What's love got to do with it?... Posted: 11/15/2006 1:22:29 PM
I believe that love is enough to keep two people together. On the other hand, there are different types of love, there is love between family members, love between friends, and then, the so called "romantic love" between a man and a woman. Many people confuse these kinds of love, and rush ahead and get married due to just a physical attraction. Like "we've been friends for a while and I like you a lot, let's get married." The thing is, even friends can feel attracted to each other but at the same time it doesn't necessarily mean that they are ready to move on to a more intimate relationship. Then they realize that no, they don't love each other enough to spend the rest of their lives together, hence why relationships end. Being friends with someone, even if you see them every single day is completely different than living with someone under the same roof, where you will get to see their bad habits that maybe you didn't know before and don't like. On the other hand, love is way more than just saying "I love you" hey, even I could tell someone that I love them. Would that necessarily mean that I really do love them? Not at all. It's very easy to say things, demonstrating them is a completely different story. Including getting up at 4 in the morning to go hunting, or holds your wifes purse whiles she is in the dressing room. That is love and total dedication, but so many people are to self absorb to understand that. They think " I'm not holding your purse someone might see me and laugh at me" I completely agree with robbygirl on this one. Guys in general are way too worried about looking "cool" and about putting up a good image in order to impress the world, and in doing so, ignore what's really important, that woman standing next to you that you say you "love". Think that the world does not feed you or buy you your clothes your life does not depend on whether you look good in the eyes of everyone or not. Like robbygirl said, too "self-absorbed". How do you show that you care? It's not only about that expensive gift or the huge bouquet of flowers that you gave her. It's good to tell her you love her whenever you get the chance, although you don't want to be too repetitive either. Sometimes just one look or one slight caress say more than you could say with a book. Forget what the world thinks, the person next to you is your number 1 priority and all you want is to make her happy. Small details like robbygirl mentioned, holding her purse if she goes to the bathroom, pulling her chair back so she can sit, holding a door open for her, helping her down or up the stairs, opening her car door... There are many small things that guys can do to make a girl see he cares. Differently from what the world today thinks, being chilvalrous is not a weakness, it doesn't make you any less of a man. If anything it makes you different from the world around you. Also, women spend a lot of time getting ready to go anywhere and well, sometimes they will change their hair color, or wear a new dress, or do something to look good for the man they love. Please do not be indifferent to those changes because a woman that does those things is a woman that loves you and wants to look good for you. Be on the lookout for any changes, even if it's very small, and make sure to compliment and thank her for it. That way, she will be encouraged to keep on doing it, and she will know that you care. Things like these do make love to be enough to hold a relationship together for years and years to come. There are many many things asides from this, but showing that you care and that you want to make her happy is the first step to a successful life with your loved one.
