Is there the emotion love without the perception of beauty? Is there the perception of beauty without the emotion of love? Are beauty and love one? Or how are they related?

Opinions?

Apparently people are able to fall in love over the internet, a concept which I am unable to grasp. Are we talking about beauty on a physical level, or are you also refering to the beauty of the soul?
What is beauty anyway?
If it is really in the eye of the beholder, then aren't we all beautiful?
If love and beauty are interelated, doesn't it work both ways.
A feeling of love for someone means we see their beauty?

I can appreciate the beauty of a thoroughbred without falling in love.

I'm talking about love in a general sense. And beauty in a general sense. Different kinds of love and beauty. When you say "appreciate" the beauty, that's maybe an acceptable form of love, and the sort of thing I'm talking about.

Is there the emotion love without the perception of beauty? Is there the perception of beauty without the emotion of love? Are beauty and love one? Or how are they related?

'Beauty is truth, truth beauty,-that is all Ye know on earth, and all ye need to know.' John Keats
love is beauty and beauty is truth, and that is why in the beauty of a flower we can see the truth of the universe. Gautama Buddha

Beauty and love seem closely related to pleasure.

I think love and beauty can both be described as 'a recognition of unity'.

I think pleasure is a different thing all together, and I don't think love and beauty are pleasures. You can say 'i love you so much it hurts', and people who follow love often experience alot of pain, you can say 'something is so beautiful it hurts', but can you say, 'something is so pleasant it hurts'?

I think love and beauty can both be described as different aspects of perhaps a 'will-to-unity' to coin a phrase.

I had not a dispute but a disquisition with Dilke, on various subjects; several things dovetailed in my mind, & at once it struck me, what quality went to form a Man of Achievement especially in literature & which Shakespeare possessed so enormously - I mean Negative Capability, that is when man is capable of being in uncertainties, Mysteries, doubts without any irritable reaching after fact & reason - Colerdige, for instance, would let go by a fine isolated verisimilitude caught from the Penetralium of mystery, from being incapbable of remaining content with half knowledge. This pursued through Volumes would perhaps take us no further than this, that with a great poet the sense of Beauty overcomes every other consideration, or rather obliterates every other consideration.
