Does anyone believe in love anymore? Is there such thing as true love or am I just an unlucky women? Please let me know if I am the only one that feels this way.

I believe in love, It is just with today's morals and teachings, the youth of today is taught that if your not 100% happy, keep looking, instead of building a relationship over time.....It's the fast food mentality.. I want it all and I want it now..with no work involved...

Of course there is such thing as true love. It isn't that sappy love-at-first -sight version, but there is such thing. I'm sure you aren't just unlucky. Love doesn't happen by accident, as romantics would like to believe. There has to be some common grounds, such as interests, values, physical attraction, spirituality, etc. You don't have to be clones of each other, but there has to be enough common ground. If you just pursue men that interest you in one aspect, or because they meet a temporary need, you might find yourself thinking yourself 'unlucky'.
I suggest you make a list of character traits that would compliment you, and start seeking out those traits in the men you meet. For ideas of what that might be, consider men you know and respect, and why you think so well of them. Maybe you like and respect your chiropractor because he is always cautious, your neighbour always has a joke, your teacher asks about others, your friend's hubby is fit, etc etc etc. Think about what factors would effect a long-term relationship, and decide what priorities you hold personally.
This might sound pretty unromantic, but thinking out what you are looking for in a mate will lay some important groundwork while you size up perspective suitors. It is easier to find true love if you have eliminate suitors who you realise only meet a temporary need.

Of course there's true love but, isn't there some saying that says, "The course of true love never runs smooth" or some such thing? You can experience true love more than once in a lifetime. Your first love can be a true love but, things change and so does love. Then you might fall deeply in love as a young adult. You can also fall in love later in life. They could all be true loves but, it doesn't always last a lifetime. Sometimes it does though. I hope yours does.

OF COURSE THERE IS TRUE LOVE! YOU'RE NOT UNLUCKY BECAUSE THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS BEING UNLUCKY...BUT THERE IS A SUCH THING AS BAD TIMING. WHEN THE TIMING IS RIGHT, YOU WILL DEFINITELY EXPERIENCE TRUE LOVE. IT FEELS WONDERFUL AND IT'S AN EMOTION THAT NO WORDS CAN DESCRIBE...YOU'LL FELL IT SOON THOUGH SO START COUNTING DOWN...YOU'LL MEET HIM AT WORK!

Yes. My mom and dad have been married for 52 years as of October 1, 2006. Over the years, my dad has been out of the country on several assignments that sometimes ran for two years or more. Now that they are both retired, you'd never know they were ever separated for so long on so many occasions. If that ain't true love, I don't know what is.

yes, I believe in true love.my first first in love sex and so many other things from the second I saw him I was in love and we latter had a son together nothing or any one in this world will ever make me feel the way he did. I will always love him and no one has ever come close to giving me the same feelings even after twenty years . He went swimming and got caught in under current and drowned.

the answer lies in your definition of true love. it means different things to different people. and if you can not define true love then i'm sorry to say you'll never experience it.
if you want to get some ideas on what true love is i suggest you read the book- the road less traveled especially the chapter on love. another classic book on the subject is erich fromme's the art of loving. after reading these books at least twice you can ask yourself the same questions you asked here.
as for me, true love still exists and it is still possible to find. you may have to wait a longer time though.

I think there can be true love, but most people don't know how to find or make it. It helps to lose baggage that keeps you away from other people. That doesn't mean forgetting who you are, just don't let your past run your future.
Why do you think you're unlucky?
