your hearts with more love and happiness.

6 Displays of affection. The best way to shower more love on your lover is by letting the world know about it. It’s a little romantic gesture that shows your partner that you’re proud to show them off as your lover to the rest of the world.

Hold hands while walking down a street, brush your lover’s hair off their face, or just snuggle up and read a book together at a café. You don’t need to make out with each other in public if you don’t want to. Just share your love with the world, and your lover will love you more.

7 Really listen. Lovers talk all the time, but most of them hardly ever listen to each other. Almost always, they just want to get their point across. But remember, you’re in a relationship and both your opinions matter. Really listen to your partner and their views, respect their opinion and never ever rubbish them off even if their thought seems idiotic, and always make them feel like you’re giving them all your attention. You can say ‘I love you’ every day, but unless you actually listen to your lover, you’ll never enjoy a happy and intimate relationship.

8 Be the pillar to lean on. Love isn’t always about affection and lovemaking. It also has a lot to do with supporting each other and being there for each other through thick and thin. And to say ‘I love you’ and actually mean it, you need to support your lover in their time of need, without getting frustrated or annoyed.

If you want to show off your love, help your lover when they ask you for help, help them become a better person by correcting their flaws, and let your partner see that you’ll always be there for them no matter what.

9 Back your lover. There’s nothing in the world that feels worse than knowing your own lover doesn’t trust you or support you. It’s heartbreaking.

Stand up for your lover when others are around, and always support your partner. Even if you do have differences, voice them to your lover when it’s just the both of you. Respect them and love them and don’t pick a fight in public just to prove a point. Your lover will be filled with love and gratitude when they realize that they can always depend on you to stand up for them, no matter what the cause or where you are.

10 Have a lot of fun. Be romantic and bring out your inner child now and then. If a song’s playing on the television, hold your lover and start dancing, have a pillow fight, chase each other around the house, call each other silly names, jump onto your partner when they’re lying on the couch and cuddle, and just do anything else that feels romantic or funny.

You don’t always have to say ‘I love you’ all the time to mean it. Gestures and fun moments can be just as meaningful too. Don’t ever lose that inner child when you’re in a relationship, or your love life will end up boring and dry. Learn to keep your romance exciting, and you’ll always find a new way to say ‘I love you’ every single day through happy times.

You don’t always have to use words to reveal your love. Sometimes, even expressions and gestures can make your partner feel more loved than ever. If you truly are looking for different ways to say ‘I love you’ and mean them beyond words can explain, use these 10 ways. Source-Lovepanky.com Learn more »

True, falling in love is easy, but staying in love always needs a bit of work. Just as long as working on a relationship feels less like work and more like fun, you should be just fine.

2 Think from your partner’s perspective when it comes to matters of the heart.

3 End an argument as soon as possible, even if hugging your partner is the last thing on your mind.
