    I think love does exist, going by the dictionary definition.

    I love my family and all the pets that I have had, I have loved friends before.

    As far as "a real love" (I assume you mean in a relationship with a SO?) I believe it can exist too.

    Of course. But like weight loss, it's a *kitten* of a lot more work than most people are willing to put in.

    You will know the answer to that the moment you become a parent.

    So true

    I believe it does and true love is effortless. I don't think it should take "work" to really love someone. What takes work and effort is making a relationship last. The love part is a no brainer.

    I think the qualifier "Real" love is pretty strange. Like the over-romanticized story-book love? I've always figured love was more measured in levels in that you can love someone a little, a lot, and everything between, and it comes in all kinds of different flavors and can change over time. Love is a weird concept.

    Of course...sometimes in the case of romantic love it takes longer to find someone you mesh with on that level

    Of course this. There is no greater love in my opinion.

    Yes real love exist - but love don't love nobody. But I don't think unconditional love exist with a companion.

    In my opinion it's the only unconditional love. Everything else is conditional. And I say that as a happily married woman of 12 years.

    It exists. What my husband and I have - it's real. Well, okay, I can only speak for myself...but I believe he feels the same way. I feel as though he is truly my soul-mate, my missing piece. It's a feeling of completeness and contentment that you really can't explain. We met later in life, in our very late 30's, so it isn't like I had no experience with romance and relationships. This is different. We've been together 18 years. Married 17. We've had squabbles, I'm sure we've hurt each other's feelings, but nothing like a serious fight in all that time. Even in our worst moments, I'm never afraid for my relationship; never worried we won't make it.

    There is nothing like the "real" thing.

    The love of your own kids mostly. I believe people can ALWAYS find another companion if for some reason it doesn't work out with their current one. And at that point they can easily fall out of love.
    I don't believe in "soul mates" though. People who claim that will have had to have met all the people on Earth to assure that's happened IMO. Not likely. Those claiming it are usually just selecting from the few relationships they've had and staying with their possible best choice.

    But how do you REALLY know? What if you met someone else with the same features, personality and traits, but less of the flaws that may annoy you and you get more love and attention from that person in return?
    There are 4 billion people on Earth. You've probably had less than 50 relationships, so how do you really know?
    I'm not trying to throw doubt in your current relationship. I just think the whole "soul mate" thing is over simplified.

    Good answer Megan. I agree, I think it does exist but seeing how two people can act as one team is difficult at times.

    Of course!!! The ability to Love and be Loved is the greatest gift that God has given each and every one of us! The difficult part is finding the right one to share that gift with!

    Never give up....
    Love & be Loved my Darlings!!! :heart:

    I know. Head to toe, front to back, I know. I wish I could explain this, but I can't. I know this the way I know my mother loved me.

    Love is the one thing you can't explain, you can't prove scientifically. But that doesn't mean it isn't real.

    I so agree with you. You know. It cannot be explained. I thought I was in love before and then I met him and it truly was soulmate, we circled each other for years, family (never met), moved 3000 miles away in the same exact town (never met), both moved back here and started talking through family connections and when we finally met we worked less from a mile from each other. It was like the universe kept telling us "here they are" but we kept missing each other.
