What does the true love mean ????

Hi LAYA&MOM
Umm.. nobody has answered yet. And I've got no opinion yet.

I like the following passage; seems some people feel love just as you do.

The image of Remedios (..) kept paining him in some part of his body. It was a physical sensation that almost bothered him when he walked, like a pebble in his shoe.

i will not say much about the true love, at least no particulary pattern that maybe is anticipated. but read as follow:
my girlfriend was here the last couple of days. and as i will see her again on friday it was not that hard to let her go. but this is about 3 hours ago and the driving itself just takes 1 hour. and she did not phone me, nor did she give me a sign that she is okay. she had to go somewhere today, so maybe i am just worried for nothing. but i try to get her on the phone for the last 2 hours............but nothing. i hope and pray to god that she`s fine
what i want to show you here is, that if you feel something like that and are worried so much about another person and would give everything, including your own life, just to save the other person, than it is in my opinion true love...................and this is what i feel

These days most people have forgot the meaning of true love. When someone sees a girl like Pam Anderson etc. he says I'm in love with her. This is not love, this is sexual drive. But you can't say, this is not love because you got no instrument to measure love, so people use word love for wrong notions. Virtueless woman and man is worse than an *****. Base of true love is virue and morality. If you like someone for these qualities, then I'm sure you are having true love.

Love is beyond emotion IMHO. It isn't a feeling in the traditional sense. It must be unconditional. Feelings waver. Love shouldn't. Once you fall into love, it is just always there. I believe it becomes a part of you, which is why many people die shortly after losing a spouse. They have also lost a half of themselves.

what you wrote sounds really nice, but unfortunatly i am no proponent of your point of view. i`ve fallen in love over 2 years ago and it`s getting better by the day. but that`s all that agrees with your meaning. there are just too many split-ups every day, so it can`t be. it just can`t. people change for lots of reasons and maybe one day you wake up and figgure out that you don`t care about the person next to you, at least not as you`re used to. i don`t think that this is a good thing, but it just happens every day
