Maybe love is...

I can tell you what Love isn't.

Love isn't physical. An aspect of it can be, but Love Itself is not physical. If anything, Love is the opposite of the Physical. It is the Emotional. It is the Spiritual. It is found most deeply in the moments when you hold each other and whisper things you find it hard to talk about. That's love.
And Love isn't thinking only about your own satisfaction. It keeps a constant eye on the other, and their emotions. And what they want.
In order to love, you need Two. And Both need to support each other. (I reject the notion of Love as "completing someone else"). You support, you nurture. You hold the other up when they are down, and be with them when they are up.
