Yes, I believe in love. Actual love though, I have only recently learned the difference, as in what love really is, rather than the lust, infatuation, or obsession we often mistake as being love. While I do think attraction is obviously important, love is something you have to work at, and sometimes it's hard and nervewracking and you have to make compromises you don't like but when you have it, and give it, to someone who gives it back to you and you are equals in that, then it is the best thing in the world. I've also had a lot of men who've claimed to love me, and it's the same story, obsession, infatuation, lust. To have someone love you for you, rather than making you into an idea, when they are seeing you as a real person,it's awesome.
