This one is about Love as it means not just romantic love which is, by the way, the first image that pops into anyone’s mind while imaging the term 'love'. So the technical definition of love states that, "Love is the emotion of strong affection and personal attachment."
But does anyone thinks about it in that way? I mean take a situation a guy, a normal guy says i love u to another male friend and he's a gay fag, he's says that to a female friend and he's in a relationship. Why? Does love always mean romance? You love your parents, don't you? Then why only this romance related image comes up in our mind?
Over time our mentality has changed to this. If someone exclaims love, we think romantic lovers. Why not anything else like friendship? People have a lot of connotations about this term. If we are able to get out of this, we'd freely be able to express ourselves. But
this does not mean shouting 'i love you' on the streets.
When you talk with
your friends and express your love towards them, then use this term. Just don't limit it to your girlfriend/boyfriend but expand it beyond that.
