Poll: Do You Believe in True Love?

[Phyroxis]

Definitely not. I don't even believe in regular love, let alone a special "truthy" kind. Come to think of it, I don't believe in any emotions. They are just irrational states of mind. I've never met someone whom I would be sad for if they died.

Thats interesting.. Why do you feel that way? Its kind of creepy that you'd say something like that.

I believe that every man has his right for an opinion, aswell as the right to love whoever he desires. Doesn't matter if that is true love or not, if you love someone and are in a relationship, atleast you're not alone right? But then again, sometimes its better to be alone that in bad company. So i'm going to have to say no. I don't believe in it

 

[iron codpiece]

Yes and you might find it more than once.

I am going to be the dick here (I apoligise in advance)but it is my view that soo many teenagers delude themselves into thinking they are in love (Okay delude sounds harsh, but srsly guys). I have heard people who were going out for 2 weeks talk about how inlove they were. Maybe it is because most (not all) teenagers lack the experience in the area (experience does not mean sex -_-) or are just not mature enough to understand the emotion. I truly believe love only happens a few times in a lifetime, so then why are there so many people my age claiming to be inlove? because we have no idea what it is.

Don't be sad dude, while 2 years is a long time there is probably the girl still out there who you will love when you are ready to know what true love.

I think teens are so ready to be in adult relationships they mistake many emotions for love, I don't know though, I have never been in a real relationship so feel free to prove me wrong!

I've got a friend who is a lot like that. He went out with a girl for 3 weeks and he wouldn't stop telling her he loved her.

She dumped his ass a week later.

'ell if I know.Can't tell until you've even had an idea of regular love I guess.

Do you believe in true love? Do you think that there is a one and only for you?

Please define your parameters for "true love" since everyone's definition is different. As far are the "only one person for everyone" goes, I think it is total crap. Think about the small percentage of women you met in your lifetime. I am going to be generous and say 1% for simplicity. Now, you don't think that you couldn't have met another "true love" in another 1% or another? (don't try to make the "no true Scotsman" fallacy, btw)

Just as I said it before, you believe her to be your "one and only"

She's the only girl in this world who can make you happy and you "can't live without her."

I was a fool for believing this. To think that there is 1 person out of almost 7 [b/]billion[/b] who you are meant to be with and she just so happens to live in your area. You were at the right place at the right time. That's bullshit.

There will always be someone better suited to you.

I believe in it, but I also believe I'm never likely to experience it myself, and am more than likely to die alone.

I unfortunately share your sentiment. *sob*

 

[vamp rocks]

im not sure.... but something like this is generally going to be people dont beleive in it or are wary until it happens to them

 

[ShadowKatt]

Yeah, I don't believe in love. I believe in tolerance. Find someone you can stand to be around, and there you go.

 

[Instant K4rma]

Im going to quote the great move "Good Will Hunting" for this. "Love is caring about someone more than yourself." If you can find someone like that, then yes, I think its true love.

 

[Merteg]

I'd say there isn't, though, what do I know?

 

[ArcWinter]

I do not understand what the OP is saying. True love? This would mean there is false love, which there is not. There is love, a chemical reaction in the human brain which creates infatuation, sometimes without prior interaction. That is it. True love means nothing, it is a romantic concept that someone thought would be funny if people thought it existed. Love does exist, and I assume that is what you are talking about.

EDIT: OK...one thing I think I need to add here...just for clarity. When I met my husband, I was old enough to have had my heart SMASHED INTO PASTE more than once. So, I'm not coming to this discussion with a lifetime of gumdrops and rainbows. I'd been engaged before, and dropped when his family disapproved of me. I've travelled the world with a man and been abandoned on the other side of the world. I *KNOW* what it's like to be betrayed. But now, in this life-space I'm in, I feel like writing thank-you cards to all the jackasses who made me miserable back then - for two reasons. Firstly, for leaving, so I could be free to meet this man I'm so in love with now. Secondly, for teaching me just how RARE a good man is, and to thoroughly appreciate this gift.

Yeah, i have to admit, i was 19 when i met my husband. i'd been 'in love' before, but this was the first guy who i thought i could be happy with for the rest of my life. We got married just after my 20th birthday, and i was in hell until the day before my 23rd, when we filed the papers. The divorce became final last month, and i thank God it did because otherwise i might still be attached to him.

i think that true love is something people have to find and experience for themselves. But i also believe that some people aren't going to find it.

We should start a cult called "The We Don't Believe That We Will Ever Run Into True Love Cult".

We would probably get a lot of people there. Then we could tkae over the world or something. TWDBTWWERITL cult will be victorious!

I think this is VERY true. But, even when I was convinced that I wasn't ever going to be one of the lucky ones, I couldn't deny that it existed for other people, thanks to my parents. it was a good thing, really, because it made me more willing to stay single rather than settle for someone who was sub-standard...

 

[Pandalisk]

Hell no. Love is just a chemical reaction to get you to procreate. The actual "relationship" once the chemical stops being produced is just one of convenience and need.
The woman needs some one to pay her attention and give her things, the man needs sex.

I really wish it was more than that, how depressing eh.

 

[FallenRainbows]

Love isn't love unless it forever. So if you don't love her any more you never loved her. Even if they destroy you by cheating you STILL love them. They don't love you, but you can't help it. You can leave, begin anew with another, but if you loved them, you always will.
