real meaning of love

hello
I am totally confused to get real meaning of love. A lot  of questions are wondering in my mind that  what is love . is lust a love ?, is infatuation a love ?  After a long search i got treasure hunt about love,


                   Love is a complex perplexity that has been defined by countless people; yet, no one
has ever been close in grasping its true nature. One may turn to his/her dictionary to look for the meaning; however, even the dictionary cannot define this exactly.We then ask, how will we know if we’re already in love if we, ourselves, cannot even identify it? It is an intricate question; indeed, we often confuse love with various feelings like lust and infatuation.Back in our Elementary days, we had our own crushes and immediately thought that it was love; hence, the catchphrase “I am in love with you” and the ever-popular “love at first sight.” People carry the belief until they grow up.  They are being blinded by this sad thing. What they don’t know is that it’s not love; in fact, it is called Infatuation. We know it’s infatuation since Infatuation is distinguished by a lack of trust, loyalty, commitment, and reciprocity; in addition, there is the presence of the obsessor and the apple of the eye, which of course may or may not be attainable. For kids, there’s infatuation; however, for young adults and adults alike, there is lust. Lust, also known as lechery, is an impure act that involves one’s desire of the “flesh” of another. Lust is prevalent in teenagers and adults alike. Whenever they see an attractive person, they feel infatuated and afterward, think of unclean thoughts involving them and the concerned person. What is sad about this is that once their desires have been met, they grow tired and eventually leave their partners. What really is love then? Is it safe to say that love is anything that doesn’t fall under infatuation and lust? Love is definitely a deeper feeling; on the contrary, infatuation and lust are simply feelings that are too shallow. Love is simply too complex to be talked out; subsequently, many people still end up being perplexed  by love. This makes love a very special feeling; uniquely, it gives one an experience that no other feeling could give and that includes lust and infatuation. When everything is said and done, we can all say that love is indeed a wonderfuL feeling which can be talked about for a very long time.

              According to ancient greek theory of love which is broken down into several different thinghs as it is in most culture .for instances in indian budhism there is no word for love ,there is another word compassion  for being happy for another person's happiness , for being friendly towards all beings toward loving kindness being peaceble toward all being ..there are different words for that.we  talk a whole lot about love in our society we rarely actually explain what it  mean for ?.love is relationship between lover and beloved. Now greek like to talk about eros and agape as two different kinds of love.Eros is loved based on desire we think immediately of sexual desire. On other agape is love based on caring rather than on desire.you see something in the beloved that is worth desiring.psychologist offer point out that the clove of new born infant  for it mother is entirely eros here  source of comfort , source of relief from hunger  and here is source of warmth. Agape mean th that i want to give to you because i care about you. part of my happiness is seeing your happy that's agape it does not means that eros is bad and agape is good.The ancient  greek thought that is ideal situation was to have eros and agape in balance with each other.you have thinghs that enchance my life and i desire them and i have thinghs what i want to give to you because i care about you and vice and versa. For greek having eros and agape in balance was that's desire relationship if you maintain that over time known as philia (often translated as friendship ). Real friends freely give to each other and freely receive from each other.
 AGAPE WITHOUT EROS IS ARROGANCE .EROS WITHOUT AGAPE IS EXPLOITATION
