What is love. Love is primarily not a feeling, but a decision, an attitude that expresses itself in actions. To make love dependent on our feelings means waiting for the right feelings. Our wounds and our selfish nature will hinder us from loving. Love is the opposite of egoism. Egoism centers on itself, and love means a you, or our fellow human beings. So love fundamentally means the other.
