What does Love mean to you?

What does Love mean to you? Love means to me Doing hard things.
I thought about this for a while and the first thing that popped up in my head was Honesty, Trust, Loyalty, Faithfulness. How do you know when you are getting these things from the person you are with? How do you know and trust that they are only with you? 
I looked back over my life and realized that i have known true love and that is a feel like no other. It is like you are not in your body and all you do is think of the other person. Some say when your young you don't know enough about love to really love but i honestly disagree. When you are with a guy and you are willing to take the bs that he gives you then you know that you are truly in love. When you will take up for him and have his back no matter what, then thats another sign. When you could see your self being there for him when he is not there for you, my dear i must say thats the man of your dreams. Love is a funny emotion, because it can make you do things you never thought you would do. I say this because i have done things that mad me question myself. When i was in love i did everything for this man. I cleaned, cooked, helped with his family, and i also put up with the lie's that he told me. I cared more for this man then i did myself and i know thats bad, but when i am in love and it is true thats how i am. I make sure my guy is happy at all time.My family told me that he was changing me, and that i was not being myself. They told me that i let his issues come before my own issues.
Well after years of doing hard things, I woke up one day and was not In Love with him anymore. It took something major to happen but i realized that we were not meant to be. Which was crazy since i never thought that would happen since we had some amazing time together and he would hold me down when he could also.Leaving him was the worst thing I have ever had to do in my life. I still do love him as a friend. We turned out to be completely different people. I just wonder if there are guys out there who are willing to love the same way. 
He loved me, and i can honestly say that, but i was never number 1. I made him number 1 and i was number 2. I let him into my heart to the point of not caring anything else. I was number 1 when he wanted something from me but when i needed him the most he was not there. I don't regret loving him, because he helped me become the woman i am. We shared a loss that hit us both and that will always connect us.
Can you trust your love for someone 100%? Can you trust them enough to give it back you? I would love for that to happen to me, but the way the world/life is nothing is promised and you never know who you are dating. So tell me how you feel about Love and Relationships? 
Love is this amazing feeling it is something that can be great, but if not taken care of it can cut like a knife. Everyone should have a chance to feel what real love is. I know that for me, i have felt it and i can't wait to feel it again. Relationships are hard but if you don't work on them how are they going to work.
So, if you are dating someone let them know how you feel, tell them what's in your heart.
