instinct...

its needed for the propogation of the species... if there was no love, there would be less care for children.

It's definately an emotion. I don't choose to be an asshole, I love to be one. :D

I'd say it's an emotion as well. It's an emotion that can make you choose to do things that you would never normally do.

no.. women who are in abusive relationships still love the guy they are with. i'm sure if they could choose not to love the guy then they would.

We CHOOSE to listen to this EMOTION. I, on the other hand, block it out entirely. :rolleyes:

I was gonna say all Emotion, but then Choice overrides Emotions.

Think about an Ex that you just fcking despise now. You did choose to turn love into hate. I mean, she probably did something bad for you to hate her, but you get the idea.

Think about it, we control the love emotion all the time. An example would us wanting to bang some hottie that you saw randomly right? But then you end up realizing, you're not really loaded, nor do you look like Brad Pitt. So then we just stop that feeling and look for the next target instead.

So I'm actually voting for Choice!

I love how the love thread has an ad for FilipinaHeart.com in it. That latest Muslim rant thread over in politics had the same ad but for Arab girls.

e-harem heaven, here I come (pun intended)! :rofl:

Absolutely not, that's why breakups are so hard on people.
IMO of course...

First time, it's an emotion. After a divorce, it's definately choice! :rofl:

Love is an Emotion but like all emotions can be controlled and choices can be made from that control.

Like anger. You feel anger at someone hitting your car but you can choose how you react to that emotion.

You love someone but can choose to ignore it if you like. As with all emotions there is strength and levels to it which effect how easy or difficult it is to control.

I always say attraction is not by choice....so you have no control over who you are attracted to and who you are not. So love would be similar and it would be all about emotions.
