true love is never supposed to die, like the love God has for us. but no matter what what a rose will always die. so why is love so strongly bound to the rose?

Fallen Angel, you have some really weird ideas. Who said love is never supposed to die? And who said God will always love us? Maybe there will come a time when God really hates someone and decides to really screw with them and like throws gasoline on the person and lights them up and they are screaming, "Put it out, put it out!" But God says,"Fugg you, I am sick and tired of you, you aren't any fun to play with any more." Then God throws more gasoline on the person and as the person is screaming really loud and they can't even cry, God just laughs and says, "There, that will show you who's boss. How dare you think the world is round. Now burn, burn, burn you crispy critter."
In conclusion, God may like dead roses and crispy people he doesn't like any more.

I don't know why rose is associated with love... but to take it further ONLY God's love will never die. We as human beings will always experience the pain of loving, being rejected, loving again , having to reject. I guess going with your line of thinking a rose would be the perfect symbol. Love in full bloom like a rose is beautiful. And eventually it withers away...like loving and being in love can.

It is a good symbol because love smells so sweet and captures the eye, but there are thorns, it must be handeled carefully. And it is fragile.
True Love does not die but we are mortals and imperfect, as is our love. Love and Life are works in progress. Like a growing rose, if you try to capture it, cut it off and put it on display, you kill it. Left alone, it goes through a natural cycle and next year, there it is again!

From the expression on your avatars face, I think you know the answer to this question. Love does die, and so do the people that are in love.
Oh. And bye the bye, love is only associated with the rose, if someone is unable to distinguish what society tells them symbolizes love, and what they know love is.

Because just like love, a rose is fragile. Once a rose is cut,from it's life source, the rose bush, it slowly dies, like love dies once it is cut from it's life source, your heart. As God's love always blooms for us no matter what, a rose bush will always bloom their roses.

A rose is a symbol of love. It has a beginning and an end, just like life. There is no symbol of love that can last forever, other than love itself.

I guess you have never been married. Love does not last a lifetime. It IS possible for some people to stay married for a lifetime but I GUARUNTEE you that what they feel for each other at the end is not what they felt at the beginning. Certain aspects (attachment) may have grown stronger but others (lust, passion, 'romantic love') will have faded.
What things are 'supposed to be' (eg. the fairy tales we are told when we are kids) and what they REALLY ARE just don't match.
Sorry to break it to ya, kid.

Well, we all die too.
By the way, each color rose stands for different things.
Red = Love
Yellow = Friendship
don't know the rest.

1. everything dies
2. it's a pretty flower. before it was bred to have no smell, it was a powerful, clear and unmistakeable scent. it stuck with you. love sticks with you
3. you're talking about two kinds of love. and there are many more.
4. to the poets, love is harsh, delicate, and fleeting. the rose has thorns (harsh), soft petals (delicate) and dies (fleeting)
What better symbol would you have?
