    If we accept something or someone as true, we expect him/her to be true from our perspective. Doesn't it mean that we expect him/her like what we want? We don't accept them as they are. They can be quite different than us. They are true themselves and we are true ourselves but we don't match. I believe that either we accept them as they are and never try to change them OR we just move on. Quick conclusion of any relationship as Love can often be momentarily and then we feel betrayal which is actually our unsatisfied expectations.

    Yes you are making sense. Firstly the gender roles have changed where the woman must work to help support the home so yes many are losing their identity as such. The other major roadblock is that to love you need to love yourself first. if you do not love yourself then no matter who loves you the relationship needs you to love you to give it as well..

    The problem is basically that we borrow other's definition of LOVE, and each one of us start applying it, to check if the OTHER stands worthy of what we THINK love is, but never get down to find out from our inner self what our love is. Thus we start framing the other, but never frame ourselves. And slowly we can see that we never alLove love to bloom, but constantly nip it in the bud, with various rules.

    Thus we can conclude, there is a gross misunderstanding right from the root, for everything is only borrowed thoughts through books, and never realised thoughts.

    "Am I making any sense?" is a fitting way to close the article, we are yet to arrive a consensus as to what LOVE is all about. We can also say that, as we stand now, we are progressing senselessly and without any clue about essentials of life.

    Nevertheless we need to keep our efforts in researching and defining LOVE , for it is only the pursuit to find it, will eventually get to reveal what love is and where it is hidden or fallen out and in what state and condition it is.

    "....the love is able to be felt once again.." : This is key. Since we are still humans (and not saints yet), we should allow for multiple iterations of the love-hurt cycle, if at all hurt happens, and learning lessons about ourselves and others after every hurt dip. Quite often, we under-rate the causes on one's own side (defensive) and over-rate the causes on the other side (blame game). Or over-rate ours (self-pity). At times, it can do good to under-rate others' faults (forgiveness).

    Seeing things as they truly are, requires to balance these assessments in moments of calm. To the extent one gets closer to truth, to that extent one gets closer to true love.

    At our levels, true love is too much of an ideal, a pursuit that requires these iterations. It can sound illusory at times because it takes a lot of time for mutuality to develop and grow between people. But, in the long term, love and truth are worth the time and attention.

      well said.. We must never stop loving and just continue whatever we find worthy of loving. "Pursuit" is a great word you applied in your note. "Pursuit" is something greatly absent nowadays with many just jumping from one to another like monkeys, where we get to doubt what is their ultimate. The beauty is that they only look next to what they wish to jump onto, but never realise the preciousness of what they are standing on OR the level that they have achieved, since they always think of the next best thing to do.

      They never pursue or get to love people around them or in contact with them, and ignore them since it is not what they want or what they are looking for.

      A cloth store is a great analogy, for they just enter the store with a blank mind, and look for something extraordinary and unique , and thus chuck or ignore anything on top.. to only get tired. Whereas there are also quick shoppers who already enter with a preconceived mind, and just pick what they want and leave.

      Ultimately we only get to the confusion, which gender is shopping which other gender.. ?? and who is fabricated for who ?? and what is this "love" in between ?? LOL!..

      It leaves me to the conclusion from all the comments that "love" is liberation and what is taught or conditioned in our mind right from the beginning is something related to physical aspect of human being.The intense,real and deep connection which i think everyone yearns for at some point of time is something which perhaps could not be bound in any labels.

    Love is an emotion. It needs a catalyst to spark and set it in motion. This motion requires nurturing and caring. It needs to grow as in a plant. It is how we take care of love. The hurts the wrongs, will contribute to a negative growth.
    Truth may be hard to accept if it is not perceived in the same way.

    "... When something you accept as true turns out to be false, you can be hurt..."

    ~ my Take : no point in finding true n false. Just accept all. Problems won't poke!

    **
    "why this love is momentarily for many and why people are still clueless that what their real inner core is about..."

    ~ my Take : Takes Time for Water to Flow Out of The Filled Glass.

    Prayers.
