Its sexualized, it may not be completely respectful, but you know the consent is there and that these are people treating each other like humans, not men treating helpless women as objects for their use and abuse to fullfill disturbing fantasies that are downright scarey and illegal if they were inflicted in real life. A lot of people mistake that for love. Love is something more precious and yet less fragile than that. Infatuation is an emotional rollercoaster that people experience at the beginning of a serious relationship. Love is the tranquil glow that is somehow brighter than infatuation without causing all the burns.
Love is about knowing one another through and through.
About being able to say anything. About not feeling jealous when he goes out without you because you know that he'll come back. About always having a shoulder to cry on, and always being there when he needs to weep. Love is something that's quiet and spectacular all at once. It's not the huge emotional ride like infatuation, which, like a flashfire, comes and goes before you realize it.
