Does true love still exist in this modern world among mankind?

Answer 1

Why yes, He does.

Answer 2

It most definitely does, and those who think it doesn't, or that it only exists between a man and his invisible sky-friend, are shallow people who have not had the pleasure of experiencing it. I pity such people and hope that they grow up emotionally one day, and find that special other person who will prove them wrong.

I have seen true love many times, and dare I say, am experiencing it myself with my wife on a daily basis.

When you see an old couple in their 80's sitting on a park bench holding hands--that's not true love?

When you see the love a parent has for their cherished child--the absolute joy that child brings to their life--that's not true love?

When you see a man or woman refuse to leave the side of the hospital bed where their spouse or loved one may never rise from again--that's not true love?

I could list several more examples, but I think I've made my point. True love does indeed exist, and in fact is all around us, for those who care to look for it. And those who actually experience it, are some of the happiest people on Earth.

Answer 3

Of course it does but it is very elusive as it has been for the entire span of mankinds existence. It is something that you must work at. If it is something that you are going to apply the 50/50 rule to then it is doomed to fade and ultimately become something that may even hurt and bring pain. The Human organism needs affection and trust. It must constantly be validated and revalidated by another in order to truly survive. Initially this is usually triggered by a sexual attraction. But most research shows that that frequently begins to deteriorate in about 18 months. If the relationship is to survive there must be more developing by the time this period has past. Aging is a growth process, not only physically but emotionally as well. Most people slowly change as they grow older. Most people who are 30 are no longer the person that you fell in love with when you both were 18 or 20. Both of you have changed or failed to change. This is why most relationships in this 21st Century environment, where there are very few social mores left to force you to stay together, disolve into breeding grounds for hate and dispair, and children are left to almost fend for themselves. If you can not imagine working everyday to learn and grow with your relationship regardless of the return it usually gives you if your spouse is equally committed, then I would suggest you stick to the one night stand and do not expect anything more then an occasional blissful night. Remember that as you age your one night stands will come less and less often. That can occur in marriage too, but the growth as a human being can only be gleaned from an evolving relationship that is worked on constantly by both parties. Mariages that occur after the age of 23 but before the age of 27 are most likely to survive. Children born after two years of marriage are most likely to be greeted and enjoyed. After 7 years of marriage however, they can be a force that divides the couple rather then enhances them. Marrige in this latest environment can be much more happy and secure as it is frequently born from the desire and passion of the couple, but this is no garantee only a potential. As always it depends on the individuals involved and that is the real secret if there is one.

Answer 4

True love like any other conception of man only exists when there are people who believe it exists. like time... it exists due to mans use and belief in it... if you were to remove all beings who knew of times existence would there still be time... No. It is man created and maintained. I can say True Love exists due to the fact that I believe in it, and as long as I am here so does True Love. Its survival after me, or existence before me, I cannot say.

Answer 6

would you like to dance?
dance not with swirling feet
but in dazzling words
would you like to dance under the stars
not hidden by the clouds
but shining in our dreams...


true love is still alive in my poetry :)

ask any poet, half will lament its demise, half will praise it and half will laugh and the final half will cry. Poets cant count and thats why true love still exists in the modern world.

Answer 7

Oh what have you asked. Does not all of us want it. I think it does exist and anyone can have it. Our greed, selfishness, lie, anger, jealousy does not let us see the ones who can give it to us and thats all. I am still looking for one and lost when I could have it due to my attachement to lie, anger and jealousy. Never had these things come close to you and you will find one. Peace.

Answer 8

Answer 9

Yes and His name is Jesus! I love Him because He first loved us. He loves us so much that he died and gave Himself for us. And now He gives Himself, the Holy Spirit, to all who receive Him as their Lord and Savior. I am never alone and my depression, anger, loneliness, drugs, alcohol, and cigarettes were taken away, all in one night, as if I never did them! The only regret that I have, is that I did not surrender myself to Him sooner! Thank you God for the Baptism of the Holy Ghost!

Answer 10

It never has existed between humans. From God to us, yes. The story of Cain and Abel in the Bible is an early metaphor of our difficulty in "loving our neighbor as ourselves."

Answer 11

Yes, it does
