True Love may be a real thing after all

I love love. And yes, it's absolutely a real thing.

Congrats, Sharkie!

 

Giving an account of the last 38 years will overload the HF server. LOL.

 

My current girlfriend. We've been in a relationship together for almost 5 years now and, man, she's quite something.

 

I'm not in love with anyone, and don't really want to be. I'm kind of at the post-romantic stage.

 

We started dating at 15 and I fell hopelessly in love with her before we were 18. We married at 22, and our love is still strong after 40 years of marriage.

 

I finally learned to let myself love and got married last year. We were good friends for a few years and then he asked to take it further. So I totally believe in true love but you have to open your heart up and let yourself experience it. It’s scary to do that.

 

Once you've seen the look of love in anothers eyes--you know that it CAN be real. The song was right on.

 

I’m glad you posted this because there seems to be this idea pushed in society that you must find love. Endless dating site commercials and marriage shows making it sound like if you’re not in a relationship, then something is wrong with you and that isn’t true.

 

I used to have the biggest crush on this girl Lacy. I thought I loved her, but it was just a passing thing. I was never in a relationship with her, but we hooked up. Twice!

 

Staying in love takes some effort. And it takes keeping it in your pants, too...

 

I used to believe in true love but these days I'm no longer sure. Certainly hope you lovesick people are right. Don't want to spend the rest of my life completely alone. Ok I'll leave it there don't want to drag your happy hearts down

 

I dont believe in "true love" as that sort of implies there's only one person out there for each of us and I dont really believe that. But I do believe in falling in love and making a choice to remain committed to that person and in putting in the time and energy it takes to make a relationship work

 

I think the problem is the popular notion of "true love = one specific partner", but I believe true love can involve more than one partner. It totally depends on each individual and situation. You just love, and if you ask your heart whether that love is true or not, and if the answer is "yes", then it's true love.

That said, it does help if one knows the difference between "love" and "infatuation". I believe we need both in life, but whereas infatuation may cause us to lose control of our emotions and/or actions, love may drive us to remain in control. Infatuation causes us to do stupid things, while love keeps us calm.

But hey, that's just been my experience. There's really no right type of love, I don't think. Love is love, and it's good to love.

 

i'm happy with the idea of finding and nurturing a healthy, positive relationship that includes love, like, adventure, wonder. All of those things are true.

 

But, think of this way. You loved with all you have, you left nothing out in your relationship. It didn't work out, but at least you felt love. Gave love. That counts for something.

 

The differnce between true love & herpes, is herpes last forever.

 

Love is a type of cancer
