Look, being "in love" and "loving" someone, are 2 different things. Being in love is the beginning, and loving is what the outcome is. Once the "spark" dies down, then you find out whether or not you ACTUALLY love that person. It may have been just an infatuation or just physical. If someone has stopped being "in love" than the LOVE part, just wasn't there. It hurts, but it's part of life and growing you know. There's lot's more people out there, so I wouldn't dwell on this one for too long.

I would have to say not even when all the chips are down. I believe that for one to truly stop believing in love, they would first have to lose the ability themselves. As a mom no matter what happens I always have love for my children, first and foremost. Secondly love is an essential factor in all relationships we create in our life, especially friendship. Without belief in love, what would this world be but an empty pit of despair. Love is what keeps our heads above the water even when it feels like the end is coming.

The longer I am married, the more I believe that marriage is about companionship and security rather than love. Yes, love inspires the marriage and sustains it through the tough times and it become a different love. The lustful love that begins a marriage turns into a love of companionship.
When the companionship is gone, I for one, am not going to try to find that lustful love. I'll probably be lucky to find an occasional companion and incidents of lust.

I have not stopped believing in love, but what I did was stopped believing in my poor judgement for picking loosers. I had to stop and look at what I was doing to attract them and I was a fool for the poor little me type of men who need some one to get them straight and keep them that way, I was always a sucker for a sob story. so I would give and give always believing that they would love me for being there, Not so they were just takers and when I ran out of money, time and a place for them to hang their hat, I was dumped. So you might look at what you part in relationships are so that you can believe that you deserve and will be loved

. its when you THINK you've stopped believing. is when you start yearning.
i never stopped believing in love. love is all around us. especially if we reflect it.
let me tell you a story. its kinda a real love story. I'm 27 tomorrow. and the love of my life is sending me a beautiful love ring.i haven't talked to him in 10 years. i looked and looked for him. i always had to believe that i would see him again. in the mean time i had to move on in my life and have a life. several boyfriends and two husbands later. an accident happened wile i was on line. i got into classmates dot com and i found tons of my old girl friends and it never accrued tome to look for my love. it popped in my head to look for my night and shining armor.
and i finally found him. he wrote back and we have been talking ever since. like as if we never broke up. we both have different lives that we have to take care of .but if we play our cards rite. his family and my family will be one family soon. together we will have six kids. and we cant believe that we talk of have some together. we are soul mates and we want to be together in the life after next. so you have to believe in love. it is gods plan that we find our soul mates. if not in this world believe that he or she will be there in the next life. family is the key. and the secrets to the universe is LOVE.

well you have to go through the bad to get to the good... Theres also a plan out there for you, although some things we'd like NOW we can't have now..but you will... So why stop believing when it could likely happen, don't sabotage your own future by not believing theres great things planned for you..remember this "you have to conceive it in your heart and mind, before you can receive it"

Yes, I have before, but I believe in it now. What I now know from experience is love cannot make you happy. Love is suffering and work just like everything else.
