Falling Head Over Heels...

I disagree.

Love at first sight DOES exist. Not for everyone, and not often, but it does. There IS plenty of people that lived it, and can certify its existence (myself included). Saying you don't believe in love at first sight it is just like saying you don't believe in homosexual love : both are facts, and though not happening to the majority, they do happen to some people.

Love has many faces.
You can love someone because she's gentle. Or smart. Or because she makes you feel special. Or you can even don't know at all why you love her.
Trust, respect, are fundamental ingredients for a love relationship, but they as much a cause than an effect of love.

Love is an emotion, not a rational thinking. As an emotion, it can be totally irrationnal and contradictory. You CAN love and hate and scorn someone at the same time.
It's in fact quite hard to define love. It's true that it's a word quite often used and abused, particularly to describe what is just a little moment of tenderness, or lust, or a need for company.

Love can't really be described nor defined. It can only be felt. And it can sometimes reveal itself in the most absurd situations, toward the most unexpected person, in the weirdest way.

Well said.

I think we need to distinguish between falling in love and being in love. Falling in love probably has more to do with human biochemistry than with anything else -- it really is like a drug. Building and fostering a loving relationship with your partner after the initial swoon has passed is far more profound and rewarding (and yes, difficult).

Get with the times man, we're no longer called Bjelke-Peteresenland we're now 'Beattie State'.

Oh, I've fallen head over heels, many times... after meeting my SO. But I fell in love with her first. And that was no trip I tell you. Falling for a friend is something I've always tried to avoid, but I fell in love with her, and here we are 18 months later, still alive. But through learning what love is, and that I truly love her has allowed me to lower my guard and act as an infantile "I've fallen head over heels"-person

Way too easy! I've been in love with numberous girls, about 90% of them were blond. The last time I fell in love was on 25th of march 2001. After that I noticed how silly all the other times were.

I am very picky about my lovers, but I truly believe that the gods have granted me a special power, that I can see through peoples emotions to determine their purity. Only the purest deserve my attention.
