"Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails...."

I am asking about TRUE love not the illusion of love portrayed by the entertainment industry and advertising industry

It is the absolute perfect description of love. If any of those qualities are missing, then the love isn't true and unconditional.

Your quote, did it come from a Hallmark Card?
Surely a true description of "true love" is that it does not need to be described at all, it is either sincerely felt, or it does not exist.

I don't agree with that statement at all. Me and my partner love each-other - but throughout our relationship we have experienced envy and anger and held grudges toward eachother. But we still have lust and we still have a lot of love - and you move on from these things.

I think that is the MOST accurate description of TRUE love. Basically true love is unconditional.

Yup - somewhat unconditional. (supposedly). But it hardly ever exists in this world, even if it does, it's not for too long uhh ? ! Welcome to the real world

no, people always neglect to mention how love is quite a selfish emotion.
