True love is Unconditional Love. Unconditional love is recognizing and accepting the balance of all the positives and all the negatives present in the person.
Most people misconstrue infatuation for 'true love'. But, infatuation is seeing only the positives and none (or few) of the negatives. Infatuation eventually decays into its opposite - hate - when the person finally sees all of the negatives and overlooks all of the positives.

Well, seeing as you asked in the philosophy section, and not any other I'll keep this philosophically-ish. True love is a feeling, but then so is everything else. The only tool we have to examine the world is our experience. Now, as to the experience of true love and its metaphysical ramifications: True love, as I see it must be the dissolving of the subject object barrier between two people. In any case that is how I have Metaphilosophised on it.

Aside from Arnie's answer ( I simply love Leonardo DiCaprio), true love for me is something shared by two people whose lives revolve on each other. True love learns to forgive mistakes, then later forget. True love knows how to believe, to understand, to accept. But of course, it's meaning cannot be clearly defined by anyone. It can only be felt.

Love is a reflection of giving and caring without waiting for a return, if you don’t love the person how gave and sacrificed for you more than anyone on this planet without waiting for even a thank you, then you don’t have an idea about love, and that person is your mother, cherish her with all you got.

A phrase which tries to differentiate itself from the word love because everyone uses the word love but very few of them have ever experienced it.

We all know what love is. TRUE love is love that asks for nothing in return.

It is something that is only true when it is from parents to kids. Everthing else if false true love :)

True love is when you don't have to ASK what it is

I think true love is when you can be totally accepting, open, honest, compassionate and respectful of each other.

True love is if you feel bliss when the other person is happy, even if he or she is happy with another person and not with you.
