gone.

a profoundly tender, passionate affection for another person,a feeling of warm personal attachment or deep affection, as for a parent, child, or friend, sexual passion or desire, a person toward whom love is felt; beloved person (sweetheart).
So do we need love?
The answer to that is yes, if we didnt the world wouln't go round and mankind would eventually die out, i guess.
So the answer to that is we need love and love needs us, we might not mean it if we say it but we know its real when we feel it :')
