Recently, I came across this posting and after reading, really wanted to share with everyone. To me, in as few words as possible, this describes "in love":
I want the kind of love that makes me know deep down that I am accepted, cherished, respected and thought of. Love should be sexy and physically fulfilling. It should be full of humor and emotional connection. It should outlast arguments and hurt feelings. It should overcome personality differences. Love picks up dirty socks and closes the toilet lid without yelling. Love is holding hands no matter how long you’ve been together. Love is seeing the best in someone. Love is putting forth into a relationship that which you want out of it.
