Abstract

Love, in general, can be described as a meaningful thing and a basic need of every human being. Love can make someone feel safe or depressed if they do not have it. There is a correlation between loving, to be loved, and happiness. In Buginese culture for men, one of their ways to prove their love is ready to propose and give mahr with a large amount of uang panai’ when they get married. This study aims to identify Buginese men’s thoughts about love. The participants in this study are 100 male college students who are in a relationship, but not married yet. The Love Thought was collected using Love Scale based on Rubin. The sample was taken by using purposive sampling. The result of this study shows that the intense feeling of Buginese men about their love for their partner tends to be in a high category. One of the factors is the mutual interest that they feel for their partner.
