"Are you in love?" Most of us may say ‘yes I am’ even before I finish the question. But when the question becomes something like "Are you sure you are really in love?" Half of us may say; 'Wait a minute' and may take a moment to answer. Further more, if the question is asked like "Do you truly love her?" Then it becomes impossible to answer for most of us. 

Well then, should i say there are different types of Love? But you may not really agree that is an appropriate conclusion. If it is so, then why do we give different reaction when they change the question? Because we all know Love is not just a feeling. When you give into the life of someone and/or they give into your life without needing or desiring to get something back in return, you are likely experiencing true love. A true love birthed out of selfless action(s) and they can last forever. Why? Because the individuals giving the love were not expecting anything in return and therefore there is no moment of disappointment, following the action(s) birthed out of love, to cause dissension in or break up of the relationship. 

Many of us mistake an impulsive feelings of passion for love. Then cannot understand why our relationship(s), in which we "loved" someone, did not last. Relationships tend to come to an end easily once those impulsive sexual feelings are satisfied. Once we get what we wanted or desired out of the person we became involved with, then we no longer value that individual enough to keep her/him in our life or treat them well even if we remain together. Relationships was built on passion alone. It's so exciting and exhilarating at for a moment, then the conquest occurs and those feeling of arousal and passion subside. Many of us then left wondering, what happened? 

To truly love, you must let your feelings follow your wise, giving, selfless actions, rather than your actions following your feelings. Real love, true love is giving of oneself and one's resources without expecting anything at all in return. Who did you love today? Or do you not love anyone?
