I have to thank God everyday for sending me the love of my life. We knew each other since high school, but just gotten serious about 3 years ago. I sometimes think back on my life and how different it would be if I never met my girlfriend and I was single or ended up with someone else. Before my girlfriend even stepped into my life I used to be shy, quiet and kind off lonely. Also very spiritually weak and frail. Today I thank the heavens because she has brought so much to my life. Strength, honor, and she just opened me up. My girlfriend has truly changed the course of my life forever. Have you ever been in love or are currently in love with someone who has changed your life for the better? How have they changed your life?

I'm in love too. He gives me all the attention and support I Always needed. He has made me a happier and stronger person. Before I thought happiness was something I had to steal. and soon it would be taken from me because it wasn;t mine in the first place. but now I se I deserve to be happy. And I am sooo very happy. He loves me the Same amount I love him.This is rare. I support him just as much as he supports me. This is amazing!

That's great. Having found someone that supports you as much as you support them is really getting rare these days. Everybody on this planet deserves to be happy and with someone that makes them feel love.

Thanks Green812. I have been with mines for about 4 years now and I haven't regretted a single thing. I feel that there is someone for everybody out there. It might not be the right time, but she is out there.

I have to give a resounding "YES" that my lover has changed the course of my life. We met on the internet. Because we were from different countries, there were many obstacles to overcome. Yes. My life is better as a result. I am better as a result. I've had to be open to looking at things differently than I was accustomed to. I had to open myself. I'm glad I did. In retrospect, I can't believe just how veiled my view was.....of life, of various things. Narrow. I would have missed out on so much if I did not open my heart and mind to the possibility of my life's love.

Same for me. The love of my life has really flipped my life around for the better. We have so much in common and I am so grateful to have met her. She sometimes makes my heart beat fast when she is really close to me. That's why I know in my heart that my girlfriend will soon be my wife and we were truly meant to be.

i don't really know how to fall in love seriously. in a matter of seconds, i easily fall in love and meanwhile, it will just gone up. maybe this is the reason why until now i don't have a partner nor a boyfriend. but i really enjoy being single, although sometimes it makes me lonely. but still, i value my freedom more than anything else :)

I must admit that being in a relationship occasionally will feel like entrapment, but it is just a certain phase you have to go through in that relationship and if it can be overcomed then it will feel a lot freer.

In my life there's only one person who changed the course of my life,the one who understand me for good and bad, the one who understand my mood, the person who makes me laugh and the one who give and show the loved i'm longing for life,by loving me unconditionally,i've met him beyond imagination into reality,I was in a way of life doesn't value the true meaning of love when i met him he taught me how to love and to follow my deepest thought and way to gave back love without hesitation.He changed my course of life by giving me a reason to trust and to give up my pride in the present of love.I always been doubt how love could be so real and how love could be that better when two individual were so miles apart from each other.He came into my life at times when i need someone to care, to loved to share thoughts and innermost feeling to love and to be loved.He turned my imagination into reality and his truthful way of loving me makes my life changed permanently.I'm so much blessed with his life..and how he changed my thoughts and life for better.Happy lotting!

Beautiful words. I actually learned a bit from your response on how love can change your whole life. My life was changed permanently when my girlfriend came into my life. I sometimes think back at the person I was before her and it scares me. It scares me because I could of met anybody, but God brought her to me. I am no longer in fear. I'm in love.

Wow, you are indeed so lucky. I love those love stories. I'm glad you are in love and in a great relationship. Yes, I myself is so deeply in love with my fiance. He changed my life a lot, he made me realized a lot of things that I couldn't even imagine realizing if not because of him. He opened my eyes to see more about life. He indeed made me a better person. He is my best friend, my love, my everything. And I can't imagine my life without him in it anymore. I'm so grateful and lucky that he came into my life.

That is so great to hear. In my neighborhood where I live I hardly see any couples just walking together holding hands. When you are in love with that one person you feel so complete and less afraid of the real world.

I am in love with the most amazing, beautiful, selfless man. He is one of my best friends, and has taught me so much about life and living in a few short years that I am incredibly grateful for. I've learned how to be a better, truer person because of him, and owe a lot of who I am becoming to his support and love.

That's so nice to hear. I love my girlfriend so much, that sometimes I will give her a great big hug and thank her for coming into my life and changing the course of it for the better. I guess when you are in love, that tingling feeling you get in the pit of your stomach is a real emotion. True love. Congrats and blessings on the relationship with yours.

Hi there. yes, I am pretty much inlove with my partner for almost five years. She's everything i have right now. My partner changed my perspective in life. She helped me see and appreciate small blessings that God given me. My partner helped me also to value my family and education. Because of that i was able to finish my degree with head up. God let crossed our path and use my partner as an instrument so that i can see directions and appreciate the value of life.

That is awesome. My girlfriend whom I love has made me achieve a lot of things throughout my life. I honestly would not know where I would be if she never came into my life. Congrats on your true love.
