To me, romantic love entails a feeling of complete safety and comfort with someone. The kind of closeness where you would gladly share everything, the highs and lows alike, because you effectively become one. Where hanging out in silence isn't awkward, because their presence is all you need, but you *really* need it. It's difficult to explain, even as someone who has experienced it plenty of times lol But I hope this helps in some way. o7
