Every couple I have known breaks up or falls apart and doesnt last. My mothers, my sisters, everyone.
Does true love exist? Can people truly be happy together forever?
I have this naive hope of one day finding my one and only love and saving myself for him. Can I?
I would do everything to make my one and only happy. I would give him everything to ensure he wont tire of me. I would make him happy. I would give up everything for him if it can ensure he will always love me and only me.
Can true, pure love exist? Can people truly be together forever and mean it and truly be..together forever?
At times I feel like love is not real and only lust and greed exists. I wish I could think otherwise.
Verified answer
Not in my reality...only in my dreams..
yes true love exists. Finding the right man can take time. Some people just become more fortunate like myself to find true love at such a young age. I was 17 (24 now) when i started dating my girlfriend. We are getting married in July and we could not be more perfect for each other True love will come. Sometimes when you least expect it
It is unfortunate you live in a world that is such a disappointment.
God is love and some take a life time to learn this while others are lucky enough to find it out young.
You may want to consider a loving Parent will love the child once ir is born and the child must learn to love the parent. Some parents make it hard for the child but then it is not always that way.
Read my Profile and see how it works.
Yes and no. I think that sinful humanity is not capable of COMPLETELY selfless love. Even the way you are thinking now. You met the person, and after years and years, it is hard to live up to the standards that you just posted in your question.
But the Bible says God is love. And in Him, through Christ Jesus, true love is possible.
Coming from a guy who's parents feared the Lord and kept their vows, till death do us part, and passionately loved each other till that day. And who's 2nd 'adopted' parents, fear the Lord and will be celebrating 40 years of marriage soon, and still passionately love each other. And I myself have only been married for 2 years, married when I was 26, to a woman who is my dream. We gave our virginity to each other on our honeymoon, and look forward to years of sacrifice, giving, hard work, and Christ Jesus in the center.
There is only one way to achieve true happiness of the kind that will keep a married couple together "til death do us part".
You must accept Jesus Christ as your personal Lord and Savior. After you do this, you must never have anything to do with a man who is not also a born-again Christian.
Here's a little help to get you on your way down the right path that God has chosen for you:
The Prayer of Salvation
"Dear Heavenly Father, You have called me to Yourself in the name of Your dear Son Jesus. I realize that Jesus is the only Way, the Truth, and the Life; and is the only Mediator between You and man.
I acknowledge to You that I am a sinner. I believe that Your only begotten Son Jesus Christ shed His precious blood on the cross, died for my sins, and rose again on the third day. I am truly sorry for the deeds which I have committed against You, and therefore, I am willing to repent (turn away from my sins). Have mercy on me, a sinner. Cleanse me, and forgive me of my sins as I forgive anyone who has ever sinned against me.
I truly desire to serve You, Lord Jesus. Starting from now, I pray that You would help me to hear Your still small voice. Lord, I desire to be led by Your Holy Spirit so I can faithfully follow You and obey all of Your commandments. I ask You for the strength to love You more than anything else so I won't fall back into my old ways. I also ask You to bring genuine believers into my life who will encourage me to live for You and help me stay accountable.
Jesus, I am truly grateful for Your grace which has led me to repentance and has saved me from my sins. By the indwelling of Your Holy Spirit, I now have the power to overcome all sin which before so easily entangled me. Lord Jesus, please transform my life so that I may bring glory and honor to You alone and not to myself.
Right now I confess Jesus as the Lord of my life. With my heart, I believe that God the Father raised His Son Jesus from the dead. This very moment I acknowledge that Jesus Christ is my Savior and according to His Word, right now I am born again. Thank You, Jesus, for coming into my life and hearing my prayer. I ask all of this in the name of my Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. Amen."
A couple who are both born-again Christians stand a very much better chance of finding lasting, true love. Although this conversion will not absolutely guarantee a lasting, loving marriage, it will beat the odds of the unGodly whose marriages end in divorce more than half the time.
Two of the most important ingredients in a happy marriage are a total lack of selfishness and a total commitment to forgiveness.
Let not the sun set upon your anger, but forgive and forget.
Jesus said the greatest love is shown when a man lays down his life for his friend (which is what He did). Love is unconditional. Love can be true and pure. But when you are expecting the other person to love you and you are living for the person to give it to you and expecting and wanting more from the other person then it isn't love and it will cause just disappointment. Don't expect too much out of a person and love them for who they are.
Those broken relationships are built on sexuality, real love is between someone that can see each other as siblings or best friends.
People fall in "love" so they won't fall apart.
there is no such thing as Ken & barbie relationship...so nope
there is no such thing as love
just a long term strong feeling for somebody. One day a lady had nobody to be around so she though it would be fun to **** everybody over and make up "love", sooo now everybody screws each other over because there in love . =)
wait! i think there is true love!! I love God and he loves me, but the thing of it is that you have to look for one certain person out of this whole world and its hard finding him/her. I think some people just don't find it as fast as they want. Keep looking my friend. I'm in love!!
My neighbours are in their 90's, and have been married since the age of seventeen. They still act like kids around each other, totally in love and full of laughter.
It's rare, but it's out there. :)
I believe that you can be happy with someone, and love them, but i don't believe in true love.
Mostly because i don't understand how one person could hold everything in them that you have ever wanted. I know with true love, you love their faults as-well, but that makes no sense to me either.
Also, because i think everything has a price. With true love, you love that person more than everything. However, if it came to you true loves life or your child's, who would you chose? Or your true loves or your sisters?
I think everything has a price, which contradicts true love.
Yea it exists. My parents are still going strong and have been together 30+ years.
