Love is a word that is over used in America. EVERYBODY believes they are in love with EVERYONE they meet. Love is something that is supposed to be unwavering. But one minute someone can claim to love you and then the next they want nothing to do with you. That's not love. My favorite part of the Bible is 1 Corinthians because it describes what love truly is:
Love is patient,
love is kind.
It does not envy,
it does not boast,
it is not proud.
It is not rude,
it is not self-seeking,
it is not easily angered,
it keeps no record of wrongs.
Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth.
It always protects,
always trusts,
always hopes,
always perseveres.
Love never fails.

If you are asking is love better here... nope, nice concept tho'
It also depends upon what type of love you are speaking.
Love for your fellow man - We do not practice in the manner that we should. There is no comparisonon on this earth for what Jesus has done.
There is the fleshly love(lust) - With your partner or not but with regards to the latter unfortunately, there is a lot of that here.
Love for a family member - In normal circumstances there is nothing like family because that is all most people have. But once corrupted it makes you a guest on Dr. Phil or 20/20.
