Traditionally, when we say "I am in love with you", we are actually saying that we are in love with ourselves, because being in love with someone involves the other person being present in the same space as we are - at the same time. If they are not, then it simply isn't true that you're in love with them. Love is a physical state. Not a state that is physiological in origin, like a condition, a temperament or an emotion; but an environment which exerts a physical influence upon anyone and anything within it.
Being in love with someone is dependent upon the two of you inhabiting the same space and same time. If the object of our desire is not present in the same space and time as us then we are merely projecting those desires into the ether, into an empty void where only we alone reside with a mirage of our object of affections. If we are ever able to see another's spirit when in love, then that in itself is confirmation that you truly are - for love is the environment which makes it possible for us to do so.
Love is the shared space and time in which essences are able to meet and speak to each other.
