    Oh man. I don't know. 



    How can anyone define "true love" anyway? Some loves are crazy and full of passion, some chew you up and spit you out, some are mature and selfless and kind, some are fleeting and sweet. Which one is true? All? None?

    She ask about being 'in love.'  True love is another thing.

    I interpreted "been truly in love" as "true love."

  • I guess everyone’s definition for ´true love‘ would be different and personal to them. My definition would be having the best friend possible only that friendship set on fire. So based on that definition then? :)

    That is kind of beautiful. Actually, not kind of. Just beautiful. 
    ...And now I am sad. My number has dropped to one. Maybe two, but I cannot remember that long ago for sure. 

    I'm going to post my question to you as a question for all. I wonder what other cool answers are out there.

  • Shouldn’t make you sad :) most likely good chance you have that ahead of you. I’ll look for your question later see what people came up with

    No, there are real definitions.  This is why words become bastardized.  In love, according to research on brain activity is that excited feeling of strong attraction to someone; when you can't stop thinking of them and speaking of them.   True love is the love that grows and survives richer and poorer, sickness and death.  Few people ever really experience that more than once.  When I was in college that stat on being "in love" was 17 times per lifetime.  I have heard others say up to 30.

  • I get that there is probably a one ‘true’ definition, but that doesn’t mean people can’t have their own personal definitions of what love is to them.

      Why can't anyone ever ask about true lust?  There's an area wherein I have expertise.

  • We can’t ask ’true lust’ question on this site cos we don’t think you could count that high. Your brain would explode and we want you to live.

    Dude I haven't thought about Beirut in a while, I'm glad you reminded me that they exist!

    As for true love, I don't think I've ever experienced it, I'm kind of a lone wolf. Not in the sorority-peeping-school-shooter kind of way, more like the quiet-but-smolderingly-sexy guy that goes to art museums by himself and knows karate, kind of way.

  • You know Beruit??? No one knows them lol. Okay so know Beruit, go to museums and know karate. You’re totally the kind of guy I would have fallen in love with back when I had a heart lol. This post was edited by Benedict Arnold at February 21, 2019 12:17 PM MST

    Oh god what a week I'm having! But ya know what, I've done this to myself. I have another factoid though that I know for sure is true, apparently the main dude in Beirut started playing the ukulele as a joke after he injured his hand, but he ended up liking the sound so much it became his main thing. I remember the first thing I ever heard by them, ohhh it must've been nye on fitty years ago...

    So that's true love, putting aside my precious movie time to follow a strange woman I met on the internet. Ahhh mi amor, can I not have two loves? Is there not enough room in my heart for both you and Jackie Chan?
