How do you define Real love?

I've read so many thoughts about love, but this article I just read are exceptional.

I love how the author limned and expounded the meaning of Real Love.

It surrounded me with pure rapture after perusing this article.

Here are the take away excerpts:

"real love is an unconditional commitment to an imperfect person. 

It’s true.

When all the butterflies have fluttered away and your wedding day becomes a distant memory, you will discover that you’ve married someone who is just as imperfect as you. And they, in turn, will come to learn that you have problems, insecurities, struggles, quirks—and body odor—just as real as theirs!"

Because you're loving a normal, unique and imperfect person. Just like me, you, us.
We are all just humans, born to be real and deserves to be accepted and be loved.

"Love is so much more than some random, euphoric feeling. And real love isn’t always fluffy, cute, and cuddly.."

True. Real love also has it's opposite side of that marshmallow feeling. Sometimes you'll feel the sourness in your relationship. I sometimes questioned myself why did I choose to love my partner.
Until this beautiful quote captured me. I read it twice, thrice to understand wholeheartedly.

 “No one falls in love by choice, it is by chance. No one stays in love by chance, it is by work. And no one falls out of love by chance, it is by choice.”

So, that explains everything. :)


Love, Pie
