Can you tell me what love is?

I have a friend, YES, a friend. When I say friend, I honestly do mean friend. The first guy she loved lived far away and they met twice at a religious camp. I didn't think it was love because they met and hooked up, that was all. The second guy she loved was somebody that she dated for 6 months. When she told me she loved him, it was somewhat more believable. At least she dated him and didn't only hook up. She just came back from a month long trip to a foreign country and came back claiming to be in love with a guy who she met there. Only problem is that he lives in another state so now they are far from one another. To me, this is a very warped idea of love. It seems like people in my generation (early 90's kids) are SO quick to throw out the word "love" just because they bond with someone. They don't even get to know the person that well yet they claim to "love" them. Anyone else feel this way? Thoughts?
