is there such a thing as love? because i see so many divoreces and so many splits.?

Question

our teacher asked us if this word love should be in the dictionary

Answer 1

Yes there is, it's just people give up way to easy. Most are so easy to throw in the towell, divorce is the easy way out. I am sure a lot of people would still be married if they put some effort into it.

Answer 2

Yes, there is such a thing as love. Even though people sometimes don't acknowledge it, they can still feel it. Some people express their love through hate like Helga towards Arnold in the Nickleodeon cartoon "Hey Arnold". Divorce is not necessarilly a bad thing, its just that some people take it to the extreme when going through it. They don't want to see the other person doing well because of something they might have done. Some people just can't make it together. If a person really loves someone, then when breaking up with them they will just part ways with no physical contact or violence.

Answer 3

You see so many divorces because people are lazy and don't recognize that everything that is worth something is hard work. Instead of working hard, people just throw in the towel. From my personal experience (watching people I know get divorced and not counting things such as abuse or adultery), the irreconilable (sp?) differences comes in when neither party will compromise.

My parents were married 30 years when my dad died two years ago. My in laws' have been married 29 years. My husband and I have been married almost 11. Marriages can work but you HAVE to WORK at it.

Answer 4

Yes there is, it comes from knowing and respecting the person. Sharing, intergity, trust and common goals in life are important and rarely discussed. Too often we pay attention to someones physical appeal or to what our friends think about them.
To be sure, its equally important that we develope the same qualities to give to the person we will eventually love.
Love isn't always fireworks, sometimes its a glow and that confuses people. It works best when people are equals and not dependents, although eventually, in a long marriage people become interdependent . I am married to a wonderful man for 28 years, and we laugh and love and support each other when necessary. It really can happen.
