nanagibs: I keep asking myself if true love still exist because i believe in love only, I eat,pray and sleep in love but i am still yet to find my soulmate.

I believe it does...
We have a lot of work to do with ourselves before we get there I think because ego and true love can't exist together. IMO

True love will always exist, where such love is absolutely unconditional. How many of us mere mortals could profess to know what this means, I daresay would amount to a relatively small number, myself included. An eternal journey in self discovery and learning to give without the need to receive....
Jeez, that sounds all a bit too hard for my liking...

First of all there is no such thing as soul mates.Think of it this way if there were truly only one person for each of us and we found them,then six months into the relationship they get killed in a car crash,does that mean we have to go the rest of our lives without true love? No of course not.We can find love many times in our lives.We are not limited to one time and one person.

ahhh.... now here is where the trick is true love in a relationship, where 2 people give freely without the need to have to want or ask, reciprocated freely threw joy and thanks and the desire to show appreciation for the gift of the love already given

You are 100% correct in your post ,,
But people sometimes become blind and abandon logic when they meet a partner and let sheer emotions take control .....
Thats were things can end in failure ,, nothing wrong with that it happens ,,but some go on for years looking for a get out .....
Im not talking about me ,, as i had a 24 yr happy relationship ,, but i have been in that situaton after that ,that 3 weeks was bad enough ....

true, but can you wait until you find another one that you can live the rest of your life with or do yo just have to hop from one to another. it is the time invested in the search and the quality of the effort put into the research that i think determines the true compatibility. why settle for the next one instead of the next, or first right one ? there should always be one there you just have to find them and cherish them when you do. IMO.
it's kinda like a plant, there are many you can have and choose from, but if you don't water and feed it it will die, maintenance is required for anything to last...

And best iff you get a Rose ,,dont get a Rambling one ..
I believe true love does exist,had it myself with my hubbie,but before him and since,it seemed horribly illusive.Its seems to me that you can meet an awful lot of people before you are ready emotionally to cope with a relationship,and then meet an awful lot more who aren't ready themselves..Then there is the problem of compatibility, status,kids,area,age,attraction,religion,chemistry

True love does exist...
it's everywhere the ego is not... it is anywhere where fear does not rot ... it is everywhere that the eye does not see... it is there just for you and for me...
oh... I'm sorry
thought this was the poetry thread
nanagibs... look within... IMO and experience, I have observed that if you truly have an attitude of love inside, you will discover that a soul mate kinda love is only an extension of how you truly feel about yourself... LOVE reflects love and FEAR reflects fear...
if this sounds simple enough it's coz it is simple... life is simple... it's us humans that make it complicated with our ego... just by thinking, feeling and acting through our ego, fear and doubt, we alter our inner peace and understanding of ourselves big time...
I have four rules I live by and they are:
1. Always be true to your word
2. Never take things personal
3. Never assume
4. Always do your best
... if this doesn't find me true love with another, then at least I'll be saying, I have inner peace, love and harmony within...
this thought alone makes me happy ... to achieve the soul mate kinda love wouldn't be a necessity for me but a bonus ... in the meantime and always, my attitude keeps me feeling good about myself

Romantic relationships almost always end.There are very very few people out there that are still with the same person to this day that they were with at 18 years old.I don't believe it's in human nature to be with one person our entire lives.Sometimes you can do all the right things in a relationship but they just fizzle away.
Just because a particular person fit us great at 17 does not mean they and the relationship will work for us as 41.Just because a relationship ends does not mean any chance of love ends with it.That is a defeatist attitude that I refuse to subscribe to.

I can't tell you how many plants I have had in my life that no matter what you did and how well you took care of them,withered away and died.Working hard at something is no guarantee that you will succeed.
