Sometimes I wonder. You have to remember....we're human, but we're still animals. We are programmed to mate and reproduce, and this requires that we "spread our seed around" to produce genetically good offspring. While love isn't an exclusive human trait, I have to wonder if our primal reproduction mode overwhelms this love. But, consider this.....there have been many anecdotes about WWII, and solders returning and marrying girls whom they hardly knew, let alone love. While there was SOME love there at the beginning, that love often grew and flourished. And I think this happened for this reason (bear with me, I'm getting there).....people had manners back then; we seem to not have these manners now. He wasn't the best looking; she wasn't the best cook. But, manners dealt with these problems. These manners and the resulting interaction between these people made this love grow. Now, there had to be "trouble" between these couples, for sure, but this trouble was never aired in public. Nowadays, manners seem to have gone the way of the Model T not just in love, but in all facets of life. So, finally, I'm here......yes I think it's possible love can last forever. And I think it's love that ultimately gives us our "immortality"....our life after the human body dies.

It can, because you choose to. Love isn't just about a feeling, it's a decision. So if you decide to work out problems with a person NO MATTER WHAT, then your love will last forever. Not leaving each other because you can't agree on wallpaper color, but sticking through even when one loses a job or gets in a wreck. That's real love, and it does last FOREVER. It helps A WHOLE BUNCH to keep Jesus in the center of your relationship. I will be with my husband until death do us part...

Yes. If you have found the right person and it takes WORK. Love can't last forever by itself or stay the same. Love changes forms through the years. You have to work through the rough times and remember to keep romancing each other and dating long after you are married/living together etc. Love doesn't remain like it was when you first meet.

I think once you've found the "right one" it can definitely last forever. At the age I'm at now, I know it's possible, after all this time I have finally found him, and when everything settles down, I can't wait to spend the rest of my life with him.

yes. True love lasts forever. There are some that comes due to external attraction and others. But, real love that comes from deep heart lasts forever. Once the love becomes true and deep they dont get diverted to change.

I have been with my guy for ever but it can get very trying at times & it can become very easy if you are angry enough to just say thats it!! its over
point here is you have to keep working at it all the time to make it last & its extremely hard when one does all the work keeping it together so both need to help to make it better
so yes you can stay with the same person if you are made of tough stuff & you dont quit haha

I definitely do. You just have to find the right person. Relationships run into a problem when one person gives more energy to it then the other. The perfect formula is 50/50, and not all the time but it must average out to 50/50

Yes I know now that without any doubt that the love I have with my sweetheart will last forever as she is the woman of my dreams, the love of my life and my soulmate, I love her for who she is and unconditionally. I love each and everything about her and trust her completely with my heart. I will never let her go and she is all the woman that I will ever need in my life. She loves me for who I am too and unconditionally and we both know that our love is meant to be.

yes! true love does last forever. and when you find that special someone, you can be happily married to them for the rest of your life!
my mom and dad were married for 47 years. and when my mom passed away my dad was so broken hearted that I thought I might lose him too.
but he has met a wonderful woman who is a lot like my mom, and had lost her husband.
dad has been dating her for several months now, and he's finally happy again. but he still misses mom terribly.
you never forget your first true love.

OH yes my sweetheart is the man of my dreams and I love him more than I ever thought I could love a man. He is good to me, he is kind, funloving, easy to be with, caring, compassionate, oh I could go on and on--he has so many wonderful qualities. We are older ( early 50s) and maybe wiser than in our younger years. We have found a soulmate in one another and we will be together for the rest of our lives.
