What is love?

Another person's happiness is not your responsibility.

When you love someone, you accept them and form some sense of duty to them for sure, not unconditionally. You have a lot of empathy and undestanding towards them and are no longer a fair weather fan.

That question really only has one answer.

Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more

Men fall in love when their protective instinct is triggerred. This is why a man is more likely to fall in love with a woman if she shows vulnerability. So, for a woman vulnerability is a key part of love, while for a man it is responsibility to care for the vulnerable being that is a woman. Likewise, a woman must care for the vulnerable child that she has born, and is why often it is said that the most true & pure love is that of a woman to a child.

To me, love is easy. It's having a best friend that always gets you. That's not to say the relationship is without arguments, just that the vibes are always there to be open with each other.

My dad once told me, “I don’t care if you don’t love me. I care that you respect me.”

I learnt that for men being respected and admired/appreciated means more than what we as women view as love. For the record, I love my late father more than anyone excluding my mother but to him it was ‘love’ when I showed him the respect and appreciated his efforts.

My partner is the same. For me being loved is being protected and cared for. For him it’s my support with his projects and admiration for him supporting us. We both believe in being the best for ourselves physically and mentally for one another. ‘Love’ is constantly changing/evolving verb.

I am sorry if I sound too rational and non-emotional fluffy language.

There is no such thing as "love", and love is not a duty. Marriage is about duty, when both side fulfilled their duty, then they will feel happy.

Biologically, "love" is simply pair-bonding
Physologically, "love" is simply a mixture of emotion - familiarity, affection, commitment, sacrifice etc

For me, female side of "love" is sacrifice, male side of "love" is responsibility.
You sacrifice your health to bear a child, you sacrifice your career to build family, you sacrifice your interest to cater to your husband.
Men responsible after taking your virginity/oath/marriage, Men responsible to take up the burden of performance to provide for you, Men responsible to protect you in all scenario despite his fear.

Loyalty and sacrifice

I think of love as the desire to sacrifice for the betterment of another.

Whether that sacrifice is something major like the time and financial investment of raising a child, or something as trivial as watching a show you don’t like with your partner because it makes them happy.

I think everything else regarding love can be derived from that statement.
