What is true love? is it when you are totally at peace together or is it when you drive each other mad and cant live without that person? is it your angel because even angels have their demons. Is true love trying to get your love back even though they have moved on to someone else? something in you tells you to not give up. You will never find someone who makes you feel even better. Something in you can’t phantom the thought of them being with anyone else. You would do anything for her. It breaks your heart when you don’t see her feeling the same way. Something tells you to keep pushing, maybe she will begin to remember your touch. Something in you tells you you cant keep going back but you rather put a gun to your head then to lose the one you love. This love is toxic. But if you are not willing to die for the one you love, then is it true love? she wants you to come out to see her. You know you shouldn’t as her new bf would not like it. Still you decide to go because you love her. You want her back. You think oh man she really loves me i need to go see her. You have butterflies in your stomach, you cant wait to touch her. You didn’t think this walk down the corner will end your life, but it does. It has. She sets you up and you are left on the street with not only a broken heart but you leave behind broken pieces. I think you were already dead before you took that walk. Its like you knew what was coming. You loved her but your love was deadly. How do you know when its true love? Do you now see that he loved you, because he died for you.

just my thoughts today...

Let's start with the obvious. Sexual desire is not love. Love should be felt even after you had more than enough sex.

Love is the feeling of being happy, at home, at the centre of the universe with someone. Not completely comfortable, though. Waking up with the feeling that the day is exciting and cannot wait to see, hear and touch the person you love. Planning the next adventure with them.

Love is not and cannot be a constant feeling. There will be days when you don't feel it and that is fine. But it should be felt as often as you need it. And it should be reciprocated. Unrequited love, not giving up on someone who has bad chemistry with you is ego, not love.

It's a choice. You choose to cultivate love continuously. That's what makes it true, it perserveres.

Everything else is extra. Tailored to an individuals taste or reflecting what's important to them at that point in their life.
Love is not a choice!!!

What are you talking about!

Like I would choose to suffer!!!

True love is when you not pushing.

It just something you wrapped into and living in this wrapper.

I think to answer what is true love you have to think - is there alternative like love untrue? Or love not SO true...

Queation itself shouldn't exist. Because there is love. Period.

The only thing I've discovered is that everyone is feeling love differently according to their personality.

Some will take care of you in sickness and others packing and move to hotel room.

But try to tell them - you don't love your partner. You love yourself more - and they will scratch your eyes out! So they believe in this kind of love.

It's true to them.

My husband truly believes that he loves me! I serve his needs. But he doesn't give a damn about mine! But he believes if he says he loves me - that's what it is. NO! If I don't feel it - it's not. He though loves himself plenty!

So question is invalid my dear.

I agree with a middle part but totally disagree with top and bottom!

What's more than enough sex?

At certain time? By certain age?

Per day?

And love IS a constant feeling. For me anyway. You can be different.

And I can probably justify it by the length of it.

Ask yer mom.

That whole parent/child/brother/sister/family

thing is true love-- it defies explanation.

People who, on some days, we'd like to throw

from a bridge... BUT WE DON'T o.O

In fact, you would sooner throw yourself from

that brigde than see them hurt.

If that's not love then... lol



Maybe when you find someone who comes as

close to this as humanly possible, and you're

pretty sure they feel the same about you

(see @Starwars - Mondays), it would be a good

idea to never let them go.

It's the little things like that, that really aren't so

little at all... defies explanation.

🙂

There's tons of theories on this subject, tho - it's enough to use common sense, like...

If the love you have for one another - can stand the test of time, if it's someone with whom you can have a good time, but - also someone with whom you can surpass any challenge/hardship - without breaking apart (which in turn - strengthens the bond), then... it's safe to say - that you found true love... 🤗

You can find this hope/expectancy in marriage vows:

Again, common sense: everything that's true/real in this world - can stand the test of time... while illusions (something apparently real) - always fall apart (it's just a matter of time).

For me it's comfort, feels like home. you will fight but you grow closer not apart after fighting. Feels like warm fuzzy slippers and the softest blanket you just want to cocoon yourself and them with. You want to see them or talk to them constantly but still do your own thing. lol yes it's a bunch of contradiction but trying to explain what love is, is hard, it's a constant changing and evolving thing. Discovering who and what the other is about and you love them because of their flaws. Hope that makes sense.

Reminds me of Hot cocoa on a cold night. lol my grandmother. always, always made the best hot cocoa!

Love sneaks up on you.

It's a feeling of home and acceptance. You feel accepted for who you are, and you accept the other person completely. Yes, they have annoying habbits and some wierd traits that on a bad day makes you wanna throw things at them - but you wouldn't change them. That's why we're able to let someone we love go if it's what's best for them - even if it hurts us.

Love happens when you make a choice to keep a person in your life.

Love sneaks up on you because you made it happen.

Then there's the parent-child love which is a complete different animal, well, more intense for sure.
