i just want to know what everybody thinks

I'm sure it still exists.
Finding it and then keeping it is the hard part when in reality love should'nt be hard at all.
If your lucky enough to experiance it in your lifetime then you should be willing to do anything within reason to keep it.
These day's most people are so caught up in there lives with everything else that they ignore the most important things and in turn often take one another for granted.
It's easier to walk away when problems arise other then work through them. Lack of communication and not setting aside quality time with one another makes you grow distant and most people don't realize what it is they really had until it's gone....

Just my opinion

I think I don't want to live in a world where there is no such thing as true love. And I ain't ready to die, so I hold on to the hope.

Pretty woman like you should have 10 times more hope than I. You will be snatched up before long. The ratio of men to women here is somewhat unequal. Best of luck to you.

true love does exist it has to in my mind it does and always will
i just think it is up to each person to believe in it in their own special way

True love can exist for the self. True love can exist for others. One just has to be able to feel.

It sure does,and it comes in many forms....

true love is a full-time job, many cannot or simply do not want or have the the time to commit to it. so many choosing careers.

personally I think it is easier for the young to "find it" then those of us who have experienced more of lifes trials and tribulations.

Why so the last statement Fireliter?

all those preconcieved notions of love forever all those fairytales and especially the young have the atittude "it won't happen to me".

I think if I would have got right back on the horse called marriage after it threw me ... but I did not, was that a mistake???

the older we get the more it becomes apparent that havin gto have a wife or husband is not nessasary.

Well if it exists its not here that is for sure

Sometimes I do believe and some other times I think twice about it.

I try to keep hoping it does.

I"m not so sure I am fully understanding you.

I think that as we mature,and live through life's trial's and tribulation's,and having learned along the way,that we are more inclined to be the more wiser.And having had good and bad experiences and knowing what was right and what was wrong,makes us a little more intune with what may be instore for us up ahead.


I agree we find comforts in so many other things,so nessacary no,but open to the possibilites,yes,ofcourse.


I think we have the advantage,but eh,thats just my 3 cents worth......

Yes.... that base element never went away...

Is it harder to find today, probably also yes, though....

I believe that true love does exist. What a boring world if it did not. It is not an easy thing to find but when found the rewards are numerous. Someone above mentioned that as we get older true love is harder to find. I don't think its harder to find, its that with life's experiences we now know what we are looking for. Hence, we may not find that love right away. We are also more cautious is opening our hearts and souls to someone.

I feel love has alot of different meanings to alot of people. When I love someone it comes out of respect, compassion, and understanding of that person. With that said, love is embodiment of a feeling that we have, not something that can be grasped or held in our hands. It is sharing time/feelings with a person, and not being selfish in needing something in return... to actually love respect, and truly want happiness for that person..no matter how we may or may not fit into their lives. I agree it is nice to share time , with a person I love, but true love to me is giving from the heart. It is something that we carry with us on a daily basis, in our thoughts, memories of time shared and experiances. It is something that no one can ever take from us. Its true we all have needs that is nice to be met by others at times...but I feel the best about loving someone or thing when it is for right reasons, in that I truly dont need anything in return to love or be a friend to someone in need, that I love. When we quit trying to grasp or hold it in our hands, we are then able to see it is already there on a daily basis. Love yourself first, have faith... and in that you will have strenght to give, and in giving there is love. Just my .o2

just ask katers and daniel on here,as for me do i believe ,hell yeah i got red roses and the cutest bear out the country someone wabnting to get my attention well he got it

YES! It exists. You love, that makes it a reality. If you feel love is it not true.

true love for me: the look in my babies eyes when they want to just say hi daddy and the way they hug me ........i had another person in my life not to long ago that loved my kids a lot but we never had time for each other yet i do respect her and thats to me is true love to be able to walk away with a smile and still know you arent angry because of some external conflict stopping you from being with them but always holding a special respect for them

I thought so at one time. Anymore I don't know, for myself anyway. At this point I'm not sure I even want to look anymore. Maybe one day it will happen, maybe not. I'm not counting on it. Sucks having a defeatist attitude, but thats where I am anymore. Hopefully others here fare better.

Its actually very sad that you and others who feel that way regarding love.

Love is rich,its pure,it has many forms,and enriches us in so many ways,to love thee self is where it all begins.

The love of are mother,are sister,father,friend,etc,they love you and you some of them.

I have love for some friends that is deeper then just to love them,I am in love with them.

Don't allow love in companionship to be the only love you allow in.

For you must not seek to be found......

True Love? yes it is real! Sometimes you gotta stay up all night crying over it, laugh about it, fight for it, satnd your ground and don't bcak down, wait for it, never giving up when it is so far away from you. True love exists, sometimes it's like a needle in a haystack!
