True Love

[Juspar Emvan]

As in, the one, the only, the forever, the light, the life kinda stuff.

Do you believe in it?

I don't. That's not a big deal, it just means that I think it is possible to love more than one person (sequentailly I hope,) with a passsion fit to lay your soul bare, in a life time.

And that there is more hope for finding a love like that than one in 3 billion. Or 6 billion for that matter, if you go both ways.

Yes,

I believe in true love. And, yes, I think someone can love more than one person. I love my family, and I love my friends dearly, but I am in love with my Man. He is my soul mate. He is the one, that I believe in my heart, I am meant to be with as my lover. There is no other that I love the way I love him.

hmmmm


I think I'll have to keep a watch on this, the skew on the responses surprises me. Perhaps I didn't narow down the definition enough, perhaps I'm just weird.

I'm sorry . . .

. . . you have a rash where?

 

[Isolde]

Yes....

And after so many false starts in my life, I have found him.

 

[Juspar Emvan]

Wow, I'm a minority. Where'd that thread go, affirmative action damn it.

Yes, I have it in my life, but I also believe continuation of it takes work and committment.

I'm still trying to figure out how you keep ending up reading my mind. I don't know how many times I've said those words to myself. I'm not one to believe in destiny, but I know that when I meet a man that will turn my soul to joy, I'll grab onto him and know in my heart that it is true love, because we are all capable of loving that's pure.

I believe that anything is possible...When I was married many yrs ago....we were truly in Love....but I haven't experienced it since that time...I have come to the conclusion that any good relationship and/or true love doesn't come without some struggle.

love is an emotion... it comes and goes with the stimulus that produces it.... love can come and go between the appetizer and dessert.

commitment is different. For a relationship to last, people must be commited to making it work, during times when love is present, as well as when it's not.

 

[stargazer76]

I absolutely believe in true love, but I don't necessarily believe that it exists for everyone. Some people find mates that they are compatible with but with whom they don't feel the "spark". I was lucky in that I found mine with my husband. I knew from the moment I met him that he was the one for me, forever. But I don't think that's exclusively what keeps us together day after day. The love is there, and it helps, but we also decided when we got married that we weren't quitters and that we were committed to each other, and no matter what we come up against, whatever problem, we each trust that the other will stick around to work through it. You can love someone, but without that commitment, you might not stick it out with them. So not to diminish the importance of love in a relationship, but it's not the only glue that keeps people together longterm.

We have true love, If it wasn't true she would have left me years ago. The truth about our love is we'll do and be anything for each other. It might hurt at times but that's what makes our love so special. We always come back to the truth which is our love for one another.


Honey you have the most beautyful heart I have ever felt.

 

[willywanker]

I believe in true love, but....

You can stop here if you wish.

Yes, I believe in true love. I saw it every day as I grew up. I've never seen two people more suited for and in love with each other than my parents. But I, on the other hand am working on my third marriage. I do, I think, love my wife but I've known since before we said I do that I was settling. And I think that is a big problem in this country.

I didn't have the patience to wait for Ms. Right to come along and decided I could be happy Ms. Not Bad at All. Now I find myself saying uhhuh and yeah when there is a lull in the conversation and having no idea what was said when we are finished. That is not the idea I started with but its where I am. I'm not complaining, at least not a lot. But what if I meet Ms Right now? I don't know. I'm going to stop now because this is giving me a headache.

 

[Isolde]

Willy...been there twice....the Mr Okay that is...had four kids without really being in love..

Why? Because I was convinced that true love was a myth and that it was the act of being joined in marriage with someone that was what made things happy.

Get married, have a family, happiness will follow...bull!

I now know that that is just sooo not true. If the heart is not there before, it sure as hell is not going to be there afterwards.

Fortunately, I have learned that that kind of love does exist and I am not too late to enjoy it.

Caught a hint of this earlier on the board. I wish for you all the happiness that we all deserve, but don't always hold out for!!!!!

 

[Isolde]

*hugs you*

Thanks, hon...I am sure, no matter the outcome things will be wonderful.

Slow and easy this time...gotta have a good foundation to build on. It may take a couple of times with a 2x4 but I do eventually get the idea.

Fate

If you believe in 'True Love', does that also mean you believe in fate. That your life is predetermined, predestined and beyond your control to influence?

 

[bluntforcemama]

Then true love was God's mistake. It was proof that we are not free, we have no will.

Re: Re: True Love

because we are all capable of loving that's pure.

do you really believe this Myst? to me, PURE implies without jealousy, mistrust, doubt, total honesty, holding nothing back, total commitment and loyalty without question or reservation.. there is just no part of me that believes humans are capable of such a thing

my friend vicki has a motto.. "the only true love is that which you have for your children and animals"

sounds good to me

 

[Weevil]

I do. I've found it.
