@op, well said, thanks.

But in all these, love survived or are sustained by SACRIFICE and some advisable level of mature compromise. Its my honest opinion that anyone who wants to be in love (relationship) should be ready to make sacrifices and compromise sometimes: expect the un-expectable and be ready to accept changes that will definitely come into the relationship as time flies. With these, love can never die but may be threatened.

Unfortunately, what many young people call love today are actually not love in the real sense of lovity. 85 to 90% of it May be infatuation, fuckism or fuckology, etc.

DON'T GET ME WRONG

hahahahahahahahahaha

The minute you realize that love has died in your relationship, that’s when you know that the end will soon be following in its wake.

Love is a very strange thing. No one can really give love a proper definition, because no two loves are the same. There is no greater force on earth that would be such a mystery for many. They say that love never dies a natural death, and I’m here to discuss what kills it.
When it comes to love, I admit that I am but a fool. What I have learned from love, I have drawn from experience. I can never really rely on books, because too many of them have turned out to be mere delusions of a beautiful mind.
Is there such thing as forever?
Being a lonely soul, I find myself wandering from place to place. I try to find meaning in my life, and perhaps listening to people’s stories gives meaning to my seemingly colorless life. One thing that fascinates me is listening to the stories of couples who have made their love last. I have learned the hard way that nothing really lasts in this generation. Everyone is so used to living a fast-paced lifestyle, even love gets cheapened in the process.
I have found love, lost love, only to find it again. Time and time again, I find myself picking up the fragments of my shattered heart. I would find solace in talking to people, in listening to their stories. I have become fascinated by what they have to tell me, because their stories of love make it seem all the more genuine, and not something that you could buy at the dollar store.
I’ve heard stories of people breaking up, telling me stories that they had “fallen out of love” or that there was “absolutely no chemistry left.” Stories like this leave me terrified. If nothing lasts forever, how could love?
Why people fall out of love with their partners
What exactly causes love to flee from a once perfect relationship? Here are 10 reasons why love, despite promises of forever, can sometimes wither away into nothingness.
#1 Love dies because of unrealistic expectations. When one is in love, one tends to get such unrealistic expectations of the entire relationship. While there is no harm in putting your partner on a pedestal, there is a fine line between idealism and being blind to the entire thing. Remember that all those romantic films and novels have a one-dimensional feel to the characters and situations, and your partner is only human, prone to weaknesses, biases, and faults.
Such is the beauty of real love, choosing to love someone despite all their frailties. Unrealistic expectations can kill relationships, because expectations can lead to disappointments when these expectations aren’t fulfilled. Unfulfilled expectations can then lead to feelings of inadequacy and betrayal, which ultimately cause a relationship to fail.
#2 Love dies because it wasn’t built on a solid foundation. When love is built on the weak foundation of self-doubt and dishonesty, it will eventually crumble. Even great s*xual chemistry isn’t solid enough a foundation to withstand the hurdles that your relationship may face. Friendship, as strong as it may be, can’t be the only foundation to work on, either.
You need trust, respect, and honesty. You need perseverance to get through love’s trials. Building a relationship on something as fleeting and flimsy as s*x, infatuation, or a mutual flirtation will only guarantee failure.
#3 Love dies because it wasn’t really love to begin with. I have heard many stories of couples falling out of love because they didn’t feel like it was love anymore. Most people fall into a state of infatuation during the start of their relationship, and they tend to look at everything through rose-colored glasses.
Once the honeymoon stage is over, they realize that things aren’t the way that they used to be. The thing about relationships, the real ones, is that it gets better when the two people involved grow and move forward together. In the case of infatuation, the connection is only as fleeting as the initial thrill of attraction.
#4 Love dies because of betrayal. Trust is an expensive gift, and one should never expect it from cheap people. How far does the saying, “Once a cheater, always a cheater” go? Truth be told, I have known what it was like to be with a cheater. I can tell you now that the experience is horrifying, and when one has been cheated on, one gets a feeling that one can never wholly trust again.
When one has been betrayed by the other, it can be hard to trust that person again. It is because of this that love dies a slow and painful death. It becomes like living in a personal hell, where your doubts and paranoia consume you and cause your relationship to crumble.

