Does True Love Exist?
Whether or not if you're realistic I would like to know your opinions on this topic since lately I've been struggling with this and feeling like there maybe a chance it really isn't and it sucks for me to not believe it as someone who is a dreamer and is very old fashioned and gets very intuned with the idea of love.
Now I understand if you're the opposite and have a very realistic approach to love and believe if it happens for you it happens for you and it doesn't it just doesn't.
However, I feel that approach is a very dreary way to go through life but as the saying goes "whatever floats your boat". Anywho, I will admit though I'm not fond of the term 'soul mate' I don't believe that nor have I ever believed in that I do believe in "mates" in other words, you'll find someone that's your other half but isn't necessarily extremely perfect or flawless otherwise how in the hell are they human?.
I also think when it comes to true love those who look for it sometimes look for it the really wrong places where they end up finding people that are either married, not who they say they are, or even crazy.
Then end up going back to those areas just to start all over again and not learning a damn thing!
So tell me, does true love really do exist?

why do you need
to see
whats behind the door
are the words
i love you
not enough
any more
why do you insist
on looking
behind the scenes
when you know
what you will find
will not be me
yet you hope and pray
that i will change
while wishfull thinking
becomes your cage
as you lay
on your barron bed
of dispair
believeing
one day i will care
to see
whats behind the door
are the words
i love you
not enough
any more

Fizzle said:I think love is a word we give to a multitude of different feelings of attraction/attachment. It's precise meaning is sort of relative.
This is a really important point. First you have to define "love" and "true love" which is not easy. And once you jump down that rabbit hole you realize how wildly different people's ideas of love really are.
It's fascinating to me because we all accept this vague, flowery notion as "love" even though it doesn't clarify or define anything whatsoever. We talk to each other about love and take for granted that we're being understood. But chances are, we're having separate conversations that only slightly overlap.
Personally, I don't think "true love" exists. However you define it, I think it implies perfect selflessness and no one can achieve that.
