How I did it: After going through all sorts of silly relationships that had meaning at the time, I realized that the theory of 'love' is a fabricated Hallmark emotion made to make you show affection both physically and by buying things.

To love, all you need to do is be, and the rest should come to you. Give lots of hugs. Make people cards and cookies. Spend time with friends, and keep spending time with them, and all of you will just love on each other whenever you need it. (This also works for relationships. Girls like cards and hugs.)

Lessons & tips: -Be yourself.
-Don't half-ass it. Treat others the way you want to be treated. Or better, for that matter.
-Even if you really don't want to talk to someone, don't ignore them forever, or they'll give up on you, and they won't want your love.

-Love isn't about relationships between two people; Love is a mindset. To love people, you have to be ready to love. When you're ready to love, you'll know, because it'll have happened.