#5 Love dies because of fear. It’s okay to be afraid of losing your partner, but the problem arises when you’re so scared of losing them that you end up doing irrational things to keep them around. Sometimes, holding on to your partner too tightly can cause them to feel suffocated.
You may think that you’re just doing what it takes to make your partner happy, but you’d be surprised at how well people can smell fear and desperation. And when this invades your relationship, you’ll find that love gets pushed to the sidelines.
#6 Love dies because of the lack of growth. The years tend to change people, no matter how subtle the changes may be. Couples in a healthy relationship allow the years to help them to grow into better versions of themselves. They find ways to enrich their relationship, allowing it to mature with time.
However, there are some couples who try so hard to hold on to their honeymoon period that the relationship never progresses. There are also some couples who bring each other down as a way to keep each other on the same level. These actions only serve to stunt the growth of the relationship.
#7 Love dies because of old hurts and old lies. There are some old wounds that never really heal. It could stem from the hurt of betrayal or disappointment or resentment. Some old wounds can lead to grudges and pent-up anger. When these old issues remain unresolved, they fester and feed on whatever good things are left in the relationship, making the couple realize that their pain, anger, or resentment is stronger than the love they bear each other.
#8 Love dies when there is no trust or honesty in the relationship. The very foundation of a good, solid relationship is trust. When you find yourself constantly wondering where your partner is, or constantly doubting your partner, you know that there is something wrong with your relationship.
Trust is what holds the relationship together. Trust is what gives one peace of mind in a relationship. Very often, many have found that they have invested too much trust in a relationship, all for it to go to waste.
#9 Love dies because of incompatibility. While it is true that opposites can attract, it is compatibility that would be the deciding factor in a relationship in the long run. The honeymoon period of love would allow you to glaze over whatever faults and idiosyncrasies your partner might have. But time will eventually allow you to see if your relationship will last.
This would allow you to open your eyes to the truth, and sometimes, you’ll find that no matter how great things were from the start, your ultimate incompatibility will drive you apart.
#10 Love dies because romance took over. Let’s get one thing straight: romantic love has to die in order for a more mature love to grow and prosper. Romance can sometimes look and feel like real love, when in fact, it’s a façade that hides the true issues in a relationship.
Love isn’t all about romantic gestures and flowers and candlelit dinners. Couples must learn to shed the trappings of romance in order to see that love is also about hard work, overcoming trials together, and growing as a couple. When a couple is blinded by romance, they see love, but it’s an incomplete picture.

When you find that the love in your relationship has died, don’t let hope die with it. You can mourn and grieve, but in the end, you must know that you’ll have to get up and move forward.

You may be a nice person. But to ensure that your date has a good time, here are a few dating rules for men and women that should never be overlooked.

Dating rules aren’t set in stone.

But after many dating experiences, there are a few incidents all of us come across in a date.

Some are good experiences, while some are not.

You may have your own dating rules too. And in all probability, they may be great ones.

But if you want to skip any bad experiences on a date and ensure that it’ll be a classy one, this is all you’d need.

Dating rules for classy men and women

There are a lot of dating rules that can make all the difference between a good one and an abysmal one.

Remember these twelve tips, and almost all the time, you’ll end up making a great impression on your date and having a great time too.

#1 Don’t be late

This is basic etiquette. Walking in late to a business meeting is terrible, but walking in late to a date is even more so.

There’s a potential chance of meeting the one you could spend the rest of your life with. By being late or careless on a date, you’re making it rather obvious that the date isn’t of much importance to you.

Always be on time, and on the grave circumstance that you’re forced to be late, let your date know ahead in time that you’ll be late.

#2 Never walk out or stand a date up

Halfway through the date, you may be convinced that the evening would be a total failure. Or you may notice your date just as you walk into a restaurant and realize that you don’t want to be with that person.

But no matter what, you’ve fixed the date. Be polite and considerate enough to have a pleasant evening with your date. Sometimes, you may end up meeting a great friend or even a potential business contact through a failed date.

