i have found my true love right now. last year i thought i did, but he was a very evil child (im 12) who is always mean to those who are less popular than him, so i stopped. anyway, this year i have this friend who is very sweet and the other day, i realized that i liked him. i wanted to ask him out, but i didn't think it was really the right time. i haven't had a boyfriend yet, either, but i think it'll happen very soon. what im saying is, you'll feel it when you fall in love, butterflies it the stomach, feeling sick everytime u hear the name, it feels good. keep your eyes open and youll find him.

True love, a lasting love, requires commitment to each other and a conscious decision to Love. You will know if you have found true love If you can stay together through trial and tribulations, through pain and heartache, can still turn each other on after 40 or more years together.

If you can forgive each other and be faithful to one another then you you will have true love for it is not a fleeting feeling, an emotional high or a good friendship it is not great sex or the gifts of flowers chocolates or diamond rings it transcends all of those.

It is knowing when to say the right thing and not to say anything it is putting ones own wants and desires behind that of your partners, even when your'e hurting however instead of saying you have hurt me it says I am hurt. It transcends and permeates the passion and the desire for the sex and the companionship which should be the true celebration of a relationship. The Greeks called this deep Love Agape, Agape is perfect Love however it takes into account men and womens failings, it is not free it demands a price, the rose of Love it has it's thorns and at times your heart will feel like it is breaking but it will demand you stay together, it will demand that you forgive.

For "Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, 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.

If you build your relationship on those qualities that Agape demands and add an icing of Philia (companionship and friendship) and the candles Eros (passion sex and the Phwoar! factor) you will have a the perfect recipe a wonderful relationship and find true Love

Kawika agony auntIt is when your world seems a whole lot softer; when the flowers smell a whole lot sweeter; and your eyes sparkle a whole lot brighter. It is when things that normally irritate or befuddle you become insignificant in comparison to being with him. The real question is not whether you can live with him...it is whether you can live without him. In the end, I think you will know. Trust your heart...and your soul will follow.

Okay this one true love business is just that - a business. Hollywood and Hallmark thrive because of this notion of "one true love". There is not just one perfect person for you. With over 6 billion people on the planet, there's a goodly number of people that you can happily, lovingly, and with considerable work live the rest of your life with.

Don't get tripped up on having already missed your one true love. Try to get out and start dating. As you date more people you will get a better idea of what you want in a partner and what you don't. With any luck, you will have many loves over the course of your life and you just might choose to share the rest of your life with one of them.
