I just want to know..does anything like true love really exist in today's era! If yes..then what it is like? How people behave when in true love? Can true love be one sided?



Posted by CappedoffI know..still I posted this question..because i really want to know..can it be one sided..if a person cannot control his anger and ..call you names and later apologises but still repeats it again and again & still claims to love you ..can it be love? help me out..your speech would definitely help me..if you get time..do explain 😢
I could go into a whole speech about what love is ... but your avatar pic pretty much sums it up.

Posted by beautifuldiasterYes..even I feel so and I can write a book on it(the way I see love)..but I just want to know in general.. if you really love someone and you are getting affected by their behaviour/anger issues/ego issues which is not good ..still you give them many chances and they promise to change for you but never do! Then you should continue AS YOU LOVE THEM..or you should walk..BECAUSE THEY DO NOT CARE ABOUT HOW YOU FEEL and always blames their anger and say "sorry" in the end..at that point what should you do!!Posted by CappedoffThis.

Love is not the fairy tale I think you have in mind. Its messy and difficult and you have to work on it everyday.
I could write a thesis on the theory surrounding love and I still wouldn't be able to figure it out or give it the just credit it so deserves.click to expand

You are thinking that because you love someone you could change them, that love doesn't quit on the other, am I right?
No one can tell you what to do, but from where I sit i would most definitely walk, and I'd have done it a long time ago.
The first time I'm called a degrading name, the first time anger is expressed in an unhealthy manner... these are reasons to put your foot down and stop the behavior before escalation.
The first time, the FIRST, it's all about where two people draw boundaries. You openly communicate in a way that each of you understand what lines are to never be crossed. By staying in those lines you are loving them in a sense.
Whomever this is, they need to consult therapy and I'd advise you suggest it and work on seeing how valuable and worthy you are, so the next time you're in this position, you can stand up for yourself before someone has to apologize.
How can a person be sorry if they keep repeating it? Actions speak louder. Bump that.
















Posted by beautifuldiasterYes dear..you are right..thank you for your motivating words..Posted by irisOf course.
And whatever I did and faced..that's because somewhere I had a hope that we can have a happy life together..but I guess god has some other plans
This is a difficult time
The best way to make God laugh is to tell him our plans.
There are silver linings in every heartache. Always. Time and time again your failures will open the door to success. Have the courage to walk through the open door.
You are a woman of faith. Me too.click to expand



Posted by beautifuldiasteryour definition of true love is exactly what I feel it should be like! But..thenPosted by busyeyes88Hm. I like this. A lot.
Sacrifice. Unconditional acceptance. To put the other person's needs before your own. To give souly and totally without expectation. To give freely without receiving. You carry the person in yr heart forever. I am venus in pisces and Saturn in pisces.
Unquestionable loyalty, being a team that instills inspiration, sacrificing for the others well being despite your selfish wants, doing what is needed always, and giving to give and not for reciprocation..
Venus Scorpio Libra moon
Why'd you chose Venus and Saturn busy? Just curious as usual.click to expand


Posted by beautifuldiasterthanks I get it now! Told you..nowadays I tend to relate everything to my situation.Posted by irisThe giving without expecting anything in return is in terms of gifts, back massages, cooking dinner..
Giving what he wants from me..and nothing in return except getting hurt ..THAT'S WHY I STRONGLY BELIEVE TRUE LOVE CAN NEVER BE ONE SIDED!! If you get to see and notice and feel how much your partner is trying to put an effort to carry on things and continue.. just to be with you..little appreciation / reciprocation is expected..you expect from the ones you love..not from strangers or your other acquaintances! Little expectation as a reward of your efforts and love keeps the relation healthy..that's how I feel 😢
Correct me if i am taking it in some other way!
Now days I end up relating everything to my situation! :-\
You wouldn't cook him dinner and after he eats it, tell him," well now you have to take me shopping cause I fed you!" The mentality behind this means that when you do something nice, it is done because you want to.
In your case...
He expects you to take his outbursts, accept his apologies and withhold your emotional frustration.. what does he give you? What do you give him? What do both of you benefit from by being together?
Love is not one sided, it is equal. Its always equal because two people are on the same page as separate entities.
Examples being, two mates who want to start a business but one goes to college for finance, the other does construction to pay bills - mutual goal - split responsibilities - mutual respect and encouragement.

Posted by SsupesThanks for your genuine response..Posted by irisThis right here has absolutely nothing to do with YOU. This is him not loving himself. I know for a fact this is true. I know because I was this man you are describing. I was not whole. I did not love myself. It caused pain inside me that I couldn't cure and I became angry with everything.Posted by CappedoffI know..still I posted this question..because i really want to know..can it be one sided..if a person cannot control his anger and ..call you names and later apologises but still repeats it again and again & still claims to love you ..can it be love? help me out..your speech would definitely help me..if you get time..do explain 😢

Now, with that being said, yes, I loved her very much. However, I could not express it properly because I couldn't do the same for myself. My own personal pain spewed from my mouth with no filter. It was horrible looking back at some of the things I said and did.
I hope he finds his way as I did. The most heartbreaking thing I ever did in life was look at myself in the mirror and see who I really was at that time. Then, and only then, could I hit rock bottom emotionally and start to heal.
Hope this helps

Posted by Ssupes"Is the pain caused by his words something you can tolerate without damaging yourself? "Posted by irisWell, BD always has good advice!
As said by beautifuldiaster "What do both of you benefit from by being together?"
Do you also agree with this?
Is the pain caused by his words something you can tolerate without damaging yourself? This is the question you need to ask yourself. You can't make him love himself. Only he can do that. However, you can always be a beacon of light for him to come to. Like the light at the end of a tunnel. You can't hold his hand while he heals, but, you can be there for him when he crosses the finish line.click to expand
