Thanks for another amazing topic to write about. Loveeee, very very cool concept. That word love is very very broad, I will be sharing my views on this topic in this post.
Love - Describe what love is in your own words. How do you express it? How do you know that you are loved?
Describe what love is in your own words.
I will describe love to be caring, patience, and kind as we have in the Holy Book. Love can be a subjective and difficult thing when it is one-sided and every individual has his or her own definition of what love means to him or her.
For me, love is a deep feeling one has for another. When one is in love he cares so much for his partner's happiness, total well-being along with sacrificial offers.

How do you express it? How do you know that you are loved?
The truth is that expressing love to someone can come in so many forms based on an individual. There are different ways of demonstrating love without going straight. It can be in this following ways:
Showing kindness to someone we love and helping in any way we can. Also, spending time together and engaging in conversation can send a signal and gestures are also ways to inform one non verbally that one has another in mind.
Knowing that I am loved is when someone continues to show the same affection towards me. Also showing support and being there for me can give me a sense of being loved by someone. Understanding that some feelings require time to develop will help the person who fell in love first to exercise patience for the other to feel same. While one falls in love first it could take some times for the other to feel, know and reciprocate.
