What is True Love? Repost and updated.
The age old question: What is true love?
People say that they love someone but yet again two weeks later they're with someone else they say they love. How do you truely know if you love someone? is there such thing as love at first sight? There's so many questions about what love is, and how do you know if you love someone. this is something that even a book can't explain. Books can give you a dream of what you wish how falling in love could turn out. Can you fall in love with someone just because of the sound of their voice? Or just because of the look they have in their eyes? or is it just by the way they hold themselves? Or is it because they may have been the best fuck you had? can you say you love them because of those reasons? Or is there no way to explain why you love a person? you can name so many reasons why you can love someone but is love explainable? Does a person only love someone just because of their good qualities? what about their faults? Or is it when you say you love someone you don't notice their faults. Shouldn't you love someone for all they are? their faults, their good qualities, their past and everything?
Is love like they say in romance books? it's enteral? But how do you know that person feels the same spark you felt? "the sound of his voice made me shiver with warmth and something more heavenly, the look in his eyes melted my insides,his arms made me feel protected, loved, and as if I was the only woman for him" can things like that truely be real? or is it what we wish was real? Now-a-days people say that a person makes them feel like that but again, not to far down along the line they end up with someone one else and says the exact same thing. Is there truely only one person for else? Our other half? Our soulmate? what is a soulmate? someone who is so much like you, that you and that person could be twins? Or is it that the other person compliments everything about you. Like in christine feehans books, the men are big and the women small, the men have a hunter nature and the woman have a caring nature. is that what a soulmate is? Or hell could your bestfriend be your soulmate? Would lifemate be a better term? someone that you are denstny to be with. How do you know once you and your lover dies that you two will meet in the next life time? These terms have so many meanings behind them. here's a quote from the Book Obsidian Butterfly
"The Greeks believed that once there were no male and female. The Greeks thought that when you found the other half of your soul, your soul mate, that it would be your perfect lover. But I think if you find your other half, you would be too much alike to be lovers, but you would still be soul mates."
How about the meaning for lifemates. From the Christine feehan books
"A female Carpathian who is chemically and mentally drawn to a particular male Carpathian so much so that her presence in his life brings back colors and emotions which have disappeared and prevents the male from turning and becoming vampire. A true lifemate can offer herself to the Carpathian Male by offering of her blood freely, “as is her right”. Then, no matter how ancient the male is, he will not turn, nor will he kill her."
I ask this because of something that happened last night and this morning. one person seemed to give up everything for the one they say they love but yet again that person won't give up anything. I have seen people give up their friends, their life, the things they enjoyed and everything for someone. But that person they gave it all up? well they wont give up the same things. I think that is so wrong. The person you're with should accept everything you are and shouldn't get mad over you doing the things you enjoy. You should've have to give up everything for someone else if they're not willing to do the same. Don't ask something of your partner you're not will to do yourself it's just not right. After seeing this person cry because of her boyfriend I felt my heart break. I adore this girl to no end and the fact the guy caused her to cry and to give up a life she enjoyed just for him... Well I want to hurt him and make him cry for causing her this pain. I know how much this girl loves this boy but he isn't willing to make any sacrfices or anything for her. I can't do anything but stand by and watch this girl get hurt. He promises things and breaks those promises.... You don't make a promise if you can't keep it. She says she's happy with him but if you look into her eyes... you don't see the spark that's supposed to be there all you see is dullness. I don't see her smile or laugh or anything anymore and my heart hurts knowing that.
Maybe I'm just being over protective? I doubt it.This girl deserves so much better. She may be a pain in the ass but she's a good kid with a kind heart. Granted she can be a real bitch at times but what female isn't?
After seeing so many relationships either work or fall apart it makes me wonder what is the meaning of true love and how do you know if the person is right for you or not? There's just so many questions to ask on this subject but not enough answers to make it clear. I have seen so much with this subject it confuses me on how everyone seems to be so different when it comes to love and how they see it. How a girl can't seem to break up with a guy who is basically beating her because she claims to love him. Or how a guy can't seem to break up with a girl who's been cheating on him, and many more things. Is the reason people go through so much pain actually love or because they're to weak willed to be alone? I have seen to many people i care for get hurt because of another person but yet again they claim to love them. is love really supposed to hurt you? isn't love supposed to make you feel so wonderful? or as if you're in heaven? or any of those other good feelings?
I just don't know and don't seem to get it. I'm only 20 years old but yet again it seems as if I've seen so many relationships go to hell because people are to scared to put their foot down and defend themselves and make themselves clear. I think both people in the relationship should be willing to give and take as much as the other person. Not one give more while the other takes more. It should be equal, a partnership. Ask only what you're willing to do yourself. Don't pull the while I'm a guy and I'm allowed to do this, that and the next thing but since you're a girl you can't. And girls shouldn't pull the well when you're with you can't do this that or the next thing cuz I said so. Sorry it's not right in my eyes. Don't ask someone to give up something in their life thats important to them if you can't give up something important for them as well.
Who is to say what true love is. there's so much more I want to write but I think I'll leave it at this because I know once my mind gets started, it just goes on forever. I know it isn't like me at all to write something like this but I felt like writing it just to get some of my thoughts down. even if they aren't organized at all.
