    Love
In summary, the concept of love is often misused and misunderstood. It is not just a feeling or emotion, but a choice and a commitment to prioritize someone else's wants and needs above your own. Love can exist in various forms, including romantic relationships, but it is not limited to them. Love can also be seen in strong attachments and deep affection for family, friends, and even pets. It is not just a romantic concept, but a universal one.

love is an infectious disiese. it infects one person and can then spread to other people. symptoms are unusual emotional states, mood swings, increase in sexual tension, the first few months of infection are generally the most potent but then the effect of the symptoms wane gradually, the symptoms can last for any amount of time ranging from mere months to decades depending on how serious the infection is. there is no actually cure for the disiese and it must be left to run its course.

here are some math equations for love:
love=N*need/hate
need=M/experienced
M and N are some proportionalities to equalize the counterparts.

if love was desire then we'd only desire(no need of love then)
the more you love the more you desire works better cause it expreses proportionality.love and desire are different dimensions.

I'm nuts!?
