Love is any of a number of emotions and experiences related to a sense of strong affection or profound oneness. Depending on context, love can have a wide variety of intended meanings. Romantic love is seen as a deep, ineffable feeling of intense and tender attraction shared in passionate or intimate attraction and intimate interpersonal and sexual relationships. Love can also be conceived of as Platonic love, religious love, familial love, and more casually, great affection for anything considered strongly pleasurable, desirable, or preferred, including activities and foods. This diverse range of the meanings in the singular word love is often contrasted with the pluraily of Greek words for love, reflecting the concept's depth, versatility, and complexity.

My beloved is mine and I am my beloved
Place me like a seal over your heart, like a seal on your arm, for love is as strong as death, its jealously unyielding as the grave. It burns like a blazing fire, like a mighty flame. Many waters cannot quench love; rivers cannot wash it away. If one were to give all the wealth of his house for love, it would be utterly scorned. |
