"Your palms are sweaty, knees are weak and your arms are heavy" This line NEVER gets old. 👌

The amount of baby dont hurt me, dont hurt me no more is hilarious

"When a man learns to love, he must bear the risk of hatred." - Madara

"It all starts,it all ends,with you" I don't think people realise how powerful those words are and to end that for a video about love is truly magnificent and brilliant I'm not ashamed to say that I inadvertently cried while watching this video and it has peaked my interest in philosophy about self love and external love Thank you aperture for these videos that has insights on several generic topics that are usually not the topic of conversation where in turn is super important for life It's been 2 years since I subscribed for ya and I haven't ever got bored

What is love? Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more What is love? Yeah, yeah I don't know why you're not there. I give you my love, but you don't care So what is right? And what is wrong? Gimme a sign What is love? Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more What is love? Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more Oh, I don't know, what can I do? What else can I say, it's up to you I know we're one Just me and you I can't go on What is love? Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more What is love? Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more What is love? What is love? What is love? Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more Don't hurt me Don't hurt me I want no other, no other lover This is our life, our time When we are together, I need you forever Is it love? What is love? Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more What is love? Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more Yeah What is love? Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more What is love? Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more Baby, don't hurt me Don't hurt me no more What is love?

No matter how generic this might sound, you'll know it when you feel it. There can't be a more accurate answer.

"Just like people don't have to do anything for you to love them, you don't have to either" one of the best lines

For all the people who say they think they've been in love, or they don't believe in it - you'll know it 100% when you fall in it. It's very real. I'm a 39 year old, single, no kids by choice guy. I've been in love once at 24 years old. The type where you longed for her. Your heart skipped when it was her calling. It never happened again. And I don't know if it ever will. Many ex's later and I still sometimes smile when I think about those good times. 100% she was the love of my life. It's real. Try not to lose it once you catch it.

“Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.” - Paul ‭‭

As someone who’s is in a difficult part of their life around this, this video really helped me as well as being beautifully made

Life is just like a play... it has several acts like: Infant, Toddler, Tweenage, Adolescence, Adulthood, Old age... The protagonist is you yourself... Your family and friends are all the side characters... Your love is your Hero/Heroine... The ticking clock is is the antagonist And the best thing is that you're the scriptwriter!!! So Just enjoy writing your script

By this definition, I was in love only once in my life. I was 15 years old. Since then, I haven't been able to feel it, and lately I don't think I even love myself anymore.

Aperture: What is love? Me:BABY DONT HURT ME-

This channel is by far the most underrated informative channel ever. You make the best videos and enlighten others with your thoughts, love the way you explain.

fleeting love is a feeling true love is a choice i chose my dog almost at random, not because of anything he did to make me love him, but because i had love to give and noone to give it to i chose someone that simply looked lovable enough i love him more than anyone today, and he is healthy and happy.

We as a society will NEVER stop thinking 'Baby don't hurt me' as soon as someone asks What is love lmao

Nothing like coming home to a new aperture video

Thank you for highlighting how love is not just romantic, it’s familial love and friendship too. There are people, like me, who are aromantic, which means that we rarely or never fall in love, no matter how much we want to. People who don’t know us will say that we will never love and don’t have emotions. This simply is not true. We still feel love, just not the kind that makes your heart beat faster and releases the dopamine and sex hormones. We love our friends and our family, and still feel everything else the same way that others do. So again, thank you for this.

"One can promise actions, but not feelings, for the latter are involuntary. He who promises to love forever or hate forever or be forever faithful to someone is promising something that is not in his power." -Friedrich Nietzsche Love is a decision, it is a judgment, it is a promise. If love were only a feeling, there would be no basis for the promise to love each other forever. A feeling comes and it may go. How can I judge that it will stay forever, when my act does not involve judgment and decision. -Erich Fromm

Some say love is biological, but to be fair. What's the point of still loving someone who is dead or just gone? There isn't. I love my mom, my dad, my brother and my SO. But if my mom passes. I will never stop loving her. Love is one of the weirdest nonsensical things in the universe

Whenever I here people say 'Love isn't real! Its all in your head!' or something along those lines I think of that time Harry asks, 'Tell me one last thing. Is this real? Or has this been happening inside my head?' And Dumbledore says, 'Of course it is happening inside your head, Harry, but why on earth should that mean that it is not real?' They weren't talking about love but I thought it applied pretty well anyway lol

Never been interested in a YT video like this for a long time. thank you Aperture, this is why you're my fav Creator

"Dancing in the dark with strangers, no LOVE around me." He just described Ludus fallably.

