text: what does it mean to you? what is love? what does it mean to you? how do you know when your in love? and when you get hurt from it, will you ever want to be in love again? why? you will never be able to pick a best answer.  love is the forever unknown.  the first time you think you're in love, you're not.  you just have a very strong emotional connection to that person.  when you are actually in love it will hit you one day that you are, it will surprise you.  and once you lose it, it's going to scar you, so bad that some people don't know how to cope and actually shutdown.  but you can live again and love again.  but you will never love in the same way.  love is universal.  even animals have it.  i've seen where monogamous mates will die, and the other will die shortly there after, why?  i say love.  always remember love isn't all we need, but we definitely need it.
