What is Love?

Love is, in a family sense, a feeling of unconditional duty to support and care about them, however much I dislike or disagree with them.

Love is, in a friendship sense, a feeling of loyalty, trust and closeness that lets you know they've got your back no matter what, and you'd do near anything for them.

Love is, in a material sense, a feeling of supreme enjoyment at the thought of, or from experiencing something. For example; a song, a place or a kind of food.

Love is, in a romantic sense, a deeper form of friendship love with the material form thrown in for good measure, where the closeness becomes intimacy, the enjoyment displays as sexual attraction and over time the family love emerges too, giving it an unconditional and permanent quality. All that, mixed into one feeling. That is true love.
