saw this at the confession room..well, still  saying it again that the sad truth is that true love is not all romance, dancing, candlelight dinners and sex. True love is about commitment, work, and responsibility. If you survive the early years when your bodies are young and virile and lovemaking is passionate and frequent you are lucky. You either have had something going for you and have learned some skills that have helped you survive. Hopefully it is because you really have found true love. True love doesn't always survive though if you haven't learned to deal with some disappointments and how to deal with them. Many young people have had to deal with heartbreaking disappointments in their marriages.

Don't think that if you live together that it is going to determine if you are right for marriage. I believe that if you are not willing to commit to a relationship in the beginning that you are pretty much doomed for failure. That is not saying that it hasn't worked for some people, but if you are just testing the waters, it is not going to work.

True love is beautiful. That is not saying that the people involved in it are beautiful, physically. Movie stars, etc are all glammed up and airbrushed in our magazines and movies. Statistics show that in spite of all the beauty and glitz that most of those relationships do not survive. It just confirms that attraction to each other physically is no guarantee that a relationship is going to survive.

What is the secret? True love is commitment, responsibility, cooperation and work. After the romance and physical attraction wears off you need to work at it. If you respect each other, and really care about the wants and needs of each other you are half way there in having true love. Some of the relationships that I am the most impressed with are where the couples stand by each other through the hard times.

True love is feeding a mate when they are unable to feed themselves. True love is going with a spouse through chemotherapy. True love is going with a spouse through a colonoscopy. True love is not giving up through the hard times. True love is giving each other dignity and respect. It is telling a spouse that they are still beautiful to you even though they have lost their hair, teeth, or physical beauty. It is being able to see the handsome, or beautiful person in their eyes after all their physical beauty is gone. True love is seeing their beauty in their soul.
