those are some strong words jed.

ok my turn

im unsure of true love, ive never liked someone without them liking me back, or at least i think thats what happens, ive nevr been on a date never had a first kiss and im 18 for christ sake! :( Im a loser. and i always feel i dont deserve anyone cause i have no experience.
my life didn't get interesting until 22. plenty to look foward to you can count on that
 
Ok you knew that someone will have found true love and it's me...... The fist time we met she told her mom that she was going to marry me and her mom said she was full of s**t. We dated off and on for 6 months and boy did her dad hate me... he said that all I was after was her money.... they would come home and my motorcycle would be there and her car would be gone. We were married on October of that year and it's been 17 years and everyone that knows us says that we are soul mates and that we seem so in love.

I agree that we are really great together. She likes to go go go and I would be just as happy to stay home but we each give a little and it makes us each better.

Do I look at other girls? well yes but they don't give me the warm feelings that I get from just a few min. with my wife. We finish each others sentances and we know that certain spot that makes the other melt. You know some people would say that 17 years with the same person is an eternity but I would say it's only a good start .

Don't give up on love I was 23 when we met and up till then I had never been able to stay with anyone for more than a year and I ws wondering if it would ever really happen for me but it seems that when you just start living your life people will come into it to make worth living.

As for lust it's fine but as you go through life and things happen lust won't keep you comming home at night. Each time my wife was pregnant with our kids she was on total bed rest for 3 months and that ment NO sex. How do you get by in times like that you remember that after the ruff time will come the intimacey that only two people that are in love can know.

I hope each one of you will come to know the same depth of love that my wife and I have.

How many of u peeps still believe in love? True love? I really wanna know ur views on this. Personally right now I am having a serious struggle believin in it. I see so much heart ache, so much divorce and unhappy marriages, its super discouraging. Plus I've been burnt so many times in the past year or so from my past relationships that I'm just a little bit more than skeptical any more about it.....I want to believe in it though, so thats why I am askin u guys to tell me ur views...hopefully you will be able to give me hope and stuff. Cuz life with out love is a sad, lonely one....I don't wanna end up like that....thankz,

well sorry but heres my view - love=pain ,nobody can make another person happy -were all imperfect..Ive been married almost 9 years and am happy inspite of the fact-because i choose to be happy :D .IMO Love/maintaining a relationship is a hard ,painful, bumpy road (that noone would probably travel if they could forsee the ride :grinno: )But... it does make you learn things about yourself and others you might not learn (or ever want to learn) otherwise :grinyes: Love is like life -sometimes its awesome ,sometimes it sux -but mostly its sacrfice and work.
 
in this fast paced world of ours, a lot of people dont realize what it takes to create and maintain a relationship. Lately, its all about how gorgeous he/she is, what care he drives etc etc... these are the reasons i think why the us has a high divorce rate.

But it doesnt have to be that way. You have to spend time and work on the relationship , be smart and find the right person. This is a topic that has to be discussed over beer and in person. PM me if youre in the NJ area.. ;)
 
If you can ever go an entire evening, when you are both tired and sore, and spend it just reading or being a spud in front of the tube with out really talking, but still feel warm and content just because you know your partner is there and feels the same way,,,,that is love.
 
don't give up at such a young age. the times of love or relationships is tough as can be, but its the struggling to keep it going through all the fights and daily grind life throws at you. if you can still be with that person after dealing with all that, its worth it. the sex is good and better if kept alive and spontaneous, but being able to fight like dogs and still being able to share things and have that comfort feeling is what it is all about. my wife and i would let stress, work and kids get to each other and then all helllllo would break loose. but we always managed to forgive and build on the enjoyment we always felt with eacj other. you will find someone don't give up hope. it takes work and the ability to forgive big or small things. it will come to you, believe that.
