People say love is a beautiful, selfless and honest feeling! Na lie! If someone says he or she loves you, what it really means is that they want to own your feelings. They want your complete attention, fidelity and loyalty.

If it's not so, why do people usually fall out of love once the other person does not reciprocate! If it was. Unconditionally give, why insist I must be faithful and love you back!

No love a emotion 419. It always require something back. Abi?

Well...he might have a point but I think the bigger problem is that most people have no idea what love is,often atimes they equate love to strong feelings for the beloved which usually happens when we become attracted to,invested in and committed to the beloved which most people then term "falling in love".This feeling of falling in love is really as a result of our very strong psycholigical and biological needs being met by the beloved.Our psychological need to escape loneliness and our biological need for sexual gratification and survival of the specie.True love transcends ephemiral feelings,it is an act of choice," the WILL to extend ourselves for the purpose of nuturing our growth and that of the beloved.While these feelings of falling in love is euphoric and desirable,and since we cannot really nuture our beloves growth without truly knowing him/her,the process of being attracted to,invested in and commited to the beloved associated with the feeling of "falling in love" is important in romantic relationships.I would conclude therefore by stating that while "falling in love" is not in itself real love,it is part of the great and mysterious scheme of love.THE PURPOSE OF A RELATIONSHIP IS NOT TO HAVE ANOTHER WHO MIGHT COMPLETE YOU BUT TO HAVE ANOTHER WITH WHOM YOU CAN SHARE YOUR COMPLETENESS.You cannot share your completeness if you are not complete and the first purpose of love is to nuture your own completeness.REAL LOVE IS HARD WORK AND REQUIRES COURAGE.
