Love

When I think of love, I don't think of it as sexual passion for the other person. I look at love the same as Jesus did. I believe love is caring for someone more than yourself and willing to do anything for that person. I have realized the true meaning of love through my own experiences. When I had my first girlfriend last year in high school, I believed I was in love. But slowly, as time went on, I wasn't in love with her. I argued with her all the time and wouldn't want to solve the problem, I thought of dating other girls while I was with her, and we had too many differences and she wasn't willing to change some of them for me. When me and my first girlfriend broke up, I thought I would never find a girl who would love me for who I was. Then, out of nowhere, I found the perfect girl and I wasn't even trying to find her. Like my parents always said, if you stop looking so much, the girl will find you. Well my parents were right again. I found the perfect girl for me. We have been together for two months now and we've had our arguments and our differences, but we've always worked them out in the end. Plus, when she's been sad or angry about something, I am always there to cheer her up. This is an example of what I believe is considered love.Willing to care for someone more than yourself and willing to do whatever it takes to make that person feel better because you care for them and don't want them to be upset. Also, I consider love being able to work out differences and change certain things about you that need to be change. As you've read, I've made some changes about me and I've worked out differences with my girlfriend. The reason being I love her with all of my heart and I want her to be happy. Now that my friends is true love. Not wanting to be sexually active all the time and not caring what your partner feels or thinks about a certain situation, but caring about your partner more than yourself and doing things for them that you wouldn't do for anyone else.
