True Love Is Possible, Just Don't Give Up

Why Does It Take So Long To Find True Love?

For a select few, they find their love right off the bat, and never had to go through the painstaking patterns of weeding through those we encounter on missions of love, but for the majority of us, we pluck out several weeds just to find that magic garden we hope for.

Love isn't easy, and it takes patience, and above all, finding your very best friend.  Once you find this best friend, you realize all you need is this person in your life, and often people discover it's not the initial physical attraction that counts.  After all, many people don't find they are attracted until much later when it hits them in the face like a ton of bricks.

There is ultimately someone for everyone.  Your tastes and dislikes are matched with someone else that walks the face of this earth, but in order to meet that person, you can't settle on someone who hasn't even come close to reaching the point of no return.  This is wasted time, and although we may live many lifetimes, we really can only be focused on this one.

Because we have criteria for what we will and will not accept, you go through more people, which makes you feel let down like you're never going to find love.  This couldn't be further from the truth, because you'll realize having this set of rules to live by makes things more stable when that one special person does enter your life.

Each different person in this world is unique, and comes equipped with different standards, wants and desires.  Stick to them and you'll find true inner happiness finds true love.

Tips To Finding True Love

  1. Rather than just looking for attraction, find your best friend.
  2. Have a set of rules as to what you want in a person, and have the strength to admit if someone just isn't 'it'.
  3. Rather than trying to keep things fun in the beginning, be your true self.  Don't be one of those people who wake up in the morning wondering why the other person thinks we have changed.
  4. Understand your own self worth and respect yourself in order to get respect in return.

A Little Story:

My husband and I were never going to get married.  We had both been through so much trying to find that one special person that we just decided we wanted to have the freedom to leave if the going was good.  In fact, we also decided we didn't want to pretend and be realistic, and we spent two weeks laughing together as we discussed our 'bad' points that no one else could handle.  Come to find out, we both had the same issues, and with issues we didn't, we were sure we could handle them.  So we lived together happily for another year, and in the meantime got engaged, as that was now the next step towards commitment, and last step we wanted to take, only to have relatives asking "And how long do you plan on being engaged with marriage?"  The following year, we were married, and we've been married for nine very short years now, and still find each other to be our best friends, able to read each other's minds, and understand where one must pick up when the other lets go.  We have been a lifesource to each other, each growing in new ways, but growing together at exact dimensions.  It took me 33 years to find this, and I'm not kidding, and went through more people than I care to count.  I had to be picky to find the right man for me, and that's what you must do too, and when you meet this person, you'll know it's the right one, because you can laugh about faults rather than run from them.

Actually, after 30 years of disappointment after disappointment after disappointment I have given up.  My best years are now behind me, I'm not a young woman anymore, and there comes a point where you have to realize and accept that, as much as you want it, there just isn't anyone out there for you.  If there was, I would have found him a long time ago.  I spent years, no decades, looking, and did not find.

Yes, true love is possible, but in order to get true love, we have to be able to have a set of rules with relationships.  This is so important, because if we don't do this, we could end up settling for less than what we really want, which is not beneficial, and does not mean will be true love.  Following these rules may mean finding love gets harder, or that we are going through many differnt relationships, but everyone can't be our true love.  In the end, the person who fills the shoes of our expectations will be the best bet for finding true love, so don't be disheartened if you didn't find it yet.  (And thank you for the kind words you have said in reference to my poetry.  I love to write poetry, and figure it's kind of a waste to never have anyone see it.)

# re: True Love Is Possible, Just Don't Give Up

Well, I don't want you to give up on the fact that you not only deserve love, but that you will also have it.  The best years to me are those years that made me the happiest, which really didn't come about till later in my journey.  So I'd say your best years are not behind you, the best years are yet to come.  They say, and I really believe this, that there is somebody out there for everybody.  To me that means one body is meant to fully and completely match up to yours, but look around, there's how many billions of people.  That tells me the odds of finding true love, can of course be at any time, but with one person, and that can make things take longer than others to fall in place with the relationship area.  Some people just get the lottery relationship earlier in life than others, and sometimes people don't find love at all, but I bet those people who never find it ended up giving up.

"marinachristie", I do have one question for you though.  I thought you were a genuine reader of my blog, who felt very down about life, but when I went to see if you have a blog, I can see that you write positively like I do, and that you have a business.  I'm a little curious why you didn't write this comment on your site.
