Yes, true love still exist. That is why there are so many divorces. I was married with a man I knew he was a mistake for me, and finally it is over, but I could not face the truth, he finally left, so love is always there if you have the strength to leave a bad match.

yes, i believe in "the one" for everyone..i have been thru 2 marriages and divorces only to find that the one i am currently matched with is the exact opposite of what i thought i should be with...love is blind,let it be..that is the beauty of it. you just need to have faith in God and be brave enough to accept it when it comes to you. i wasn't looking for love,it found me.i was skeptical but i finally let my defenses down and i am very happy with the man that found me*smile* good luck and stay strong,it will find you

There is no such thing as love.
The 1st marriage is just practice.
There are levels of likes and dislikes toward people but to have that ONE person who you will spend the rest of your life with ... nope! If for whatever reason you end up not being with the person you THOUGHT you loved with all your heart, there's a chance you will find another, and another after that if that next one doesn't work out. So, to say one true love, how can that be.
In my case, I was married to someone, after two years, I left, then a couple of years later married another. But before them there was someone else who I would have liked to be with, that didn't work out. I'm still with the 2nd guy I married but in between all the years I've been with him, I've seen others. And finally I'm 'in love' with someone else, who I can't be with but Damn, if he asked me, I'd run to him in a second.
So, in conclusion: we are attracted to many people, 1/2 the time it's opportunity and availability as to when and how we can be with them. There's always going to be someone who we more of less have affection for. If one doesn't happen, another one will.

YES ,true love still exist.I am married to my wonderful husband for 21 years.We are a bi-racial couple :) I've never ,ever regret that I married my husband.
BTW: Orig.I am from Germany:)

Well, Hopeful I hate to disagree but I've been my spouse who also is not the same race as I either, for over 30 years and it's gotten SO boring. LOL. Race or time or anything else probably doesn't have one thing to with another though.

Read my profile, see my website, look at my photos. You will know who I am.

I am a lively person but when you live with someone who has little interest in most things and you have to drag them to anywhere, it takes away from the whole experience and makes it unpleasant. I thought if a person wants to be with someone because they say they love them, then there would be some 'give and take' in the relationship but when one 1/2 of them wants adventure and new experiences and the other would rather stay home and do nothing that makes it tough. I do go places with others and by myself but it would be nice to share the time with the one who is supposed to be the one who cares about you. (if they really do)

True love does exist! We do come across people who show us what we want in another. Sometimes we make mistakes with our selections and the one time we find our one person to love, worship, adore, share our lives with. I am not yet married and wish and pray everyday that when I do I will stay married. It must be very hard for people to start over after a marriage and children. Although there is hope in every situation! Best of luck and hopefully you find the person your heart truely wants to be with.

i agree w/ evryone whu replied to this post except for normlnorma...true love exists...

and to norm, just because u spend most of ur lifetime w/ someone doesnt mean u r w/ ur true luv...frm wat u said it sounds u nvr found ur true luv, but just settled w/ ur second marriage i blieve...but just coz ur life came out tht way doesnt mean there is no true, u just hvnt come upon urs...n there r ppl whu nvr found their true luv coz they settled for w/e tht came their way...
But Ponye, u dun hv to be one of them, keep waiting for tht special one...u'll find her..:) Gud Luck...

If there in that ONE ... why are there so many marriages? Each time someone gets married don't they usually think, This is the one?
If that's not the case and people just keep getting married until they find that one true love, that's a lot of wasted time spent looking AND hoping.
There a line in a song from many years ago, "if you can't be with the one you love, love the one you're with".
I say, don't waste time waiting and looking and hoping. It may or may not happen. Live life and make things happy each day with what you have. If things change tomorrow be prepared but don't count on it.
If someone wants to live in a fantasy world great. I do but for other reasons. Hoping for something that won't happen isn't one of them

"If there in that ONE"
Whoops! Spell check, haha
That should read ...
If there is that true ONE

I believe humans are naturally loving creatures. Look at babies; there is no such thing as an evil baby. I think the world just manipulates and molds people, and sometimes changes them from their loving ways.

As for soulmates, I think that there are several people that a person can be so in love and compatible with, that people really have several "Soulmates". Alot of people don't even find one, but if you're born under a lucky star, you'll find one (or maybe more) and find true love.

LOL, are you sure about that? IMO humans like any other animal are selfish and greedy. Survival of the fittest and all that.
What they learn is to cover up those traits.


"I think the world just manipulates and molds people, and sometimes changes them from their loving ways."

I do agree with the blank slate theory but reserve the right to research other idea that also sound plausible.

I definitely believe true love exists. The key to a good relationship is finding the most important elements that you are not willing to bend on. Then make sure you and your partner match with them. Then compromise and communication will keep the relationship strong. With those factors in place, the relationship will succeed. If not, it was not meant to be. Digging deep into your heart and finding what you really want is a good start. Good luck, you've been through a lot.

I do not understand what that means. Things sort of just happen. I don't know what you mean by 'elements'. Thank you.
