lurve
Cutesy romantic feeling
Lurve is a playful or ironic respelling of love, often used to mock romantic sentimentality or to express affection in a self-aware, joking way: I lurve you so much!
The exaggerated spelling signals that the speaker isn't being entirely serious, or is poking fun at overwrought declarations of love.
