1. To love you and to be loved by you is my happiness.
2. To love you and to be loved by you are my happiness.

infinitive = to love
gerund = loving (The gerund often is used as a noun; most end in -ing
between IS (singular) and ARE (plural) = To love you is BUT to love you (1 thing) AND to be loved (2nd thing) = ARE
Definitely #3 (is) and not #4 because "working and playing" is considered one entity here = (indefinite "that") IS
