What defines love????

I am so sorry that you feel this way Renn.
Yes, human nature can lead us all into temptation.
It is avoiding those situations that can tempt us all.

 

I am too CG, I guess that’s why I have a hard time trusting people. I’ve been burned a few times in this area and I know my current viewpoint will most likely hinder my chances of finding true love.

I only have sarcasm as a response (not directed at you)... that is, to do as the locals do, don’t worry about it and have fun. Pretty self destructive I know but it’s my way of coping, go figure.

 

It takes time to heal a broken heart.
But better to wait than jump out of the frying pan into the fire.
I like you and wish you all the best always. X

 

I like you too CG and I have nothing but respect for you.

 

I hope you find love soon. x

 

Thank you, - r.

 

Just take your time.
Often a best friend becomes your ideal partner. X

 

Love is the ability to care for another with no expectations of it being reciprocated.

 

I feel the same. It is part of our vows, till death do us part.

 

Vows to each other implies reciprocation, though.

You got it. Giving unconditionally. xxx

Lol I gave something to you a while back.

 

Candy you help others.

 

Many that is true.

 

'What defines love' is a beautiful phrase or question, have lots of thoughts about it, just don't know what to say about it. It can be so huge, but also be so intimate. I'll come back to it.

 

Maybe it is something different for each of us??? xxx

 

Our story is kind of unconventional, but I like talking about it. I met my husband in my early 20s (he's 5 years older). We hit it off instantly. We spent the night together just talking and laughing and some kissing. We were only together for 6 months and I went to Colorado for school. We split up and I was really heartbroken over it. I never met anyone like him and I still thought about him a lot over literally about 10 years before we reconnected in 2017 and got back together.
I got pregnant just a couple months later, we were married some time after that and now we have a family together. I've never been happier. I felt a real connection the night I met him (at a bar of al places - but a cool one!). We just understand each other and a lot of aspects of our personalities compliment each other well. I'm more fiery at times and he's very calm. We also have a lot of core things in common and there is just a level of understanding with him that I have never even come close to with anyone else. Bonus, he makes me laugh. Hard to explain but I have never felt completely willing and able to give myself to another person in my life. For me it's just a feeling I can't fully put into words.

 

I think emotion defines love. And I don't know if love is uniquely human. Our pets have emotional ties with us. We see dogs wag their tails. Cats rub against our leg. But I think the human capacity for thought truly allows us to elaborate. And our imagination knows no bounds...
