What is love? Love is a feeling that you know when you have it. I can't explain any better than that.
See all the new ones.

I love my pets more than my favorite books, but less than my human family.
There I think I am possibly rather different from most people, because I love my animals just as much as humans, and always have. People do not understand it, and perhaps neither do I, really, but it is a fact.

. I have only been in love once, but I think it is possible for others to be in love with more that one person at the same time (eros).
I am thinking, among other things, about all the cases we hear about where one person in a relationship finds out about the bdsm need in the middle of a relationship, and with a partner who is not interested. If it was generally accepted (as much as it is now generally un-acceptable) that you can love more than one, then maybe more people could find happiness in loving in two different ways: their husband/wife and their Master/Mistress.

Is crime passionel a sign of love, or of love dead? It's a sign of being unable to control your actions.
Does mean that a crime of passion might just as well be in anger over something - anything, really - where you loose your head?

Only if your loved one is directly threatened and you kill someone to protect them from the same fate. I also believe in mercy killing (euthanasia) in cases of terminal illness, and believe that to be an act of love.
Agreed on both accounts. If it ever came to that, I would be happy to have my dear Leo9 assist me into the void, if could be done legally.
