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.
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.1

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!!!0 -

Of course this. There is no greater love in my opinion.
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.
You're spot on again!0 -

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.1 -
Still waiting for my storybook love1

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.

Nope, its one barren relationship to the next full of lies, subterfuge and mistakes until you die. Sometimes they last most of your life.1

True love--ah yes.0

Love in a romantic relationship/life partner type? Yes, it exists - just not for me. I saw it with my mom and dad before my mom passed. I have friends and family whom seem to have found their "true" soul mates. It is just not meant for me, but I love myself I'm happy with the rest of my life.
I love my daughter and son unconditionally, so I do feel that type of love exist for me!!!1 -
As with everything in life you get out of it what you put in.
Love requires Effort, if you're willing to put in the effort, you're likely to find real love.0 -

Absolutely I
* have experienced it
* cherish it above all
* choose to give unconditionally every day
* have experienced unexpected losses of it
* have had one loss nearly destroy my soul
* do my best to choose love always

Sure...but I think it is rare and real love doesn't happen overnight...a relationship can grow into real deep love..it takes learning about the person and caring about that person more than yourself...and I think the relationship grows best through adversity....if the relationship can survive adversity, it will be a wonderful one...forged in fire, if you will....
Unconditional caring, concern....there is no love at first sight, but lust at first sight...See Shakespeare's Sonnet 116...

Sure, real love exists.
It doesn't always look like you want it to or feel like you expect though.

Yes I think it does exist if you come in with the mindset that nobody is perfect and we are prone to make mistakes. Accept them for who they are, as well as accept yourself for who you are. Do not try to change them.0
