L.O.V.E (pt.2)

Tips • It does not make you a bad person to desire someone else's love, even if they do not love you. However, to truly love someone, you must let them be free. It is selfish to blame them for your feelings. • There are many types of love, for example: a mother-son love is different from a best friend's love, which is different from a romantic love. Don't be ashamed to tell anyone that you love your friends as much as you love anyone else in your life. • You have to find someone that will suit you, someone you feel comfortable with - not just someone to make love to. • Sometimes love is all we need. As a word, love can be found worldwide and is often used to describe compassion and/or emotional attachment. Accepting those you love for who they are is part of love. You also need to learn to accept yourself before you can accept another. If you cannot love yourself, how are you to love another? • Love genuinely. Do not compare your feelings now to what your feelings were when you were with another mate. At times, we can experience rejection. • Realize that love is a feeling that wikiHow can describe and attempt to assist, but ultimately, you are the one who must take action in order to discover love. • Do things that make the other person feel good and happy, but do not smother them with gifts and attention. • Consider some tips about what people in love do. o People in love are sensitive to each other's needs, and endeavour to meet them even when they do not feel like doing it. o Men and women may be equal in value but different by nature. People who truly are in love give their mates "space" to develop their potential and find their fulfillment in life. o Love does not brag. People who are truly in love refrain from rehearsing their good traits just to show off. Bragging in a relationship often is really defensiveness. o People who are truly in love do not insist that their way is best and demand that their mates give in to them. o People who are truly in love are considerate of each other's feelings and courteous in their actions toward one another. Sadly, sarcasm is a way of life for some couples. They ridicule each other, belittle each other and trade jibes with a fury. They may say it is all in fun, but it leaves wounds that will someday become festering sores. o People who are truly in love look out for their mate's best interests as much as their own. Those in love should be concerned not only about their own individual interests, but about the interests of the other as well. o People who are truly in love control their anger when the other displeases them. We are all human, and all humans feel anger periodically, but we only express our anger in destructive ways when we are counting on someone else to meet our needs. o People who truly love each other do not take pleasure in their mate's disappointments or failures. o People who truly love each other treat their mates with absolute trust. Some husbands and wives torment themselves with groundless suspicions. If you look for trouble you will find it every time. o People who truly love look forward to their relationship growing more meaningful and precious. They have hope. Which is an attitude that happily anticipates the good. It isn't being blind and denying that there are problems, but it does look beyond the problems. People who truly love each other do not allow their problems to rob them of their happiness. • Remember there is no failure in love, because once you tell somebody whom you love, that you love him/her, then you have already succeeded in love. ref: http://www.wikihow.com/Love date: 22 October 2009, 17:05, MY
