I was just wondering how far any of you are willing to go for true love. And when I say true love, I mean the kind of person you feel is your soul mate, the perfect one for you that you're willing to spend the rest of your life with?

Would you wait for them if you couldn't be together at the moment? And if so, for how long?

I know me, I'm willing to wait forever for the one I love....

I've already been thru more than I care to share...
And the sad thing is, I'm still willing to wait for him to get himself together.
I was complaining on another thread that I just want him to love me as much as I love him... we have a special bond- but I want more than he can give me right now.

the end of the street

Right over there on the couch----->

I learned in my own experience, that for a woman... A MAN must take the strides to prove his love. Most women are willing, but its the man that chooses to ask for her hand in marriage.

This may sound sexist, but the old school rules apply here when it comes to relationships for the most part. (I wouldn't know about same sex marriages, not speaking of those).

For me, I foolishly gave my whole heart and soul to a man and made efforts and put in real work for years thinking it was true love. When in reality, TRUE love for a woman shouldn't be something she needs to work towards because its the man that should make strides towards wooing her. Its in the gestures of trust and love that a man shows to a woman that makes her know that he really wants her... so how far will I go? No where, true love will have to come to me. I will not search for it but my heart will be open.

So far, after being alone for some time, healing my broken spirit, someone has come to me.
He is a good man, funny smart and handsome. Time will tell by his gestures towards me IF he wants me to be his true love or if he's "Mr. Not the one", so.... we'll see.

I guess it depends on what is asked of me and what I feel I'm getting in return. I'm practical that way.

If it's truly everything I want out of a relationship and feel completely and utterly supported and loved than there's probably not a lot I wouldn't do. I'd have to know that they'd do the same for me, whatever it is they ask, and if someone truly loved me, they wouldn't ask me to do anything I believed to be unethical.

Oh god!!



I would probably do anything I could for true love so long as it didn't hurt somebody else or break a law. I would dive right in and give it my all.

But I've given it my all before, and let me tell ya--make damned sure you're not being hoodwinked and know deep within your soul that it is true love, and not just some momentary desperate need to feel like you belong to something!


So for me, I'll go the extra mile. I just need to ensure I know what I'm going the extra mile for.



Love is fun.

That's the trick, isn't it? Knowing the other person would do the same for you.

I have always been a giver and I don't see that changing. But I have learned I have to be more careful and discerning of who I'm giving to.

i nearly moved across the world for someone who really didn't gave a damn about me, but who i loved very much. silly naive thing that i am, i'd probably do something similar for someone else i loved that much. i figure i'll eventually grow out of it, maybe

You are a wonderful women, beautiful inside and out. I mean that and can say that because I have met you.
You deserve better than a self righteous bloke.

I did more than most people would do and I am still doing a lot. I hope we will stay together even though there are so many obstacles in our way .

Serious said:

ZombieKitten said:

Serious said:

I went all the way for my "Prince Charming!" I ran off with "my true love" into the sunset twenty years ago...and after twenty years, I decided I had enough of the charming "little boy" charm I had fallen in love with... It becomes another name for putting blame on others and irresponsibility after so long...
