well i too agree love is an action. or, that love manifests itself in actions. you can tell someone you love them all you want, and really feel it, but if you do everything that contradicts that feeling (whether conscious or not), you aren't exactly expressing love. how then would one trust that you 'love' him/her? love needs to be expressed or it will not grow. you must nurture love. if you do not express love, how can you make sure it's there, besides "trust" in the other person? but is not trust built up based on the actions (evidence) that determine love is there? love is not tangible so you have to show it. and if love is a feeling (which i think it's more than that), those actions should come naturally, to most people.
