For love to survive it needs trust and belief. You can fall in love without that but it won't last. It will starve without trust and belief.

    Easily.......

    Your Mom or Dad
    A brother or sister......

    You love them, and you must. But they can do things that force you NOT to trust them. Their record shows you that they can't be trusted.

    It can be a good friend. The closest of friends. But you can't trust them with a secret because you KNOW they will tell others.

    You can still Love them all. You just need to know them for their imperfections and treat them accordingly.

    No fighting, screaming or yelling.

    Fairly evaluate the Loved Ones where there is a problem, then act fairly. Not total abandonment, just barriers to your interactions based on their actions.

    Unless it is an abusive relationship. Then cut & run!

    yes

    people love cats , and the cat usually shows little affections some times

    love is caring for them [ as they are ]

    love is a feeling of [ compassion ] for them that some times is [ unexplainable ]

    wanting to save them from a disaster ...and feeling horrible if they were hurt

    when you didn't even know them
    __________________________

    i agree with phil8656....love makes you do things you would not normally do

    for the benefit of the other person

    Yes you can love them for their good quality's and try to keep temptation out of their path, and you learn to recognize their lies. But this love will never be unconditional like you would feel for a soul mate, more like what you would feel for a child who is unruly and with problems, like drugs that keep your relationship strained.

    Love is considering the self interest of others as if it were your own.

    It is how we form couples, groups & nations.
    Love is the survival strategy of collective action.

    So the question of Love is always WHY are you spending your time & energy to promote the well being of OTHERS.

    And the answer is typically because you BELIEVE & TRUST that these OTHERS are in turn looking after YOUR well being.

    We USUALLY Love others because we 'Believe & Trust' that we are in turn Loved BY them.

    But this is not the ONLY reason we Love.

    Biologically speaking we are here to insure the survival of our Children..
    It is logical for us to desire they focus their Love on their children rather than us. So if you do not REQUIRE mutual Love , you do not need to 'Believe or Trust' that it is there.

    Nor is Belief or Trust needed if your reason for Loving is self evident.
    If you Love someone for the beauty & nobility they bring to the world,
    if their 'gift' is already given or ever before you,
    then you do not need to Believe it is coming.

    You do not need to Trust the Sun is shining when you are standing in its light.

    Unfortunately yes. I like to think that some trust has to be there in the beginning, but who knows what the heck our hearts are thinking. My ex-fiancee and I were very much in Love. But, when she stopped I did not. I knew she was lying, stealing and cheating, and I no longer trusted her or believed in her. I knew it was ending for sure. But, stupid me, I could not throw her out because I still loved her and even helped her on her way.

    First you need to define "love". It can mean so many different things to different people and different contexts. So called pure love (if there is such a thing) should transcend everything. Any other definition can be anything you like.

    In the present world.......
    love is something .........
    Trust is something else...
    Belief... is something and some thing else...
    None of them are inter-related or inter-connected.
    people are weighing to the extent of situations to exploit
    for their instant comfort.

    Yes, but it would be in your best interest for you to wear protection if you don't fully trust them.
    Also you could damage your reputation if you are doing that a lot.
    But if someone is really really hot, who cares... Right?

    my answer is yes even though it's not a good idea. You can love someone without being in a relationship. don't you remember those yearnings from a distance?

    No. You must trust the other person in order to love them. Trust is one of the reasons you love that person.
