Its the month of love and the clock is gradually ticking as Valentine is just a breath away. Valentine as we all know is the season of Love or a day set out to show and share love, but then, love as beautiful as it is, is a controversial and an annoying feeling which have over the years been abused on a daily basis. I see and read about a lot of people who let go of important things or gave their lives away to suit another person all in the name of love, and I wonder is this how its supposed to be? Do I have to loose my identity and life because I want to prove to someone I love them? Well, this brings me to the topic at hand, and in the spirit of love, I would be giving out some honest true tips on knowing about true love.

1. True love is not about finding yourself in another.

Don’t fall in love, or think you’re in love, just because you want to find yourself. Your identity is not to be someone’s other half, it’s to be yourself! Don’t get so swept up in your partner that you become them. You don’t need to be the number one fan of their favorite band or read all the books they read. Keep your interests and hobbies and you’ll be more interesting to, and interested in, your partner. This is something virtually everyone is guilty of, you see ladies who have no interest in Football suddenly enduring the painful 90 minutes of a football game because they want to prove to their man they love him and like everything he likes. Sister, do not do that. Make him realize that you have no interest in football and enjoy that golden time doing whatever hobby you love.

2. Self love is the best way to find true love.

It sounds like a cliche, something your mom and girlfriends told you every time you were crying over a broken heart, but it’s true, you must love yourself before you can love anyone else. Be comfortable with yourself, even when you’re having a bad day. Loving yourself and being at peace within you radiates on the outside of you.

3. True love is not demanding.

Your partner should never ask you to change if you’re truly loved. And if you truly love your partner, you shouldn’t expect him to change.

4. Sex is not true love

Most young people believe that once a guy or lady sleeps with them and maybe keeps coming back for more sex means the person truly loves them. Infact true love makes a man to have so much respect for his lady that he would not demand for sex until after marriage.

5. True love allows you to be yourself.

Being yourself in front of your partner can seem scary at first. Waking up without any makeup on, and your hair a mess? What about him seeing you when you’re sick, runny nose, bloodshot eyes and all. It’s something you want to avoid as long as you can. But you shouldn’t feel that way. feel comfortable be yourself and let your partner see you at your low.

6. True love comes naturally.

Do you have doubts about your partner? Are you not sure they’re right for you? If you’re asking yourself too many questions about your partner, your relationship, and your future together, then you’re probably not in love. When you’re truly in love, you don’t question anything. Its divine.

7. To get love, you must give love.

You can’t be in a loving relationship if you hold back. You can’t use love as a bargaining chip. Don’t tell your partner you love him only when he does something good around the house. Don’t give him the cold shoulder if he makes a mistake.

8. True love is based on friendship.

So many TV show relationships are based on friends who fall in love over time. It’s a great premise, and a nice daydream, but life isn’t TV. You don’t need to be best friends with your partner since kindergarten for love to last. Make your partner your best friend , confide,gossip and be open to each other. Friendship develops daily.

9. True love lasts.

Think back to those casual relationships where your significant other wiping his nose on your bath towel was enough to end it.

10. True love is committed.

It’s human nature to be attracted to other people, to allow your head to be turned by an attractive passerby. Don’t let this make you feel guilty.

11. YOU are the love of your life.

Don’t forget that you need to love yourself. Self love is important, but it’s not something you should achieve and then throw away once you’re with your partner.
