I think it’s important to define what “true love” means, because love means different things to different people. For me, a simple act of love is listening when I talk – not reading the newspaper, fiddling with tools, or getting distracted by an ant on the counter.

So, I guess a sign of true love for one person may be a sign of disinterest or neglect to another.

Isn’t is funny how we keep ourselves in denial? We suffer through the same inconsiderate treatment over and over again and when we finally tire of it we allow ourselves to be led back to the same insanity by simply being told what we want to hear. The truth may be staring you right in the face but once you hear those words you question the truth, you deny that he could be so cruel and uncaring, you tell yourself he loves you when you know that the way he treats you is not the way you treat someone you say you love. When you’re always made to stand at the back of the line and it doesn’t look like your position is going to be changing, know this, there will always be someone that will be allowed to cut in front of you. When promises are never kept his word is no good. When his disrespectful ways are always your fault, and you have many, and he never has anything positive to say about you, he’s just playing you. You have something he wants and as soon as he gets it he’s gone, he won’t call, he won’t write, he simply “walks away” and justifies it by making your fault. My only expectation of someone who says they love me, is too “love me”, I don’t see that as an unrealistic expectation but, as I have learned, it is. Thanks to my denial I am empty, for two years now I have been lost to love and loving, I am lonely at times but when I consider the alternative I’m okay with being lonely, it passes rather quickly and there’s definitely no denying it.

Hello fitness girl,

Thanks for taking the time to comment! One of the best ways to tell if it’s true love — not just infatuation — is time. It’s hard to be patient, but honestly…if you can wait, time can be one of the best signs of true love.

I’m in a relationship right now and we’re celebrating our monthsary this day but sad to say he’s not on my side right now because he’s far. And I don’t know if its for real or its just an infatuation just as what you’ve said, but still hoping for the right guy to come.

Hi Laurie,
Thanks for sharing, I found what you’ve written very useful.I’m in a relationship where we don’t have the same life goals or share the same faith. Moreover, even though he tries to give me advice to improve myself, I feel put down. This suggestion stem from his concern yet I don’t feel accepted when I hear this. I wonder if I should still continue this relationship.

I know i’m in love, but my ex, that I quite possibly just cannot get over. It’s not like i’m refusing to but i’ve tried, and anything and everything I do just can’t get him out of my head. I know i love him because all I do when I think about him is smile, I felt something for him, and I still do. I get a tingling warm feeling inside me, in my heart, when I think about him. It makes me happy when I think about him..but the thing I don’t know is..am I falling in love alone. I haven’t talked to him about all of this, but I would just like to know before I make a fool of myself.

Hi Lacie,

I don’t know how common it is for women to experience infatuation when it comes to buying or selling homes…but I bet it happens fairly often! Realtors are often attractive, charming, friendly, expressive, and extroverted — and those qualities make them very appealing.

Sometimes infatuation can just be enjoyed. It doesn’t have to have the potential to become a true love relationship…it can just be fun and harmless!

Hi Kerrie,

I’ve had plenty of crushes on guys out of desperation — and have stayed in relationships out of both desperation and infatuation! It’s hard to break those relationships off because we think the right guy won’t come along, or we’re too old to wait for him.

But, it’s much worse in the long run to stay in a relationship that isn’t right for us, versus waiting longer for someone who is a good match.

Best wishes with this new guy….I hope you can see clearly if he’s the one for you or not.

Laurie
