Yes, when you are in love, you know it, and no other person opinion really matters....
Love doesn't hurt, lust and infatuation do...
The love I feel for my wife doesn't hurt, not in the least bit... It is a rather joyful feeling that makes it a pleasure to be around her and does make for a bit of longing when we are apart.... But no pain...
OTOH, masterbation can hurt, especially with calloused hands.... Which, I would imagine, would be the same as masterbating with a cheese grater, mildly amusing, but mostly painful...
1.0 x 10-1000 is where the point is....

it's pretty easy to gauge that the reason you're asking for people's opinions on love is because you want to compare thoughts and determine if you're in love
OK, in case you missed it the first few times, Snay, I AM NOT DOING THAT. Perhaps you should learn to read.
Good job, Frank. You get a copy, if I ever finish it.

Oh, I read what you posted, Omega. I just don't believe you.
Oh, yes, you're writing a paper. Of course you are. Relax kid, we can see around you. Our little Omega is in love (maybe) ... you're so cute and adorable, awwww, let me pinch your cheeks ... awwwww ...

I must admit. The markers of a paper on love, will be very spectacularly impressed by a research paper that includes among its references: "Those quacks and goofballs on the Flare Sci-Fi Forums."

I'm in imminent danger of falling OUT of love in the near future.
But that's another story.
*SIGH*
Love can too hurt.
I love her, but I may have to let her go, because I'm not sure I can take dealing with all her attendant baggage anymore. It was supposed to get better once she moved in with me. It hasn't. It's gotten worse. And now I'm NEVER free from it.

I was planning to keep my beliefs on love out of this thread, but since it's lost its original purpose...
What do you mean, you can't handle it any more, and that you're never free of it? WHAT you? If you love her, there IS no you. There is only her well-being and happiness. If you don't want to be totally subsumed in caring for another, then you don't want to love. Pick one.

I find myself in the uncommon position of agreeing with Frank. Although I'm going to expand it a bit and say that Liz is likely to be more disapointed than Omega. Good old Stevie boy wants to be in love, Liz wants to fuck repeatedly. Considering that
1/ The first time is nearly always awful, and
2/ You have no way of judging how good someone is until you actually do do them,
Then the pair could be setting themselves up for several decades of "Sorry, I've got a headache tonight."

It isn't as though I haven't met a lot of people. Goodness knows it isn't that. It isn't just that... it isn't... it's... it's despicable.

Agreed. Love should be equal. It should not be one person giving over his or her identity for another. That's unhealthy and dangerous.
