Love has never been defined since man began, so we have to use our own hearts and mind to decide. Love isn't all about good looking man/woman at all time, its just physical attraction. Love is respect, wanting to help that person in any way that you can; protect them from harm; knowing that each other will be there; feeling safe with that person; proud of being with them; sharing your hopes and dreams together and feeling like you can conquer the world together. Knowing you will be together no matter no matter what and continue on until the day you pass away. "Till death do us part."True love is when one cares about someone else's well being as much as one cares about one's own. True love stands together in equality and balance to what is honest, true and caring not only in romantic love. "It is the kindness of heart, soul and mind."For you, what is the meaning of true love? Share your point of views about love.

The true meaning of love is not easy to say,if you love him,you will aways want to see him and hear his voice,you will be afraid of leaving him,if he is in trouble,you must try your best to help him,you will try to know his past and try to like what he likes.
True love is that you love him more than love yourself.

Hi leah, it's good to find someone here with the same last name as I do! Anyway, for me true love is that feeling you have when you know you share the same feelings and emotions with that one particular person. It's having that instinct of caring for this person's needs and feelings. It's being comfortable about yourself when you're with that person. True love is not easy to find. But once you have it, there's nothing else in the world that you could ever want. Don't you think so?

Real love is knowing that you'd do (almost) anything for someone, if it was going to make them happy. It's parents sacrificing things so that their children don't go without.
It's partners doing something they hate because it will make their partner happy.
It's also about letting people go. As a parent, you need to love your child enough to let them grow up, and sometimes make their own mistakes.
As a partner, you sometimes need to realise that the relationship isn't going to work and you need to be willing to set your partner free so that they can find happiness.
Love is the greatest thing in the world to have - but sometimes also the saddest.

for me, it's simple..true love has a passion to love, respect with each other, trust with one another, care, not only physical attraction but seeing what's within, finding the right person without seeing the perfection but accepting also the imperperfection of that person..

I think the true meaning of love is selfless caring for another person. You have to put that person first before yourself. His/her happiness is your happiness.

Hi Leah_ramirez.
To me,
Love is not "if you love a person, love his/her weakness"
but
"In true love, he/her will never own a weakness"
