Some progress, nothing concrete!

I found a few sites that analyze love from a philosophical perspective:

Kenny Pearce's blog
Stanford Encyclopedia of philosophy

The first of these sets out to prove the statement: Love is a deeply internalized belief in the intrinsic value of the beloved.

The second is more like a textbook chapter that lists the various "forms" of love: philia, eros, agape.

A confession: I have not read either of those two through. I thought they might help me answer my question, but then I realized that the answer to my question should not be based on what philosophers surmise! I ought to think on my own and come up with something for myself!

I believe emotions quite often do not subscribe to laws of logic and "rationality" (this word in quotes because I am unable to define it), hence a logical analysis of love seems contradictory.

I am going to end the post here partly in order to explain the title, but really because everything that I tried to write after this either did not make sense or was not right for this post!
