  1. Love means that you care for one another. If you love someone you should love them for who they are and you shouldn't try to change them. When you say I love you, it means that you care for the person you are saying I love you to. When you say I love you you should mean it. The message that Prince Ea is trying to send is that you need to know how to love because if you don't, you will destroy it. That means if you aren't loving someone out of caring and you are just trying to control them, you are destroying love.

  2. I think what Prince Ea is trying to say is love is not about loving someone that your in a relationship in or loving your family, Love is about caring about people that care/love you. Lets say your in a committed relationship and you LOVE them but then you break up with them, you don't love them, you hate a despise them like nothing happened. Personally I think that people shouldn't pick and choose who they love they should love them for who they are and not what you think they are.

    1. Another thing is,Is you don't pick who your friends with your friends with everyone even if you don't have a good connection with them. If your not "friends" anymore and they "break up" with you I think there looking for attention, But they also may be because they came from a family they didn't accept them for who they are.

  3. It means you actually have feelings for each other and there is no anger or hatred towards each other. He is trying to say in order to love we have to accept our flaws in order to accept others and learn to love ourselves to love others.

  4. Love means when you care and have a passion for someone, you can love someone who doesn't love you back. When a person says "I love you" it means they care about you, unless they're fake and don't really mean it and they just want to be in a relationship. I don't get what his point is, he is just talking about love, I don't need to hear him talk about love.

  5. If you love something, don't set it free. Give it the option to be free. Love is not meant to be a selfish thing, it is a growing thing that can flourish as long as you can love yourself. Just like Prince Ea says, "In order to love others we have to at first love ourselves." We can't just fall in love we have to "let love fall into you." - Prince Ea.

  10. I think that love is not real. People make love out to be this great thing, but its really just a bunch of chemicals acting in your brain. The guy in the video thinks he knows everything there is to know about love but he doesn't.

  11. Love means to care for who you are and who others are as human beings are.

  12. What Prince Ea is saying is that loving someone is respecting someone and their decisions to the point where its not a possessive and attached relationship. And it comes down to who they are, not who's boyfriend/girlfriend they are.

  13. What I think Prince Ea is trying to say is that love isn't always what's on facebook or what people make up. I guess love can mean lots of different things it just depends on what you've experienced or what people have told you. I think love is when you really care about someone, but it can be different though.

  14. I think that prince Ea is saying that love only works when you accept yourself

  15. What Prince Ea was trying to say was that if some you believe you own someone who you say you love and are in a relationship with is selfish. Also I think love is when you deeply care about someone.

  16. Love, according to Prince Ea, means you should love yourself. Loving yourself will allow you to love other people, and won't be angry when someone stops loving you. When someone says, "I love you," it means they like someone for who they are and accept their flaws. Prince Ea is trying to send the message that love feels good, but we don't really know what it is.

  17. The message Prince Ea is trying to send is you can't love someone else if you don't love yourself first. He also says when you break up with someone you love you automatically don't love them anymore and your feelings turn to hatred which is is wrong in my opinion, just because you stop seeing this person doesn't mean you don't care about them anymore.

  18. to me love means that a person would love another person for who they are and that they would be together because they love everything about each other.

    prince ea is saying love somebody and actually love. do not love somebody because they have beautiful hair or they have a voice that is sweet.

  25. The video inspires people and helps relationships

  26. Love is caring about someone, and accepting them for who they are. Prince Ea says you need to first love yourself before you can love someone else.

  27. Love means that you accept people for what they are and what they will become. Some people think its a big deal to love or be in love but there is loving and caring everywhere not just for one significant other.

  28. Love means that you really care, trust, and feel important to each other. It means that you can't love someone else, until you love yourself first. If you truly love someone, then you want more to your relationship and you truly want a future.

  29. Love is when you have strong feelings for someone, care for them and would do anything to make sure they are happy. Sometimes when a person says "I love you", it doesn't mean anything bc it is easier to say you love them to show you love them. Prince ea is trying to say that people need to start using love more as a feeling and not just another word in there vocabulary.

  30. The video makes you rethink the meaning of the word love. He shows how everyone wants to be loved but loved in different ways.

  31. Love is when you care about someone, even if you two are not together. Prince Ea said that you need to be able to love yourself before you can love someone else.

  33. While watching this video it really made me think, what exactly can be considered "love"? Is it the loyalty between a significant other, the compassion between family members, the bond between friends or the confidence one can hold within themselves? My point being, Prince Ea mentions, you can't love someone else until you learn to love yourself, I truly believe in that statement. Honestly, this question is difficult to answer because 'love' can mean different things to various types of people. Personally to me, I believe that love is a strong word, I believe that when you're in a commitment you should not use the word "love" loosely. As we've noticed the word is thrown around this generation as if it has no meaning to it at all. When really love, is the most precious thing you can experience in and out of relationships. According to the dictionary love is "an intense feeling of deep affection". In this generation I truly believe that love and lust are often mixed and many are mistaken for lust, not love.
