Pointless biography revealing intimate details (4,4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

love life

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'intimate details' is the definition.
I don't know anything about this answer so I can't tell whether this works.

'pointless biography' is the wordplay.
'pointless' becomes 'love' (I can't justify this - if you can you should believe this answer much more).
'biography' becomes 'life' (synonyms).
'love'+'life'='LOVE LIFE'

'revealing' acts as a link.

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for love life that I've seen before include "Romantic activity?" , "Sex" , "Amorous experiences" .)

I've seen this clue in The Guardian.
