lol! first let me put you write..criterion is a singular form of criteria and not criterions ![smiley](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/smiley.png)
And talking about having so many criteria for my lady i guess you are wrong...all i want is very simple
1.Sexual decency 3.Kitchen excellence 3.Pleasing to my eyes 4.And at least let her pretend to be GOD fearing
Thats not much innit?
And Yes i am single by choice os apparently if i want to marry next week its no brainer as we have many ladies presently on teh mountain as i write praying and fasting for a hubby..but marriage no be wettin dem dey rush into.
its better to be a single man or woman at 35 rather than to be a divorcée at 25 oh mr toks, tanks for the kworecshun, in bubu's voice ![embarassed](https://www.nairaland.com/faces/embarassed.png) |

Vikky014: As an emotionally weak girl i just decided on my own with the help of my sweet mum not indulge in this Love thingy in my teens to avoid hrt attack and it really helped me a lot to understand now that love btw a girl and a boy is jst for the moment using my female friends as a case study. .LOL am always the one to console them whn the hrtbreak thing happens atleast one of them learnt her lessons.....
It is always good to be friends on platonic level with the opposite sex whn u r nt yet ready to tie the knot. if u r nt too emotional like me u can go ahead and be in the romantic relationship bt whn the chips are down just pick ur pieces and move on
in summary i dnt believe in Today's I LOVE YOU FROM MOST GUYS. most of them want something from we ladies...just maintain ur lane let me maintain mine after all we can be friends not LOVERS... but in marriage i think couples grow in LOVE. MY MUM AND DAD Confirms it... Sorry babes just because ur afraid of hrtbreak shouldn't stop you from being in a relationship...it happens to everyone..the earlier you get used to it, the better. You dont conquer by fear or avoiding. 1 Like 1 Share |

Babes keep scaring me off with that line...CRINGEWORTHY!
The idea of love is relative. The common conception is someone that makes your heart pound, gives you butterflies blah blah blah. I differ. For me loving someone are the actions you take to be with the person till the end NOT the temporary excitement you feel in the early periods of the relationship. So saying "I love you" is reassuring your partner you'll NEVER LEAVE. If everyone sees love this way, some will realise the really don't love their partner.
Mostly women are a victim of this ignorance and they jump from one guy to the other believing the initial lust or aching desire (aka ''falling in love'') is the TRUE LOVE. It's usually like this:
- Babe meets guy - They have serious chemistry - They spend time together - Babe "falls in love" and they become serious - A year later, babe realises there's no more spark like before - Babe takes the frustration on the poor guy - Babe is introduced to new guy at a friend's party - They have serious chemistry - Babe breaks up with the old guy - Babe spends time with new guy - Babe "falls in love" again...
The pattern continues till she has had 10 bfs. This is VERY come with extroverted females. That's why I find them appealing for flings than serious relationship. The chill babes are usually the keepers. 6 Likes 2 Shares |

Too much sense in the write up. Makes a lotta sense. I've always affirmed that there's no such thing as true love in amorous relationship. It's just a temporal feeling which exist for as long as the other person dances to our rhythm. The earlier everyone realises this and flow with the tides like you said the better.
For everyone we claim to love wholeheartedly there's a reason behind it and once that reason evanesces then the love too dissipates like vapour. If true love existed there won't be any particular reason to love or get attracted to someone, it will just burgeon without a reason and maturate in form of a latency. There's no such thing as true love, it's all about vested interest. 3 Likes 1 Share |

Toks2008: Over the years i have realized that LOVE is the most wrongly used word in the dictionary.
Do you know that when your bae says "I LOVE YOU",more often than not,that person is only stating his her feelings based on what he or she is benefiting from the union at that point in time?Take away the benefit(s) and see if such person will still profess an undying love for you.
I have seen many people who professed love to each other suddenly make a 360 degree turn and then i tend to wonder if they ever understood that word love.
I have heard of a situation where a man or woman found it so easy to walk away from the spouse and children after many years just to conclude that what they felt all through the years was probably pity and not love.
It has become the norm for us to now see a million dollar wedding crashing down even before it began and then these same people who were all smiles and curdled up on the wedding day, exchanging vows will turn against each other with so much hatred.
Husbands kill same woman they made a vow to love and wives do same to their hubbies even when they have borne the same man children.
How many husbands can still tell their wives "i love you" even if she denies him sex? how many husbands will still love their wives if she refuses to do her duties as a wife in the house? and how many women will still love their husbands even if he fails to live up to his status?
Judging from all these happenings i have decided to stop using that word love and any one who uses such word to describe his or her feelings for the partner must really take a chill pill and think deep before uttering such.
If from the real life situation i see, i think it will be reasonable for anyone to wait for at least 20years of being with your partner before you can truly say those words "I LOVE YOU" even if we all know that even after 30years people can still turn against each other but at least 20years is good enough to pass that assertion.
I have come to believe that LOVE can only exist between GOD and man and what humans feel is just a temporary feeling of desire which can be in form of initial gragra(Adrenaline love), infatuation(Unreasoning love),Lust or maybe a superficial love as a result of what you are getting from that person and in the absence of such will diminish.
Yes maybe i am over-flogging it,maybe we still have true love between very rare partners but the truth is that i would rather seek for a true friendship, a true bonding which i have found to be more realistic than that facade called True love.
My advice is that anyone in any affair should not put too much expectation but should just flow with the tide because that person who is all over you today can make a u-turn tomorrow and you will wonder if that is the same person you ever knew...
I hope this makes sense. it make sense die.. that's why this gf and bf rltship isn't my thing. love shouldn't be use anyhow its sacred |

Toks2008:
And my answer is very crystal clear dude;Real Love exists only between man and GOD but what we have between 99.99 humans are flimsy conditional temporary feeling of affection mistaken as love....QUOTE ME IN HEAVEN. You are very wrong Mr Toks and I fault your line of thought considering the fact that you decided to go religious on the subject matter.
The statement in bold is far from the truth and as a matter of fact, nothing but mere conjecture.
Lets take a close look at the verse below.
1 John 4:20 (English Standard Version)
If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen CANNOT love God whom he has not seen
You clearly asserted that love only exists between Man and God, yet this scripture says differently. The scripture lets us know it is much easier to love someone who you can see than to claim to love a God you haven't.
In other words the criterium for professing your love for God would be to love your brother (Sister, Relative, Spouse, Stranger, etc).
There is also a scripture regarded as the great commandment.
Mark 12:31 (English Standard Version) The second is this: ‘ You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these
This was a statement made by Jesus and if it were impossible to truly love someone then it would mean that he gave a commandment no one could/can keep. But you know better.
The fact that people use the word "Love" and the next minute do something so silly that makes us question thier love doesn't mean love is a farce.
David was a man who loved God so much that God referred to him as a man after his own heart. Yet David killed a man and took his wife, thereby commiting adultery and he did other despicable acts but God never questioned the Man's love towards him.
You have to understand one simple thing, you don't need to spend 30years with someone to say the words "I love you". Love is a force that can be felt, it supercedes our emotions and it is the greatest power given to man.
We are still encased in our earthly vessel so there are times our actions might not be in consonance with love but it doesn't change the fact that love is real, love exists and we have the ability to love unconditionally.

Thank you my brother...trying to sell conventional gospel to people because you had 1 or two set backs in your relationship is unfair, especially to the younger ones. You do not lose when you love...what ever you give out comes right back to you.. Sow positive energy you reap positive energy===Spiritual truth. 4 Likes |
