Is there true love without interest? i personally think that a great number
of people today go into relationships putting love in forefront but having a
hidden agenda. Love is suppose to be something highly cherishable since it's
never easy to find. What do you think?

I think ' true love' sounds like s fairy tale.
I think love is not enough.
Can't live on it.
Won't keep people together.

So many other factors , other than ''true love ' for a relationship to work

no

^^ ....shortest reply.........now lets see who can fill a whole page up

and constant effort from both

I think the best thing I ever heard is when someone asked "what's the secret to making love work?"

the response "it's not a secret, it's the last word you said, lust is easy, but love, real love takes work, and a dedication to succeed"

That's true but also i think love should be the main reason why you are with someone not material stuffs

Interest in what?
Each other? Similar goals? Compatible interests?

What is "true love" compared to "love?"

You're using vague terms that should be defined.


I think a great number of people today go into a relationship thinking they "win" if they seem to magically feel love, and if the relationship doesn't give them the love high they think they are supposed to feel then it's considered a bad relationship that should be burned, destroyed, and scapegoated.

IOW I think people go into relationships looking for emotional gratification (which includes love) more than a partner in a relationship or paying attention to who the other person is, only how good they can/do make you feel.


Not to the detriment of the other person, of cherishing "love" more than understanding the other person.


I think it's really easy to idealize the way things "should" be.
Lot's of people have "successful" (they're both happy, content and/or fulfilled with the relationship) relationships where the primary "reason" they are together isn't love.


That's what I think.

we live in a world where you do have to talk about practicalities.
love doesn't pay the bills or put food on the table.

part of loving someone is having admiration and respect for that person.

it's hard to have that for a person who does nothing.

Two seperate things that can't be combined. Both overused and cheapened by our overcommercialized and ever inflating economy. Sure, both exist. They are neither specific to any one person place or thing nor do either stay the same. They both, like we must, evolve. If we do not keep ourselves current, AND stay true to ourselves we cannot have feel or truly experience either.
