I got LUV for alot of people. But then I got LOVE for certain people. Theres a difference between those two. Theres luv and then theres love. Whats the difference?? Sometimes Im not sure. But lately Ive started to understand the subtle differences. People throw around the "L" word alot so sometimes it hard to know what it really means or know when you genuinely love someone.
I have alot of friends, associates and acquaintances in my life. My friends and associates in high school i got luv for, i got maaad luv for em and always will, but i dont LOVE them. Or even past girlfriends i dont LOVE them but i will forever have LUV for them. I guess Luv is having affection or a bond with a particular person for what they have meant to you or what their potential could be or could have been. For instance, you find out you have a mutual friend with someone; a typical response could be, "oh man, u know Kim?? i know Kim too, i luv her, thats my dog, shes crazy!" Not meaning you actually LOVE her but there was a bond of some sort or she was really cool and just have nothing bad to say about her. "Luv" could also mean you like someone sooo much that you love that person for whatever reason, but its just a really strong "like", this is typically reserved for a friend and not necessarily a boyfriend or girlfriend.
"Love" is the last resort; the highest affection you can have for someone and its unflappable, and it should never waver. You LOVE your family and you also LOVE your friends; your closest friends. Just regular friends or associates you got "luv" for. But your best friends and family, you love them because you would do anything for them and no matter what they say or what they do to you, somehow someway you still remain close and the "love" you have doesnt falter, it remains. Loving someone, is accepting a person whole, the strengths, weaknesses, faults, aspiration, the whole she-bang! You cannot pick and choose what you love about someone, but you can pick and choose what you 'luv" about someone which is the fundamental difference. Someone you got "luv" for you just might certain things, but the whole person; u might not even know the whole person enough to "love" them.
In relationships, you cant just luv that person, it may start out that way but it will eventually turn into "love". Cuz when you're in a relationship you have to love a person totally without hesistation. It cant be a wish-washy bullshit "luv", at least if you want the shit to work. It s gotta brick wall solid love. "luv" can change, can blow into dust...you can forget about "luv" and can easily switch to disdain or just plain ol nothing. But love will remain always and will stand the test of time...
