    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 here, but still young enough 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.

    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.

    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.”

    ― Bob Marley

    Perfect!!

    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.

    Just don't say this to anyone on your first date - it's a complete turnoff to analyse love as an equation!

    mhm thats where timing ???? is playing its part. How long were you guys together? i am also ending my5yr relationship, and we still agree to see eachother, sure she thinks its wrong an it does feel heavy on me aswell but why Loose everything weve been through,expiriences,the life lessons that will guide us, theres so much to simply throw away because of a word called Love, a definition with standards and subconcious programing. i am not against it but there is weakness integrated in its structure. And i am forced to look at Love as an equation because when things go wrong they dont strike me subliminaly or when things go right they must be trully honest. Thers so much more to it than 1 thread, and im just sharing but a fragment of a personal perspective. ????

    For me, trust, respect, and communication are absolutely vital. Anything that violates that trust, such as lying and infidelity, breaks the foundation of the relationship. I'm going through this now and it's harder than I ever imagined it would be.

    thats where im at to because i have a deep deep love for this man( im abit older and i think it plays a part ) i would like him to be in my life , but he broke off our engagement in a pretty immature way and i realised that i dont want to be dragged into negative emotional drama... so the line must be drawn...it has affected me in aot of ways and now the fog has been lifted from my eyes i am just giving to myself and my career which is really important to me

    i should say broke off and then took it back .. ending our engagement but then wanting a relationship... confusing... and now im just going u know what ? sure we can be friends or lovers or whatever but i just want to live my own life... weve been together for 2 and a half years. and i was married before that for 9 years and on my own for like 10 months...

    What would you say makes Love succesful, thoughts tips?

    Compatible personalities & communication styles + similar backgrounds/values.
    What would you say breaks Love, experiences, advice?

    Staying in a bad match bc of misguided beliefs ("marriage until death"; "i can save him/her"); lack of effort.
