Books for someone that's never experienced love before and wants to know what it feels like?

Sorry anon, but books won't replace it, that's like asking books to replace feeling what its like to eat.

You can't feel affection through a book. "Love" isn't real and humping the corner of your bed like a dog is the same thing as "Love".

Honestly a fair amount of Haruki Murakami novels and story emanate of feeling, while not exactly love, of companionship and human relationships, especially romantic, if not exclusively most times. For accuracy, I can’t say, for I’m in the same position as you, but they’re nice escapism, if that’s what you want. ‘The Wind-Up Bird Chronicle’, ‘A Wild Sheep Chase’, and the some of the short stories of ‘After the Quake’ and ‘Blind Willow, Sleeping Woman’ come to mind.

Also I felt Ishiguro’s novel ‘Never Let Me Go’ emanated a similar feeling, but frankly that’s not really the novel’s main strengths.

In my opinion, love is the only experience that did not disappoint me in experiencing it. All other acts, all other events of life never lived up to the image I built in my mind, but love surpassed it. Of course, love will always disappoint you in the end, but it will never disappoint you in the moment.
