What is Love, Really?

I have been in & out of love many times, been through all the heart aches, the adrenaline rushes, the tears, the queezy feeling in my tummy, the flattering moments; and of course the unforgettable ones.

But what is Love, really?
I have yet to learn of the words commitment, faithfulness, thoughtfulness, let alone being romantic. My friend once told me, it's better to love and be hurt, then never loved at all. But seriously, I still feel I'm such a noob in it, I don't know where to start.
I know love holds no boundaries, like love will look pass the issue of different backgrounds, lifestyles, status, & of course, race; but when you really come to think of it, it's not as easy as it seems. Many of my friends have been through relationships and they all looked simple, and fairytale like, but somehow a part of me still fear.

Then again, fear is the heart of love, isn't it?
I've been busy searching for love, that I failed to notice, it was right in front of me, all this while.
Honestly, I think I'm one of the hardest persons to love & to take care of, I fear for you.
