Does Love really exist?

Love.
One of the most unexplainable and undefinable terms ever to be known in the history of mankind. Some people are obsessive and optimistic with the whole concept of being in love. As someone said, it happens to be that
"I am in love, with the idea of being in love."
Whereas, on the other hand, others bitterly criticize love, altogether. It's rarely seen, that someone has a neutral experience or comment regarding this phenomenal issue. In short, 'love' is a highly misunderstood and misused (even abused!) term and the concept behind it is even more complex.

Love, itself, doesn't seem to be an entity. It's not like other abstract emotions like anger or sorrow. It's a vague cloud that blurs your vision. When you don't understand the emotional tsunami that you undergo, you claim to be in love.

For me, love does not independently exist. It is an emotional black hole. There are certain emotional necessities which a single person can not attain, without the help of an intimate relationship. The level of intimacy required, the understanding, emotions required and needs to be fulfilled vary from person to person. The amalgamation of these various aspects create a mush of something that cannot be clearly identified. So, we call it, love.
