Yeah, but there's different types. Love for someone, a hobby, an ideal, a show, or something, you know?


I believe it's real. I'm not in love with anyone, but I do love some of my passions and interests, beliefs.

we broke up last Jan. and i started another relationship that lasted 6 months, moving on didnt help lol.

You tried to move on but after that relationship ended you felt regret from a previous relationship. What do you define as a healthy relationship?

its easier to hate than to love. Does love truly exist? Yes it does, is it easily accessible? No..
The only thing you can love easily is your kids as far as relationships goes its much harder to say you love that person and truly mean it.

i wanted to get engaged, but some say i ended the relationship over something dumb. who knows. But that was my longest one

well there you go.. you invested 5 years to this girl and didnt for anyone else. you said you wanted to engage. i think thats why you feel the way you do.

i dont know the details so i cant tell you to try to fix things or let it go tho.

commitment, loyalty, trust, consideration, being understanding as much as possible, having a few disagreements, having some jealousy but not too much and being able to give each other space when needed.

That's all what i expect really from a healthy relationship, besides the personal preferences.

Does true love exist? Of course it does. True love is love period, do you love your mom? Would you risk your life to save her if she was in a tough situation? I would if my mom was in a life or death situation. Why, because I love my mom and I would do anything for her. That is true love. When it comes to that special woman in your life, you have to feel it deep down inside. When you wake up in the morning and the first thing you think about is her, that is love. When you know with out a shadow of a doubt that this person is the one you want to spend the rest of your life with,that is love. If you truly belive in God, then you have to belive in love, because they both come hand in hand. I can tell you from personal exp. I am with a woman and I have been with her for the past ten yrs and I still love her the same as I did when I first laid eyes on her. I can tell you this, we will be together for the rest of our days, in this life and in the next. So when you ask if love exist....yes it does!!!

Understanding, loyalty, trust, consideration, communication, quality time, space, etc. are encompassed by commitment. Commitments do not exist independently from the other things mentioned and not mentioned.

*** is up for interpretation. Some couples don't; though, most couples do. I've only known one couple that didn't, and that's because she had a terminal illness. The guy didn't want kids, so it worked out for both of them.

*Jealousy should never be part of a relationship. Jealousy indicates an inequality in a relationship and an insecurity.*

True love isn't really what many anticipate to be. It can be mutual or one sided. True love doesn't really pertain to ***, but mainly depends on what one feels for another, kinda like sacrificing or even suffering just for the goodwill and happiness of another.

It is a special class that is offered once every four semesters at my university called Love, Agape and Altruism. I took Mental Hygiene (basically group therapy) and Old Testament one semester and the next semester I took Love, Agape, and Altruism and New Testament. That year changed my life.

it had all of that, until a situation occurred and trust began shift left.

I'm tired and I don't want to get too deep into it. You have trust or you don't. Regardless of what happened that made trust shift, it did not have trust. By your own declaration it was not a healthy relationship. There is nothing to regret about an unhealthy relationship. You deserve a healthy one. Good luck.
