07: a post on what exactly you think love is.

I think love is centered around the meaning of one word: unconditional.

I believe you truly love someone when your feelings for them are unconditional. They can mess up and upset you, and however pissed off and sad and fed up you feel, you still love them. You might not even want to love them, but you do. That's what I think love is. When nothing someone does is terrible enough to stop you from loving them. I believe the love stops when they do something that crosses the line into something that you just can't look past. Because then, your feelings for them aren't unconditional for them anymore because there's a condition.

I think this sort of love can be for family, friends or otherwise. You can have unconditional love for anyone.

I also think that love is to do with soul mates. And I don't believe that soul mates can only be romantic. A soul mate is when you find someone who is a part of you, and when you're not with them you can notice the gap. Best friends can be soul mates. That's also love.
