Do you believe in love?

Personally I do but I don't. If you spend enough time with someone I am sure you can grow to love them and marry them. So its love, but you can fall in love with everyone, so is it really love? It is a controversial topic. I don't really believe there is that one true love. Take this example. A women marries her one true love, but then her husband dies. Three years later she marries again. Now are both of them her "true loves." And what would she do if she met both at the same time? Would she have gotten with the second person, or the first? Lets discussion your views on love.

I've loved more than one man at a time and enjoyed both of them very much, but when I had no choice but to choose, I looked at who I respected the most. That was the cincher. The one who looked after me and my daughter and made sure things were safe with the car for a trip, and if a doorknob needed repair, the one who took care of things like that. The one who went out of his way on birthdays and such and didn't just ignore it, but tried to come up with something special. Afer I made the choice as time went by, I had no doubt at all made the right choice. I fell madly in love with him. I've loved other times, but that guy was the one for me. I feel like if you give yourself time, one day you will know there's a guy who you feel about like no one you've ever known before. The one who makes you laugh, and makes you feel good about yourself, and wants to make your life better.

For some reason I don't believe in love at all. I think to myself what exactly is love and that when I see couples in the street I feel that it isn't love

Yes, I believe in love. I believe that there's someone for me. I've been in love twice, and the first one didn't feel right no matter how much I loved him. Now, I have another partner and I love him more than I loved the first one, and this time it really feels right. I feel like he's the one for me. Unlike you, I can't "learn" to love someone romantically. Yes, I can learn to love someone as a friend or as a family, but I can't learn to love someone as my partner. I tried to do this once. Our relationship went on for 4 years, but I still didn't learn to love him even if I convinced myself that I can. That's why I don't think you should say that you can fall in love with everyone because I think it depends on the person. You can, but I can't.

strongly but not believing the person you loved ,,going to be with you in entire life or he/she gonna love you the same isn't!! it is just the game of luck ,,you think everything is undercontrol of you but actually the frame of life is not in our hand...so keep loving but never expect the same from opposite side!!you will always happy!!

Dear friend, I do believe in love, but I respect those who love sincerely. I hope love becomes success when those couples get married and that love still last in their life colorfully. Further to love more than one person may show how much value that person is giving to love. May be love is like a tissue paper for them. For me love is something like a knot between two hearts. I waiting for my love somewhere in this world if God permits me.Moreover I am happy to respect and fulfill those needs of a girl who love me sincerely.

For someone who's name is associated with 'love' I am confused since you don't believe in love. It's true that if you are with the person most of the time, you would eventually fall in love, but it doesn't mean that it will happen to everyone, right? I mean, there are best friends who never fall in love with each other and eventually would marry someone else, but they do love each other as friends.

yes i believe in love. love has many aspects. my boyfriend is my true love. i think i could not fell in love with other men the way i love him. i discovered that he is my true love when we separate before. i cannot do anything, my life become miserable, and i want to die before. when we back in each other arms i show him how much i love him because i dont want to lose him again.

I think I used to believe in love. Nowadays, it looks like the love has disappeared. It looks to me that is now all about personal interests such as money, cars, etc. I hope I'm wrong but that is how I see things these days.

Oh yes I do believe in it, and how can you not believe in love with its everyone. you can find love anywhere, at home, at school, at your work place, etc. And you can't fall in love with everyone, you can with some but not everyone. You can develop love with everyone but not the romantic love you spend with your true partner, and those love are very different from each other. What about the kind of love your parents are showing you? You can't possibly marry your parents if thats the case, the kind of love you share is a very different kind of love that you can find with the right person for you.

Personally believe in love.Love is reality experience it as a wonderful feeling, while for others experience its harshest moments. I feel that a person really becomes mature only after he had some experience with both sides of love. It sometimes takes time for some but you definitely find it wherever it is. the problem now is, if you really think that is is a waste of space, you'll not even see it when it comes. We know that some people come to that kind of conclusion because of experiences, deception etc... but i could say keep your eyes open and do not despair because there is still true love out there... Just believe and be patient. Money can't buy us love and nothing can. It is priceless. People often say they don't believe in love and concentrate on making a lot of money, but we can see it every day that they usually end up very lonely and miserable. No problem is too difficult because you at least have someone to lean on, some one to share your joy and pain. For me God is my first love but i think we are all human and we need some one in our lives.
