What is Love?

Love is not what you think it is. That's why so many marriages end in divorce. People get a hormonal rush when they're around a person and think they're in love, and believe that person is "the one."

Not even close. True love creeps up on you over a long period of time. It's NOT that powerful feeling of "I must have this person." Instead, it's a slow build-up. When you truly love someone you don't have to ask yourself if it's love. You're not even ASKING yourself. After having this person in your life for quite some time, one day you wake up and automatically know. It's not an emotional rush of feeling type of love, the kind that makes you breathless when you're around them or thinking about them. That's lust. True love is a deep, calm knowing. You can distinguish it because love feels secure, while lust feels emotional.

If you're thinking about eventually getting married, remember one thing: Marriage should not be the sequel to sex. It should be the sequel to friendship. Lots of people make big mistakes when getting married because they think they're in love and that they're supposed to marry the person who excites them and has good sexual chemistry. But after those feelings subside they end up with resentment, disgust and anger for that person. They were never really in love. Many times we are already married to this person and feeling trapped and very unhappy. It's scary to wake up one day and realize you're in a relationship with someone who you can't depend on to be by your side forever. The best way to make sure the love lasts is to make sure it's love to begin with.

Have fun with the excited feelings you experience when you're exploring passionate relationships with the opposite sex. But while you're in those relationships, pay attention to the other people in your life that you care for, but aren't "in love with." Believe it or not, THOSE are the people you most likely could eventually truly love. Here's a test to help you figure out what true love really is.

A friend emailed this to me a few years ago when I was dating a woman who was very wrong for me. I saved the list because I wanted to remember it. It's probably the best advice I ever got. I like this test a lot because it is a total eye opener. It's designed for men but it's good for women to see what should matter to a man. It shows you who in your life really loves you and who you probably love without realizing it. It's also cool to think you probably already know the woman you're going to end up marrying.

This test helps a man determine what really matters in a woman, and which one in his life is most likely to be "THE ONE".


The Marriage Counselor's Marriage Test
Think of all the women currently in your life. Think of the women you are dating and have dated. Think of the women you have been in relationships with who are still single and available to you. Think of the women you talk to at the grocery store, the cleaners, on the golf course, or in the park. Think of the women you work with. Think of your close female friends and the women you confide in. If you're a single man and want to marry, statistically it is likely you will eventually marry one of these women. To begin the test, write down the names of at least five of these women. Be sure to include the ones you have the most contact with.

Ask yourself:

True love is patient and kind, loving and giving, never jealous, always faithful, loyal, understanding, warm and safe.

It is the feeling of being a better person because you're with them, wanting to be the person they see. True love is the feeling that although you know you could live without them, you cannot imagine wanting to live with anyone else.

True love is forever.

A love that is unconditional...neither giving nor seeking favors...
A love that loves the beloved even if the circumstances change....
A love that transcends the physical aspect into sublime...

actual love is type of a ghost, each body talks about it yet few have honestly considered it. yet i my pal have considered it, i have considered it come from myself. actual love is actual, that's authentic to those who trust it. actual love is something you do with the help of determination, no longer something you "fall into." you're precisely as a lot in love with someone as you artwork at. Love is even as, with the help of your own loose will, you search for all the very proper for someone, and search for to provide and make contributions into that existence as a lot as you may. the surely way for like to very last an total life is so that you may make it artwork, quicker or later (each so often one second) at a time. Love isn't magic; you may want to artwork at it. you make certain if it lasts, and it may. yet you may no longer keep in mind that, Love isn't meant to be understood, its like a language spoken with the help of each body, yet understood surely with the help of your coronary heart. i wish that you do discover it quicker or later, it may no longer look actual now, yet then you definately've in no way had a gf.

true love....its first of all th ebst and worst and thing you will ever experience. its when you love someone so much that no matter how much they hurt you you will still love them. its when you would do anything for them and their happiness. and by anyhting i mean live for them, die for them, kill for them. its when you love to be with them and in your eyes they are absoultley perfect. its when you can see yourself spending the rest of your life with them. and you know when its true love. you just do.