I get very philosophical every Friday when aperture releases a video

Love is pain, sacrifice, and dedication. Love is selfless. Love is about giving, not taking. Love does not discriminate. Bear in mind that love has nothing to do with romance and vice versa. They are two separate phenomena which are oftentimes lumped together in various cultures. Romantic love _is strictly conditional,_ whereas love is _unconditional._ That is the chief difference imho. Love can also to turned inwards as it can be turned outwards. To love and accept others requires the ability for one to love and accept themselves as well.

Love is a four letter word used to explain stuff that is usually positive •I love my parents •I love adventures •I love penguins •I love the way he teaches etc.

"Love is a neuro chemical memory enhanced bond with anpother person formed after repeated exposure catalysed by the release of hormones such as testosterone estrogen dopamine norepinephyrine seratonin oxytocin vasopressin" -Thoughty2

Without watching this yet. I'll answer it. Love is often confused for lust and we associate it with our carnal desires. Sadly many people feel they don't love someone anymore because they can't be satisfied by them. This is 100% the wrong way to look at this. We also throw the word around loosely and it really dilutes the true feelings associated with it. When you truly love your life partner or significant other or best friend, it's not different than the love you have for close family. Your carnal desires have nothing to do with it. Love is when no matter how tough things may get, you'll do anything for someone to help better their life. Even if it means sacrificing your friendship in the end because you feel it's the only way to help the other person or giving your life to save them. When you have different world views and you still tolerate one another and take care of each other when either of you are sick. And so on.

The answer is simple. “Baby don’t hurt me, don’t hurt me, no more.”

"Love is the state in which man sees things most of all as they are 'not'. The illusion-creating force is there at its height, likewise the sweetening and 'transforming' force. One endures more when in love than one otherwise would, one tolerates everything..." - FWN

Aperture I've been following you for a couple of months but I want to tell you how I truly appreciate your videos for many and many reasons. First you are helping me study: English, my second language, Philosophy and more simply just the art of speaking. Second you bring every time such an interesting subject, fullfilled in every information. Thank you very much for your work

regardless of the subject, you know it's going to be a bomb video when aperture uploads

"Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more."

I think Love can only be felt, you can't describe it! it's like an abstract phenomenon from which you can get different meanings! I just love Love 💕

This is a phenomenal video, Perfectly covered from the accurate biology behind love to the more human raw feeling part of it. "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails." 1 Corinthians 13: 4-8 (NIV)

Nothing like a aperture video before sleep

Every time I am in doubt about the interest I have in the thing you are going to talk about ,like love, and every time I end with the thought: this guy is a genius. Thanks for the life lessons my man.

"A chemical reaction in the brain driving creatures to breed" -me 2022

I had an English lesson about this topic a few months ago. I didn’t really understand it that much, but it did enlighten me a little bit. This video helped me understand love better.

I’d take justice over love anyday. You can’t love someone without being just with them but you can be just with people without ever loving them.

Reading the title my brain just went: "What is love? Baby don't hurt me, don't hurt me, no more"

Love isn't just a "chemical reaction", or whatever people try to place it as. __Love is both a feeling and a choice.__ True love is doing things you don't feel like doing, regardless of what you want. You make the conscious decision every morning/day, when you see them, to love that person. "I am going to love them, whether I have the emotion/wanting to do it or not, because this person holds more importance to me than myself." Even if the other person never sees it that way. Bringing "that" up (out of anger; twisted) would only be trying to justify your side, which is reactive jealousy. It may feel like a loss afterwards, but that's only natural. The difference is, both hatred and sorrow are uniquely divergent. You recover from sorrow overtime, but you "satisfy" yourself from hatred after you get what you believe is deserved. If you become bitter/jealous over something which they have in that case, it will only get worse. Love is not jealous. Ask yourself this.. Can I still celebrate this person, even when they have the very thing I want for myself? You can desire what they have, but jealousy has two sides. It's the idea of "I want what you have", but then the deeper aspect of jealousy is oh, "I wish you didn't have what you have". That's when jealousy gets really deep seated, deep rooted, and very severe. Anyway, most people don't see it that way, and most people choose that it should be both ways. (If it isn't, they only were in it to also be loved back, which is "Conditional" Love.) However, Yes, it should be, but true love is not dependent on both sides cooperating to the same goal. "Unconditional" Love is when you truly love the person, despite/regardless of what they can give or offer. That love is beyond desire and passion, unselfish and thoughtful, and the morality of both trust and self-sacrifice. It's both hard and unfair when it isn't reciprocated back.. After that, it's a choice. After all, knowledge leads capacitation (capacity) for choice. Ask yourself this.. 1. Can I look out for the best interest of this person, even when, they are disregarding mine? 2. Can I put up with this person over a long period of time, even if they never ever change?

