I think Love is about a few things:

1. Trust. Without trust, there's nothing. The basis of any relationship is trust.

2. Attraction. Obviously you have to find your other half attractive, not just physically. You have to like things about how they look, but also about how they act. Beauty fades, if you fall in love with someone based on looks, then you're going to be trading them in for another model at some point.

3. Contentment. When you reach a point with someone where you are just happy to have them in your life. You can have that with a friend or a partner.


Contrary to what G might think, I'm not a powder-puff romantic. I'm 33 years old, I've been married for almost 13 years, and we have had our fair share of ups and downs. We have both had to work hard at this relationship. When the good times roll, it's easy to do, but when you are faced with problems then you have to put a bit of effort in. We've had to do this several times over the years. Our life isn't perfect. Our marriage isn't perfect. But, it means enough to us that we fight to keep it when something threatens it.

There. That's what love is.
