Like the word "cool" is made to define as something or someone popular. But it still about temperature. Or when something is "the sh!t", again, something or someone popular, but still means "feces".
You may be influencing the definition, doesn't make it true.
People stay in bad relationships because they think they're in love. If what I said were a cliché, perhaps people would get it in their heads what the difference is. Love is not a feeling, it's a state of mind. It's not what you feel in your pants.
