wow what a deep question?
I think we all believe in love, i mean because love is everywhere- we love our parents, our siblings, our friends so love is everywhere but the romantic love that everyone dreams of.. You know what, i think i truly do believe in it..
Ok maybe not the whole true love kind where you give up your life for another person because frankly i think thats too easy, true love should ideally be when you love someone, and yet learn to live without them and accept that all that matters is that the other person is happy..
Love i think is basically just acceptance, acceptance of who you are and thats it..No matter how life goes, when you love someone, you accept them and trust them and are there for them..thats it , no questions asked..
However i also do think love is exploited in today's society, ppl say love as often as they say "whatever" or something...It should be said when you mean it from your heart..and the reason ppl get divorces is not because they dont love someone, its because sometimes ppl don't realize how hard you to work to maintian and develop a loving relationship....its not at all a easy process..
and someone said the whole "love is friendship" that is like my philosophy..i mean friendship is hte foundation of all relationship so if u cannot be each other's friend, then how can u spend ur life with them?
i know i m jumping all around tis causei have soo many thoughts on this topic.. :)