On the other hand, how would you feel if you were ever stood up or walked out on halfway through the date?

#3 Show your best side

Dress up and try to look your best when you meet someone on a date. It’s very disrespectful and demeaning to walk in shabby when your date’s spent a while trying to look good for you. If you’re not sure about the date attire, casually bring it up when you’re fixing the date or let your partner know if you intend to dine in an elegant restaurant or have a casual dinner.

#4 Knights and damsels

Manners and etiquette aren’t just a way of letting the world know you know how to behave. It’s also your way of letting your date know that you respect them. On a successful date, a man has to be the chivalrous knight, and a woman has to be the elegant damsel in distress, because that’s just the way both s*xes expect their dates to be.

#5 Cleanliness and your breath



Clean nails and good grooming habits are something that should never be overlooked. But there are a few other details most people forget. Did you light a cigarette to calm your nerves before the date? Make sure you don’t smell like an ashtray.

And after the meal, always excuse yourself to the restroom to pop in a breathmint or do it discreetly while you’re at the table. If you’re lucky enough to kiss on a first date, you don’t want to smell like a restaurant’s kitchen when you get closer to your date.

#6 Touchy manners

You may touch your date once or twice during the date, but if your date mate doesn’t reciprocate your touch with a warm smile or another touch, don’t push your luck. Don’t ever get touchy feely unless your date’s getting touchy feely with you. Flirty touches can seem repulsive if it’s not mutual.

#7 Don’t get drunk

You may know your limits when it comes to drinking. But sometimes, you may end up feeling tipsy or drunk with just a few glasses. And once you get there, there’s no way your date can end well. Avoid having more than a glass or two along with your dinner. It’s a precaution worth taking to avoid any embarrassment.

#8 Prepare yourself for a few conversations

Your date may be excited to meet you and get to know more about you. But at the same time, it’s not easy to create exciting conversations with someone you just met. So prepare yourself with a few interesting conversations so you’d always have a few pointers in mind if the date night gets silent and awkward.

#9 Don’t pester your date

It’s easy to get carried away when you’re having a great time and indulging in interesting conversations. But one of the biggest dating rules you should remember is to never get personal or persistent unless your date is comfortable with that conversation.

If your date doesn’t want to talk about exes, stay away from that conversation. Don’t pretend to become their personal shrink and ask your date to open up to you and reveal all in no time.

#10 Be sincere and truthful

Be sincere about yourself and in your compliments. Don’t weave astonishing stories about yourself and your achievements just to impress your date. You’d end up looking more like someone who’s too desperate.

On the other hand, compliment your date about something only if you genuinely feel it. A fake half compliment can seem more insulting and embarrassing to your date.

#11 Talking about exes

Exes are a hot topic on first dates. It’s easy and something that can stretch through dinner if someone’s got a dramatic story to share. But don’t talk about exes. Perhaps, you could ask your date about when they broke up, but don’t go into details.

Reminding someone about an ex wouldn’t do you any good. It’s distracting, and most importantly, it changes the focus of the date from the both of you to both of your pasts.

#12 Don’t have any s*xual expectations

S*xual intimacy is a nervous thought that’ll linger on the back of both your heads. Both of you don’t really know what to do once the date is over, you don’t know if you can chance a quick kiss or hope for something better. As exciting as a date can be, ending a date can be quite complicated.

But when you’re stepping into the date, drop all your s*xual expectations. Think of having a great time and nothing else. And once both of you are done with dinner and if you feel the vibes are right, take a chance. Going to a date with high s*xual expectations will only frustrate you even if you had a great date.

These twelve dating rules are great starters that can help you create a charming impression on your date, and have a great time yourself without overstepping any first date boundaries.

The minute you realize that love has died in your relationship, that’s when you know that the end will soon be following in its wake.

Love is a very strange thing. No one can really give love a proper definition, because no two loves are the same. There is no greater force on earth that would be such a mystery for many. They say that love never dies a natural death, and I’m here to discuss what kills it.
