I wonder this a lot of what everyones idea is of true love is it stability is it money is it feelings. To everyone the meaning of true love is different butalso how they find it is different. So I ask you this what is your idea of true love and how do you find it such as in the others job security money or feelings?

true love... well i got a poem that describs mine. and it's not stability or money. feeling are a big part of it i would spose. but it runs deeper than that. love also has loyalty. but knowing if someone is trueing in love is up to them to decide.
will it ever leave? this feeling i have
it fills me up and leaves me empty
brings more joy then humanly possible
and enough sorrow to break me
one would think that after broken promisses
and dieing dreams. after all the truths and lies
this feeling would go away
after a month of not speaking.
after thousands of tears shed for him, and me
after the searing pain, and the burning kind too
then the daily grinding kind
after you relise you dont think of him as much
after life has blow in soap opera conditions
and now life has settled without a purpose
there is happiness but the depression never ends
and then there is this feeling
the one that logically should have left long ago
or at least turned into something ugly
ugly, but easier to deal with
but this feeling for some reason will stay pure
this feeling that is more than just an emotion
its a life changeing event, and earth quakeing
this feeling of course is love. for him i swore
it would never leave. and i was right.......
it's not bright and shiney any more
the edges are scuffed with the reality of life
what once was silver bright was not silver at all
but it is steel. for me anyway.
scuffed, bent, washed with tears, but never broken
no, never ever broken. it will last a life time and more
this love i have for him, for him so beautifull
and so tragically human.
i will love you forever, mon seule

true love?? you wouldnt know it if it was right in front of you. i guess what im sayin is u dont know how much you loved something until its gone. it definately isnt money, love describes a state of mind which you have for a person or thing, not dollar bills or fancy possessions.

True love comes with time and patience.
Its having respect for someone who respects you back.
Someone you feel safe around, comfort, and able to be yourself around.
Someone that knows who you are and loves you for it.
Someone who you can rely on but if for some reason lets you down you would know it was for a good reason.
The next one is a big one in my books... someone you can trust and not get jealous over.
Some one who knows your fears, weaknesses, passions and what makes you happy. And knows the right time to use anyone of thos to make you feel good.
There is so much more you really cant describe in words. You just have to find it because "true love" isn't your life long partner. True love is reserved for the child you have with the one you love.
Honestly I cant passably think of something that would break my heart more than loosing something I've created with the person I love.

WELL,
I think the word love is fornicated
and miss concepted.I think sometimes its used to just get what you want..If you catch my drift....I do know that if you take time with some you stand being around and you see the rest of your life with that person thats the one for you....
The whole concept of one true love or soul mate is out rated its some forien words that that are fairy tale delusions wake up and be real join the real world and you see what you get........

Some of you people are right on with your ideas. I thought I had all the answers but apparently not, I'm still searching, but when you get to be my age, we are already set in our ways and it's hard to teach an old dog new tricks, so to speak. My idea of Love is an intenseified friendship, someone you trust with your life, a soul mate, but even when I thought he will never leave me, he did. sO i HAVE TO SAY THAT lOVE IS A GAMBLE AND WITHOUT TAKING CHANCES, WE HAVE NO HOPE OF EVER BEING IN loVE, BUT WHEN IT HAPPENS, YOU WILL KNOW IT. sOMETIMES IT'S RIGHT IN FRONT OF YOU AND WE DON'T EVEN SEE IT. You young people will probably have your hearts broken many times before you find the right person, No greater pain than the loss of someone you love and no greater feeling than being in Love.Chi

There is nothing like the feeling of being in love!
I think the song by Huey Lewis (I want a new drug) said it all!

I have been in love once and it was a really random moment when I realized I truly loved him in that way that deeply changes you.
we were sitting on the couch of all places. I was reading a book and he was playing his guitar. we sat there together but doing our own thing for about an hour and I looked up at him and it hit me that I truly loved him. I felt so completely myself around him. we were able to do our own thing but do it together.
I think that's very important in a relationship. you are your own person, they are their own person, but you can be yourself together. so many people try to change themselves in a relationship to mold to what they think the other person wants. its rare when you can completely open up to someone and show them the good and the bad. not sure if that makes sense but that's my 2 cents

I don't know what kind of music you like, but Tammy Wynette sang a song called TILL I GET IT RIGHT. i'LL JUST KEEP ON FALLIN IN LOVE TILL i GET IT RIGHT. I'm running out of time.to get it right. Nice post. Chi

There was no one big thing, just a lot of small things that were not right. We reached a time when we were either going to grow together or grow apart and unfortunately we grew apart. If its not right its not right, no matter how much you care for each other. Luckily we both were mature enough to realize it and end things before we got married or had any kids. No regrets though, it was a hell of a time while it lasted

I don't think that there is true love....you know why? because true love makes reference to permanent. Love between a man and a woman is forever changing because WE are changing. You can love someone with all of your heart but as the years go one you change (that's normal) and either they change with you or they don't then the deepness or closeness just changes. It doesn't mean either one of you are naughty it just means that you are progressing thru life. The trick here is to grow together and always show each other respect or it will never last. HONESTY COMMUNICATION RESPECT is the ingredients for true love.

This is the best definition of what true love is that I have found:
The Love Chapter (I Corinthians 13) 'I Will Show You a More Excellent Way' 
Even if I speak with human languages or even those of angels, but do not have love , I have only become like the noisy gong or clashing cymbals. And if I have prophetic powers & understand all mysteries & all knowledge & if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. I could give away everything I own to the poor & sacrifice my body to be burned (so that I could brag about it), but if I did not have love, I have gained nothing. Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It is not rude, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. Love is able to bear all things, always believes for the best, always hopes & always perseveres through all things. Love never fails. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. For we know in part & we prophesy in part, but when perfection comes, the imperfect disappears. When I was a child, I talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became an adult, I put childish ways behind me.
Now we see but a poor reflection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known. And now these 3 remain: faith, hope & love. But the greatest of these is love.
I would briefly summarize the first several verses this way: without true love I can often be nothing but a selfish & immature know-it-all loud mouth who gets on one's nerves. The rest of the verses speak for themselves.
This is the best mirror I have found, to look in when evaluating if I am expressing true love.

True Love, A tough defination to ponder upon.
The feeling when you are apart you are not whole.
Being able to tell the other how you feel about them with just a look into their eyes.
The willingness to give your life for them should it be required.
The ability to let the other person be themselves and not trying to change them. (Well except maybe training him to leave the toilet seat down, that is
Letting her have the last chocolate bar when she has had a very hard day.
Truely, there are as many definations of "True Love" as there are people. It means something different to each person.
Finding True Love is much harder than even finding an honest politician.