Love is when you get through that experience when you finally feel your inside self like a light cold wind lighlty blows on grass in cloudy sunny day. no problems, no depression, when you just live your life by your wholesome self.

To me love is a choice. Every time I think about someone in my class and think about what if I get a crush un this person? And then I do somehow fall in love with them just by thinking about them half the time. So yeah I CAN tell myself to fall in love with one specific person and I think most people do it unconsciously too.

Bruhhhhhhh this is one of the best, most insightful, heart warming videos you've ever made I genuinely appreciate your channel

Sometimes I think of “learning to like a face,” a concept that some people will be apart of your life, whether you do desire or despise them. Learning to like a face reflects maturity and optimism, it shows your social abilities. Whenever I find myself with someone who becomes temporarily or for longer, apart of my life, I know that I must at least be able to respect them. I find respect is the key to learning to like someone.

I was just trying answer this question in my Romeo and Juliet essay. Trying to explain if it was "true love or lust."

Love..., it's basically Attachment. When one becomes attached to anything, people essentially, disappointment and suffering will inevitably ensue. So I've begun the process of detaching myself from the myriad of things and people as much as I know I can, because ultimately Life in the end is about Letting Go of everything and everyone. The only thing you can keep and will die with you are memories. So even after letting go, you'll still suffer the memories in your last hour.

Honestly, I love watching your videos because they're so eye-opening! I haven't had very much success in searching for a partner since the my last breakup. I haven't really felt the same since. But this video reminded me of what I'd felt before those relationships, and how open-minded I should be before going back into the dating world. So, thank you.

Aperture, I want to thank you for all of the videos you have made. This has really helped so many people probably more than you would think. It is amazing how a single video can help me to move on and just love myself thank you so much. -your day 1 fan

Love is a battlefield. We figured this out in the 80's.

I think there’s so many different meanings to the word “love” that we need words for the type of love it is, like the Greeks. It’s such a hard word to work around because there’s one word in which you can define in multiple ways.

This is such a life changing video. I searched “what is love” last night and this was the answer. Thank you ❤️

Baby don't hurt me don't hurt me no more 🎶

12:20 That was horrifyingly familiar, the feelings I felt throughout this video was strange in some way .

Love is simply a word. What matters is the connection the word implies. ❤️🌹🏴‍☠️

"What is grief, if not love preserving?" So pretty much happy days, some sad days, but mostly happy

It's always the truth that we aren't wrong, not even once. The way @Aperture explained, we are always in love, and I believe we do, even in afterlife, we get the Love we once had when we were full of life, and that's true. Have a good life y'all. 🖤

i’ve been binge watching your vids for hours then suddenly this? not complaining, another high quality vid

Nothing beats his chill voice

It all starts and it all ends….with you I love how some videos end with the most wonderful last words

I may not agree with everything he says but this video is beautiful! The way I see it is that love is simply a neurological phenomena.

This video is amazing, i may not be feeling the best these days, but i still love your videos. This video has a great lesson in it and makes me think about things a little bit more positive or just makes me wonder about things like these without negative thoughts. So thanks your videos make me smile :D

You know what I love? This channel. Keep doing amazing content, I'm glad I found you

Bro, you are a great writer, I mean it your videos are just the right combination of inspiring and thoughtful

Love is a feeling. It’s an abstract sensation. Probably some form of abstract neuronal structure. I think emotions in general are kind of like how thinking is talking without triggering vocal muscles. However, it’s even lower layers of neurons than that, like phantom limb syndrome without ever having limbs to begin with (so it’s abstract). I think there’s something more to it than just physical sensations though, some spiritual or metaphysics thing that we don’t understand yet.

Regardless of your take on love, it is pretty incredible that it exists in the universe and be able to experience and observe how powerful it is.

