What is love?

None of you bastards tagged me in your stupid "♫ What is love, baby, don't hurt me, baby don't hurt me ♫" posts. But Makuluwo and Chavie have left an open tag so... here goes... -_-

"'Love' as we know it is a product manufactured in Hollywood by the media. What we call love is actually affection generated by lust. Love is essentially lust. There's no such thing as 'love at first sight'. It's always LUST at first sight.
Real love is selfless, unconditional and transcends lust and attraction. That kinda love only exists between parents and children.
However, romantic love too can come to that stage, but it takes YEARS to develop. I would say old couples are really "in love". The younger ones are more "in lust".
Just my $0.02."

Left the above as a comment on a friend's FB note on the same topic.

LMAO @ baby don't hurt me song. You total noob. :P

I thought so too, but now I think it's total bullshit BECAUSE there is a flaw.
I've seen people say they're 'in love' with people for years and so on, but how can that be if they're in lust? Lust is induced by instantaneous hormones and is very superficial, can last for upto a month at the very most.

Unless you're like, a monstrous mutated powerhouse of hormonal madness. Like your mum.

Besides, Love is lust most of the time.
