Your Definition Of Love

Day 05 - Your Definition of Love from this meme (from finding-helena).

Love exists where the pain and the happiness of another is inextricably tied to our own; we cannot help but feel joy when they feel joy and cannot help but feel pain when they feel pain. It helps, but may not be essential, if we recognize that power and embrace our vulnerability

I think the opposite of love is alone too. That was a very beautiful line.

Thank you. I was a little bit reluctant to use the line because I was worried that it wouldn't be clear that I thought a parasitic relationship was just as much alone and not being with anyone.
