MYM - What Is Love?

What is love? The highest, most blissful state known to humans, or something close to a mental illness? What are the different types of love? Obsessive, possessive, ‘I must have her/him’  love; Infatuation and ‘in love’, which have similarities to certain kinds of mental illness. Why can love become possessive and turn ugly? What about selfless love, where you just want what is best for the other person (as long as it’s also what’s best for you).
