 Love

Love is a complex set of emotions, behaviors, and beliefs associated with strong

feelings of affection, protectiveness, warmth, and respect for another person. Love can also

be used to apply to non-human animals, to principles, and to religious beliefs. For example, a

person might say he or she loves his or her dog, loves freedom, or loves God

(https://www.goodtherapy.org/blog/psychpedia/love).

Love is inherently free. It cannot be bought, sold, or traded. You cannot make

someone love you, nor can you prevent it — not for any amount of money. Love cannot be

imprisoned, nor can it be legislated. Love is not a substance, not a commodity, not even a

marketable power source. Love has no territory, no borders, no quantifiable mass or energy

output (https://www.psychologytoday.com/intl/blog/love-without-limits/201111/what-is-

love-and-what-isnt).

Love is when we feel something deep about someone and you respect them and want

them to be in the rest of your life. There are different kinds of love, there is love for family,

for friends, for things, and animals, and there is this deeper love that you feel for someone.

You feel great appreciation for his/her presence and you want to devote yourself to him/her,

but you can’t make someone love you just because you love them, you can’t buy love and

you can’t make someone not love you. So basically, you can’t control feelings and emotions.

Love for family, family is a group of people that function as a unit. The simple

definition of it is parents with their children living together. But family is often used to

consider someone very important. They may be not blood relative but cherish them as you

cherish your family. Family supports you, guides you, be with you whenever you have
problems which make you to love them. It is a unique type of love because you can feel their

love longer than other types of love, you make bonds with them. Whenever you experience

struggles, they are the first to help you.

Family strengthens with communication, bonds and other family tradition that you

do. Healthy family love is that you love them unconditionally, you show respect for each

other, you work together to achieve your family goals and even everyone’s goal in life, you

communicate with them, you enjoy things you do together, and you help each other

whenever they needed help.

Friendship love helps you through hard time as much as any other type of love. It is

the longest lasting type of love mainly because it can start even when you’re a little kid till

you grow up, because friendship is often found in others that has the same age as you.

Friendship is when you cherish someone and sometimes you consider them as your family.

For a lot of people friendship love has been the most reliable type of love in their lives.

Friendship love is the type of love that has the least of complications, hassles and problems.

It is considered as the deepest and most profound type of love.

The love for things or object is just simple because you love them for being your

possession. There are different objects that you love just like for example your cellphone.

Cellphone is very important these days or in this generation because of the level of

technology we have today. So basically you love the things or objects because they make you

happy in different ways. This also covers the love for your pets or other animals because you

consider them a family member or friends. It is good to have pets because they can make you

happy even in a very simple way.

 The most intimate type of love is the love for someone or love for your partner in life.

It is where the definition of love came from. Loving someone is the happiest type of love

especially when he/she loves you the way you love him/her. Loving someone is when you

feel romantically or sexually attracted and they are very important to you. Loving and being

love by someone the greatest feeling because he/she will become your partner for the rest of

your life. Respecting the one that you love is the start for all other things that you can give

for him/her.

There are also different kinds of problems in love and the very first one is trust.

Mistrust can lead to being over protective, you need to trust someone that you love, just let

him/her do whatever he/she wants to do. Other problems are caused by miscommunication,

some people tend to dominate things like love there are people that do or make decisions on

their own even though there’s someone that should be included in making decisions. There

are a lot of things that can cause problems and cause heartbreak but the most important thing

is that make your partner happy and as long as you’re happy you can solve these problems.

Love is the greatest feeling you can feel and being loved is even more overwhelming.

Loving and being loved is greater than having other things and as great as it feels the greater

sadness it will cause if it has been broken. Love is like trust it can’t be bought, and it is given

voluntarily and not by asking someone to give it and you can earn it once you start giving it.
