love.

what is love? is love unconditional or something teenagers feel for the first six months of a relationship until they grow bored of the person they're with?
what's the difference between loving your family, friends or your other half? is there even one? love is supposed to be unconditional, yet so many people i know don't love each other forever. it's always up to the other to keep it going. whether it's loving your best friend, loving your girlfriend, loving your boyfriend, loving your brother even.
what is this unknown emotion? people say it so freely, yet do they really know what it is? you may think you're falling in love when you meet "the one". but is it really love, or merely attraction on it's own? you're not attracted to your family (well i would hope not), yet you love them so much. unconditionally. how can you love someone else the same way?
