When there is money, there is deceit. You would never know if that person loved you or the money in your possession.

He has a point jare. You get lots of love, if the money is flowing. Thats just natural.

But the thing is, Kazey, it's not love. Love doesn't come and go as you gain or loose material possessions. The perfect gift of love is itself. Pure, vulnerable, open, breath-taking, faultless, forgiving love. I don't think there is a gift of love, I think that love itself is the gift.

Well a lot of marriages for example, are surrounded under that symbol "LOVE" but if you look closely at it, "NA MONEY".

Most married couples don't start of with money. Besides, money comes and goes. We should be careful not to base our love on tangible things because, well, it's not love  |

lolz then why is it, that ladies especially educated ones, only want successful guys?

That is not love, that is looking to excel.
I believe that everyone can be successful if given the proper nurturing and by having someone there to believe and support them. That's love. To help build up what someone has torn down.

Love's perfect gift is beyond money. Money is just a material wealth, its not worth giving to a natural thing "love". If those who will kill u will come around when u have money. ***  |

l for say why hot_engel is talking like this, she is only Sixteen by the time she gots to 20 up wards her way of understanding will change.
To me l believe the perfect gift of love is love itself, because when you love me, every other thing is addeded unto it so love is the mother that gave birth to trust, faithfullness, truthfuness, caring e.t.c.
my people abi nobi true way l talk.

Let any lady in this forum tell me if she can marry or even date a guy with no money at all, not now, not even in the nearest future. Money makes love and love is money, Kazeey you get am jare, have money around you and all u just be hearing will me "i love you"... no woman is ready to stick out her emotions for a guy with nothing most especially if she sef no get money if you think its a lie, try dating a broke ass guy, who can give you anything on your birthday, val, x-mas, new-year.... can't take you out on a little luch as cheap as a scoup of icecream,.... come onm lets face it every girl like a MAN not a man by sex. The guy at least should be able to pay some bills en thats money... |

That's not love. Money does not create love, it creates enemies and problems. If you go in a relationship strictly because of the material factor I'm afraid to say you may not end up as happy as you've intended to be.

@vexxy, see love and money are like siamese twins, No girl would tell you she loves you when you aint gat no money, I am not saying there aint gulrs who believe in love but even those who believe wouldnt fall for a handsome poor guy. Most ladies who go into relationship because of money tend to take care of their men better than those who don't. and most tymes stick together.

Ok, I'm going to put myself out there and then I'm going to a meeting.
It has been known to happen. I have dated and fallen in love with a man that hadn't 2 nickles to rub together. I supported him when he needed it. I was always there. Then, he didn't have a place to stay. I opened my home to him. It was at this time that I took on 2 jobs to support both him and myself until he was able to stand on his own.
He had no money but that didn't stop me from loving him.
But you know what?
He cheated. He strayed because I was "never home" always "too busy." I wasn't home because I was working two jobs.
Was it stupid of me to let it get that far? Yes. But it shows you that you there are people out there that can love someone who has nothing because having material possessions does not make love. It makes greed.
Besides, how great would it be to enter into a relationship and build together. That way no one can say he/she only loves me for my money because we built this thing together.

@vexxy you are really a nice girl but see, when i mean girls i don't mean all but i mean i greater percentage of them. Greater percentage of us cheat but that doesnt mean all of us do cheat.
I wonder why anyone would look for someone else when he gats you.

Everything happens for a reason. Also, I was not the same person then as I am now. But we learn and move on Also, we need to remember that not everyone is the same. Heart ache in one relationship does not mean that we should reserve ourselves in the next. Be cautious, yes but also give that new person a chance to receive your love. Don't hold back. It's the best way to love and to live |

Perfect gift of love is sacrificing for the good of the beloved... It is giving up your own happiness, it is forgetting yourself and it is giving your all.

For me the perfect gift of love is appreciation. You partner or whomsoever appreciation is something that money or any kind of material object can not measure up to and can be expressed with feelings. Material things are symbols whose value fade with time.

love itself contains all of these things so I believe it (love) is the greatest most perfect gift.

If love is its own perfect gift, what then makes up love itself?
