Do you feel love?

i am not talking about the word love ,which people tend to use.loosely and they will meet a person once or twice and say i think i love him/her.

i am talking about intense feelings for a person which we symbolize and verbalize as love ,as oppose to to using the mere word “love” without presence of feelings or any kind of emotions to go with it.

like you might think that you love someone without feeling anything for him/her ,just because it is so in thing and fashionable thing to do.especially on Valentine’s eve,when you are in desperate need of a partner ,so that you don’t feel left out.

i think for me i have to feel love and intense emotions towards someone first ,so as to able to verbalize my feelings towards her as love ,rather than telling her that i love her without being clear about my emotions or feelings towards her .
