well hmm...i think it does still exist but is very rare in these days and times to have a true love between a women and a man hard to find

I agree with that statement. I was in Hot Springs last night to get away from LIttle Rock! How do you know if it is true or not for sure?

well just my opinion but i think you know its real by how each of you feel for one another such as its the way your face lights up at the very mention of their name,its how all your thoughts become all of them your mind wanders through the day of thoughts of them and the last thing you think about before goin to sleep and the first thing you think about when you awake its how you cant remember your life before them,and you cant imagine life without them,how fast your heart beats when you know your about to see them how your hands shake and your smile is a little bigger everytime the phone rings in thoughts it may be them,how your thoughts arent what you want and what makes you happy but in what will make them happy,in how you would do little things just to see them smile

I do believe that true love exist. The problem is, with everyone being so busy and scheduling conflicts with the sigificant other,we lose site of what is most important. It takes work and commitment to make the other person fill significant and loved.cherish the time that you do have together. Work harder on making the other person happy,and never lose site of what means most to you. Do things to let them know how much they mean to you, no matter how small or insignificant it may seem.

That was very well put. I think it is so true.

The problem nowadays is that people dont slow down enough to actually take the time to get to know each other.

"Love is composed of a single soul inhabiting two bodies." ~~~Aristotle




I think true love allows you to see an imperfect person perfectly. You wouldn't change one thing about them, because the are perfect just the way they are. They are beautiful to you , inside and out. They not perfect, and they have flaws, but they are perfect for you, and when you look into their eyes, you see everything you need. You want to be better, just because you are with them.


It's being with that one person that you have an unexplainable, indescribable, instant connection too. It's as though you have known each other since before time began. It's as if you were simply "apart " for a little while, and every moment you spend talking, you're really just "catching up". Sometimes when you are near them, the feeling of love is so overwhelming that you have to remind yourself to "Breathe...in and out....just breathe..." It's when you finish each other's sentences. It's when you could listen to them talk all night and never get tired their voice...It's when the thought of their name gives you butterflies...They are the the last person you think of when you go to sleep and the first person you think of when you wake. It's when you want their happiness far more than you want your own, regardless of what that means for you personally.

It's when you aren't able to spend time physically in each others' presence, and yet, every moment you spend together on the phone, or online, through e-mails or messengers.... it's as though you were right there with them. You see them in your mind so vividly that you know exactly what gestures they are making as they speak. You can see the way they tilt their head when they laugh, and how their eyes light up...how their eyes darken when they're serious...how they kick back on the couch when watching a movie... and how their body feels against yours... even when you can't see or touch them.... and all this comes not from looking at them, but from KNOWING them... because somehow, someway, you're soul is connected to theirs... as if you were two parts of a whole... and you complete each other even when you're not together.

Some people tell me I'm hoping for to much, but I know true love is real. My parents had it, I grew up surrounded by it, and I hope to have the same thing someday.

Yes, I've had it, and really, the description I gave pales in comparison. Words alone are inadequate. But also, I think the meaning of "true love" is defined by the individual. It means different things to different people. I can only give you my definition of it, and I may be the only one who sees it that way. I'm glad you asked the question though. I'm curious to see some more of the replies.

I have been in 3 major relationships in my life. It was hard having a military marriage with me being gone all the time, so I really cant blame the women i was with for becoming lonely.
The one woman who was between my 2 marriages was the love of my life and I screwed the pooch on that one.
Never go to a bachelor party, get drunk off of your ass, then deny any and everything thast happened. As a matter of fact, just dont go to bachelor parties...some guy is gonna tell all when he gets home code or no code, hehe.

So, yes I found it and lost it because of stupidity.

I think you CAN blame her, actually. My true love was in the 82nd Airborne, and was gone all the time too. But no matter how far away he was, his presence was always with me, every moment of every day. I could close my eyes and think of him, walking up behind me, putting his arms around me, and I could feel him against me, just as real as if he were there. He died a long, long time ago... but sometimes, (like now) I can think of him, and I still feel him. No one ever said love would be easy... you just have to know it's worth it...

That is a great definition of true love , simple yet deep . My parrents had/have that , and I'm also holding out for it too . I don't know that it is there for everyone though . Wouldn't it be great if it were ?
