Love. Science defines what could be understood as love as an evolved state of the survival instinct, primarily used to keep human beings together against menaces and to facilitate the continuation of the species through reproduction. So how do we know whether have we found the ONE for us? The one who we can trust and spend our whole lives with without growing tired of them. Well, that you'll have to discover yourself. Don't go in search of love, love will find you. And when you do fall head over heels over someone, you'd better give it your all to win their hearts.
Remember this, only once in your life will you have that extreme feeling of satisfaction of being able to say the girl I love, loves me too because the actual fact is you only fall in love once. You can convince yourself that you're over that person you used to love but the fact is you still love them. At certain points of your life, you'll wonder how different things could have been if both of you had made it in a relationship. Some choose to name their daughters/sons with the names of their one true love. Back then, marriages were an eternal thing. Once you're married, you stick with your husband/wife forever no matter what. Now, marriages have become a joke. Seriously, people talk about divorcing their spouses as if they mean nothing. The ugly truth is most marriages now end up in failure and the main reason for this is their spouses cheat on each other. The thrilling sensation of spending a night out with someone else tends to convince many especially males to do so. They grow tired of their marriages and tend to look for someone for exciting. It's pathetic, really.
When you say you love someone, it means you'll do anything for them. You'll do anything to see them smile. When they're in pain, you feel the pain too. You'd catch a grenade for them. There is no time frame for when you'll find your one true love. Teenagers though sometimes behave like the world is over when they break up. It's probably because of that unbalanced hormone levels. As you mature, you'll get better at accepting disappointments. If it was meant to be, it'll happen. Teenage boys now tend to 'play' a lot with girls' hearts. The word is, whoever has had the most girlfriends is the coolest and gains respect. Girls aren't toys. They have emotions too. They withstand pain that none of us males ever will. Some boys use the excuse for a love failure as a cover up for them to 'play' around so that they're free of the guilt of hurting someone. It may help at first to talk to many girls so that you get over someone quickly but sooner or later you'll realise that you're wasting your time. That one person will always be in your head whether you like it or not.
Those who really earn my respect are those who lose their spouses yet decide not to remarry for the rest of their lives. That's what I call true love. A great example, would be Chris Medina who dedicated his life to his fiance who's paralyzed due to any accident. And for those lucky enough to be with the ones you love, don't ever hurt them. Be grateful for what you have and for those who haven't found your one true love, good luck in your quest. May Cupid strike an arrow at you :)
