So many definitions for love. Is it any wonder that the word has lost it's meaning among couples. We use the word to describe so many things...I love peanuts, I love chocolate and so forth. Can you really love peanuts or chocolate or do you really like them. We have desensitize it to the point that it has become just  "a word". When you say "I love you" to your wife,husband and so forth it should be something and not just a "word" that you are used to saying to them. This is just my thoughts on it...maybe I am wrong...then again...maybe not.
