That is the definition of, "love" as defined by dictionary.com.

There is no definition of a phrase. You can define certain words, but a phrases, as they are largely informal, do not have definitions. When I use the the phrase, "I love you" it is done in a almost obligatory way.

When I leave a family member's house, although I do care for them, I don't say, "love you" on the way out because it is worth mentioning, but rather because it's a programed response. It's much like saying, "ow" when you stub your toe. You don't say that because it's natural, but because you were taught to say it at a young age to show you were in pain. The only time I have said the phrase above to a family member and meant it, was when I was scared, happy, or excited.

"Love" is a man-made concept. That's it.

That doesn't mean it doesn't have merit, but I've always thought, "love" was more a sense of dependency upon an individual or group for emotional aid. When a person dies you don't mourn because the person is dead, but because you will no longer have access to them. If you think about it, love isn't so much a wonderful, unexplainable emotion, but rather an act of selfishness. That's why couples sometimes get divorced; they subconsciously got what they needed from the relationship and no longer need to maintain it. Is that sad? Maybe, but it seems to be the truth as I view it.

Whenever I have said, "I love you" to a girl, it was because she may have felt that way towards me, and I believed I owed her that much. I don't say it to, "get her into bed" or anything so crude, but because it only seems courteous.

It's just a word.

However, when I found one girl, I noticed myself questioning all these beliefs. For the first time, when I thought about saying that phrase to her, it had more gravity.

More meaning.

I know that the word means nothing to me, but I can't help thinking that it should when I'm around her. The very word causes me joy, as well as fear of rejection I haven't known since I was thirteen with low self-esteem. It's totally baffling.

My final answer: It depends.

When you are stimulated adequately, it means the world.
When you aren't, it's just another explanation for the processes our brains impose upon us.

That's it.

Fair enough?

Love is when that person is your first thought in the morning and your last thought at night, is when you look into that person's eyes and for that one second time slows down and the whole world disappears, is when you smile for no apparent reason when you think or see that special person, you may feel a warm and fuzzy feeling in the pit of your stomach or maybe just a warm/heat wave rushes through. your body when they're close, love is when you miss them when they're gone and worry like crazy until you are sure they are safe out of harm's way, and love is when you're overwhelmed with emotions for one person and this feeling feels like no other, but. you can't quite say the definite reason why you are feeling the way you are feeling. Love is a feeling unexplained.

As a dreamer i can exaggerate it up to what may literally be beyond the flesh&blood like a drunkenly written poem that may seem more beautiful the more full of crap/punchlies it is:that may make you feel embarrassed when you re-read it after you sober up,at times...
But the worldly one might ignite evil especially when defined in contexts like the romantic ones,by backwarded-backwarding/backworded-backwording minds that may grow bored(if not bitter)too,i guess...
LOVE here in many of it's worldly forms may also encompass the:Lols Of the Vulnerable/Vain and Vacuumed/Vanishing Earthlings...

my definition of 'I love you' is when you care for a person so much, even through all the imperfections &flaws there may be (because nothing is perfect) you still love them anyway. saying I love you is when you tell a person that you love them, but actions speak louder than words, so saying i love you is not enough, it must be shown to be really, truly felt.
