    For me, the most important thing is trust and respect. If i can't trust you or respect you, then I can't love you (and this goes for all relationships, not just the intimate ones :) ).

    break my trust, or lose my respect, relationship over.

    ETA, I met my husband when I was 17, I had just been through a pretty rough time and I was 'broken'. He was very patient with me, over time he gained my trust and respect and then the love followed. He has been my rock and helped me rebuild myself. We have been married for 18 yrs now, there have been some bumpy patches, not within our relationship as such but family stresses that have worn us both down, but he has always stuck by me, and me by him. We are a couple, we are a partnership. Some days he drives me insane, but in reality i wouldnt change a thing about him :)

    Well, I only have one soulmate. However, I did think the person who hurt me bad was my soul mate. In reality, I was just young and stupid :) I did learn what wasn't love in that relationship though, so it wasn't all wasted time :)

    Love hurts, love scars
    Love wounds, and marks
    Any heart, not tough
    Or strong enough

    To take a lot of pain
    Take a lot of pain
    Love is like a cloud
    Holds a lot of rain


    Love hurts
    Love hurts


    I'm young, I know
    But even so
    I know a thing or two
    I learned, from you


    I really learned a lot
    Really learned a lot
    Love is like a flame
    It burns you when it's hot


    Love hurts
    Love hurts



    Some fools think of happiness
    Blissfulness, togetherness
    Some fools fool themselves I guess
    They're not foolin' me


    I know it isn't true
    I know it isn't true
    Love is just a lie
    Made to make you blue


    Love hurts
    Love hurts
    Love hurts


    I know it isn't true
    I know it isn't true
    Love is just a lie
    Made to make you blue


    Love hurts
    Love hurts

    There's a quote (I don't remember who said it) about the key to a long marriage is that two people never fell out of love at the same time. I believe that.

    I've been with my SO 8 years. There have definitely been times -- sometimes months -- where I don't think I was in love with him at all, but it always comes back. I suspect he has felt the same on occasion. We always care about each other, though.

    Relationships are work. You may fall in love, but you have to work to stay there.

    Also, I believe in soul mates, but I don't believe there is only one person who can be a soul mate to another. I think we have several. Some of them are romantic soul mates and some are friends or other types. My best friend is a soul mate, but I don't want to marry her or have sex with her.

    I read all the posts. Butting in here, but at least it's relatively on topic. I'm not that young compared to some on this site (younger than some of you though ), but still young enough (27) that I'm constantly exposed to "nice people finish last". That you have to be a jerk in order to have a member of the opposite sex attracted to you. It's so stupid. people have enough flaws w/out trying to be bad that it makes no sense to purposely be like that on top of your real flaws.

    Trust, forgiveness, honesty, never forgetting you are a couple if you have kids so arrange for time away from them since you are going to be alone again once they're gone, caring and some romance even if you have to be the one to put in the effort if they aren't that way inclined normally.

    Bob said it best ...

    “If she's amazing, she won't be easy. If she's easy, she won't be amazing. If she's worth it, you wont give up. If you give up, you're not worthy. ... Truth is, everybody is going to hurt you; you just gotta find the ones worth suffering for.”

    I hear guys say this a lot (about needing to be jerks to get the girl), and then i hear my single girlfriends saying that there are no decent blokes out there. If everyone was just true to themselves when looking for a partner, i think they will find the right person.

    Good timing, good pheromones, adequate hormone, and a dash of oxytocin.

    True love=time

    My interpretation (written by me):

    "Goodnight kisses placed upon the flesh of eager anticipation; a morning bouquet of roses found withering along the murky farewell. They are not forgotten, because these memories hold the lost souls of poignant emotions. Their tears drip honey upon the core’s sentiment. Breathing into the darkness, the cold sensations becoming the objects of desire; sorrow beckons the hope of amnesia to erase an eternity. Those feelings never go away nor can they be easily discarded; once the heart is stained by love it carries the mark like a scarlet letter." - http://1meremortal.me/2013/02/19/scarlet-letter/

    lol so true, it gives a creepy vibe xD . Overall im just trying to say its got a procedure a set of events,scenarios, chemical reactions in the mind etc. the list can go on for a while. But when these Steps or process is understood its just a matter of executing your actions and manipulating scenarios towards a specific goal. A perfect example is the process of a succeful magic trick. lol im just saying, no one is wrong and no one is ever right.
