@shubhirastogi3192 I agree there are always exceptions. I think the word relationships can be used broadly, in that with everyone in the world we can have some kind of relationship where some form of love could be explored. There is a common love for example that we can develop for any other human being.
However, I understand you because we can also focus our attention only on significant others such as between a man and a woman in relationships. Some of those relationships actually go on to be loving parents which is often a purely giving thing.

Your father's love is 'what love really is.' "Relationship-love" is humanity's feeble attempt to recreate that love (paradoxical, because 'what HE felt he was doing' was actually "trying to recreate HIS father's love" )

Well Shubhi, It does exist but some circumstances force us to believe that it doesn't. I have myself loved my best friend truly but "har kisi ko nahi milta yhan pyarr zindagi mein". She didn't have feelings for me. SO, these kind of situations force us to believe that it doesn't exist!

Mostly 'no.' That is, I disagree with 'what many people think "love" is.'
The dictionary defines it as something mostly having to do with 'feelings' (be they 'of attachment' or 'of attraction/stimulation'). Therefore I would believe in it as much as I believe in 'anger' or 'hunger'---feelings that also motivate people to do things.
There are people that say that "God Is Love"---sorta 'sanctifying the feelings that you imagine BIND you to the other.' Maybe that's true, if the meeting is a "fit mate." But 'the love of two men- or two women-for each other' is NOT a 'fit mate!' much the same way a 'lonely divorcer' & a 'self-aware software-app' are not a 'fit mate' (Spike Jones' Her
So--unless you think God is nothing more than 'a hitch in your giddy-up'--Love IS NOT what gets same-gender couples together. Thus love is no-more 'power to get together' than hunger is 'the power to eat' (and I know plenty of people who eat when they're NOT hungry ... sometimes-including ME).

Love is like a multicoloured balloon that looks very beautiful and stable from a distant place only which can be pinched by the single pin.
Thanks.

Yes, may be you are right..Love from a guy and a girl point of view is totally different. I mean to say both have their own meaning of love and together it looses its meaning. That is what a girl is expecting in love will not be fulfilled by his partner and vice versa...as both are differnet genders then how come similar...you like somthing because you think that way..so love between two differnt genders may not be the actual love but may have its meaning in same gender...

True love is giving oneself for another unconditionally. Jesus said there is no greater love than to lay down your life for another.