I had like a therapy session in my head while watching this video and cried few times. This was an amazing video, it opened my mind alot more.

THE ANSWER OF THIS QUESTION IS EASY! ONE SIMPLE WORD ANSWER IT. WHAT IS LOVE? LOVE IS GIVE. GIVE WITHOUT EXPECTATIONS TO HAVE NOTHING IN RETURN. LOVE IS DONATION. LOVE IS SACRIFICE. LOVE IS GIVE! THIS IS THE DEFINITION OF LOVE. EVERYTHING ELSE ISNT LOVE. LOVE IS GIVE!!!!!!!!!! UNCONDICIONALITY. WHAT IS LOVE? LOVE IS GIVE.

“ I hate to break it to you Morty, but what people call love is just a chemical reaction that compels animals to breed. It hits hard Morty, then it slowly fades leaving you stranded in a failing marriage. “ Rick Sanchez

For those who struggle finding self-love, try to think it the other way around: since you are able to love others, you can love yourself too. I personally find the "if you don't love yourself you won't be able to fully love others" a dangerous trap. One can purposely avoid loving relationships because of it, getting even lonelier.

Made me cry towards the end. Your videos are beautiful. Keep doing what you are doing

Ahh, the story of love ❤️... the most profound of feelings. Feelings that transcend the sense of self-preservation, logic, and reasoning.

From a certian Christian priest: "Love is discrimination". You simply choosed to loved certain someone over others.

After understanding what love is .. i think I'm in love With this channel ❤️

As someone who identifies himself on the ace spectrum, this video wax important. A nice insight. Helps me appreciate the people around me more

What is love? Love is the feeling you feel when you listen to a voice with no face describe the feeling you are feeling towards this channel.

Love is something we all want yet don't at the same time

thank you man, this video literally had me in tears

Thanks so much aperture for all u have done for me, I truly do love u guys.

I think I just found one of my new favorite youtubers I’m binging these thing holy crap these videos are amazing

Love also has various levels. I love my sister different to how I love my wife different to how I love my job.. ... Unless you live in Alabama.

Can't believe you inspired me to write a piece expounding on the term love and here you are talking about it. Big coincidence but most of all keep going💯

That was one of the best written videos I've seen on the internet. Thank you

I feel like over the past decade the world has gone insane, and everyone is so ideologically possessed or deeply indoctrinated and entrenched in systems of mass manupulation (whether organic or artificial), and I worry now I will never find anyone who I can truly connect with on a spiritual level again. I have had to learn to find love within myself, and creativity; which is the only thing that can make me feel as alive as Love itself did.

baby don’t hurt me

i literally wait every week for this

this channel such an inspiration to me, I want to do something like this because I just love this type of videos so much and there isn't many of them like this.

U SHOWED ME TODAY THE WAY TO LOVE MYSELF ! THANK U

I'm heavily conflicted. I'm a married husband and father for these past 8 years. But recently have fallen head over heels for someone else. I've developed a sense of passion for this person, and I'm conflicted. Love is a beautiful thing. But as well can be costly.

TO THE CHANNEL HOST: YOU MADE A GREAT AND IMPRESSIVE VIDEO!!! Great topic and really well done. I am 67 years old and I have fallen in love several times in my lifetime. I don‘t think it‘s a choice at all in the initial and middles stages. It‘s outta control stuff, really. The serious ones were cases that I describe (for me) as an illness. An emotional illness that causes one to go mad and do things that aren‘t rational. I sold everything I owned and moved to Egypt 17 years ago. We are still together, I still live in Egypt. Regrets? Some. Sometimes. But, it turned into a destiny. A strange thing, this thing called love.

'Billy' Eduard Albert Meier (BEAM): "Love is the absolute certainty of co-living and co-existing in everything that exists: In fauna and flora, in fellow human beings, in every material and spiritual life form of any kind, and in the existence of the entire universe and beyond."

this guy really makes me overthink over even the simplest things in life.

love is me watching this video🥰

I know I love this channel. ♥️

This is such a wholesome lovely video that covers the topic from different angles. Thank you

When he said; ‘but not your phone charger’ I snorted

4:46 "sometimes love is casual" other times it is ranked edit: maybe it is formal love

Food is love, and love is food 😂 I love food, "East or West food is ✨BEST✨"

Lust is wanting for one’s self …. love is wanting for the other.
