What is Love?

After doing many weeks of soul searching and thinking, i've come to realise a very important question.... Just what is love? I guess it runs in the same context of what is life? But there is a difference in life and love...
In life, you are what you want your life to be... There are no external human factors to immediately influence the outcome... You can give 100% in life and see results, however small being churned out and you can feel the satisfaction of it... But in love, whether or not you give 10% or 100%, the results will always depend on the other party... For example, you can love someone whole-heartedly and never ever cheat on that person or lie to them, but if they have a change of heart, every other thing that you do can never salvage the situation... He/She will always remember the bad moments in the time that you were together...
With this in mind, just what is love? Why is it that people cannot live without it? Is it really so potent to the extent that a person who never loves becomes a dark image of themself?
