Does True Love Exist?
« on: April 29, 2005, 02:20 PM »

sounds like a typically dumb question but I haven't seen evidence of its existence other than powerful infatuations and stupid obsessions. I hold the view that love in its literary form only exists in movies though I don't discount the fact that deep affection can develop between two individuals. What do u think? Undecided

Kodewrita, can you describe 'love in its literary form'?  Can you tell us how 'love in its literary form' is different from 'infatiatuations', 'stupid obsessions', and 'deep affection'?

i meant love as gleaned from novels,books and the entertainment media. these books create unrealistic expectations (though it might be possible for some people to find love but i believe its a very scarce commodity and that what most people call love is either infatuation + lust  or companionship + lust)

Good day Fellahs, Please permit me to contribute to your discussion. I think Love exists, and it can be clearly distinguished from Infatuation and stupid Obsession. I as a person knows that it does exist, but never believed in it, until i met a Lady that totally changed me to a loverboy. But finding one's true love is the major problem. Cheers

Love most definitely exists. It is far more real than the lines on your palms. The only plausible reason any one will think otherwise is if they are yet to experience the beauty, I dare say the absolute joy of loving somebody and being loved in return by the person in question. Yes, love can be painful at times, disappointments, unfulfilled dreams, expectations cut short and so on, but life itself is a risk and unfortunately if one ventures not, it automatically follows that one gains not. Playing safe becomes exceedingly dangerous if one decides to pretend that love is simply a fragment of some weak people’s imagination.

When you love someone, you think of the person when you open your eyes in the morning, they're in your mind as you go to bed and the hours in between. Loving someone is putting their needs and comfort first, never seeking to hurt them. Loving someone is feeling complete, regardless of whatever situation you might find yourself in. One can go on and on but the only way to understand what love is and if it indeed exists is to experience it. On that note, I sincerely wish those who do not YET subscribe to Cupid’s school of thought the very best.

True love abounds all around us..."self-created" problems just distort our views so we can't recognise it even when it's staring us right in the face.

Of course love is for ever and it means that it is for real and for marriage sometimes.

Love is a choice of action. You have control over love. You choose to love and you choose not to love. You know why you like amala, and you know why you hate pounded yam. Its simple. I love kemi, but if cinderalla, but if cinderalla cheats on me, I am going to kill her. Will i kill someone i love? No. That means I stopped loving her the minute she cheated on me. Love is a choice

i just came across this so it's way off from when it started, but okay.

so i'd like to believe love exists and i haven't really found it yet, but eventually i'd like to think i am. but i think i might've been in love at some point but for some reason ei don't' feel that anymore, mayb it's because of doubts or the fact i don't entirely trust the opposite sex from not hurting me, but i think if i can ever get past that then maybe i'll find love. so maybe love is about being open and when you find them, you will be able to be open. kind of like how they say true love is when one soul recognizes it's counterpoint in another. some things you just know

@kodewrita
               i think you are wrong to say  reality true love does not exist.you may never have experienced or seen couples who are truely in love with each other or you may have gotten your heart broken several times,because you write like a man who is heart broken.my advice to you is God has destined your miss right before you where born,the fact maybe you have not come across her does not mean you should give up hope. you may not know  the minute you decide to give up hope may be the minute you have been destined to meet your miss right.i have experienced a lot of couples who have found true love and i believe you will find the right one at the right time Smiley
