Question Posted Wednesday February 20 2008, 3:51 pm
Ive tried so hard to find love and whenever i think i find it, it hurts me. Someone please tell me what love is?
My idea of love, You want everything to do with a person, but you dont even have to date them, just need your little moments that make you happy, and if you get a kiss your lucky.
Is this wrong?

The definition of love is different for everyone. You need to ask yourself what love is to you. As we get older and we experience life and love...we think, "oh goodie, I'm in-love." Actually, it is hard to find true love and be in-love with someone if you have not experienced love itself. We all have different standards as to what love is and what love should be. What do you want out of a relationship? That is the key. If you go around looking for love, chances are you will get burned. Write down what it is you want in a relationship. It helps to look at it on paper. When we look for love, we are looking for something to fill a part of us that seems out of place. A "void" if you will. Many of us make the mistake of trying so hard to fill this emptiness inside ourselves, that we overlook what it is we are actually seeking. True love takes time. You have to get to know someone on a much deeper level than you normally would with others. Compatability is essential when it comes to love. Don't be fooled by those who will see how much love you have to give and then take advantage of it. This sometimes can be very hard to see. I know that it can be frustrating putting yourself out there only to find out it wasn't what you expected. We have all done it, and we have all experienced the heartache that comes with it. Love is great friendship. My grandmother told me once...(a wise, wise woman), that "you could break the heart of a boyfriend/girlfriend, or spouse,...but, you would never break the heart of your best friend." I believe this whole-heartedly because it's true. I believe that this is why the divorce rate is so high. If you think about it...it's true. It also helps to figure out if there is a pattern as to the people you are surrounding yourself with. And what I mean by this, is what are the similar characteristics or patterns that you can pick out from the ones you have been with in the past that have broken your heart? It helps to also write these things down. Some how, things seems much clearer when we see them on paper. If you would like, you could send me a private message with your list or lists, and I will be more than happy to walk you through the problem areas. Then, maybe together we can figure out what it is you are actually looking for, and what it is you actually want. Keep your head up...these things are usually very easy to figure out. I hope this has helped, and please let me know if you would like further assistance on this. [ askallyanything's advice column | Ask askallyanything A Question ]

I think that love is just an expresion used to tell someone how much you care for them. If you love someone then you are willing to do anything you possibly can to protect them. If you love someone you love them for who they are inside. Love is an indescribable thing that is locked deep inside every person just waiting to come out. Love is a tingle in you body, that shoots fireworks all around. It is a delecate, fragile, helpless and wonderful all at the same time. Love is so many different things it is hard to explain! but when you think you are in love, you know it is something you have never felt before,, somthing indescribable but wonderful at the same time. Sometimes it could make you sick to your stomach and somtimes it will make you fly high in the sky!! Love is a wonderful feeling that everyone wishes they had. and don't worry..it will happen someday...so don't rush into somthing. You will know it when you feel it so just let it happen naturaly. So don't go serching anymore, if it is love, it will come and find you!! Good luck and just go with the flow of things!!
