is it true that younger and older people see love differently?

I agree. Younger people always want to feel the feeling of being in love because of their excitement they based it on physical attraction. Once they have found an interesting person that they felt that there is something special about him or her, without any further thinking they will accept it as love. Older people harvest want they know and feelings through their experience! Maturity sometimes can be linked to experience as people push through on things as long as they dont have any bad experience with it.

i am married for six years already. when i was young i had girlfreinds and most of the relations i had lasted really long. it all depends on the personality of that person. some people takes love like clothes and even they matured they still do that. some people start to matured on an early age and some never matured. so i think it all depends on the personality of a person.

There is definitely a difference. i guess back in the days things were a lot different. the whole concept of love has been continuously been evolving. try this experiment: go to a few old ppl and ask them bout their love stories and how things were back then. then ask a few young ppl. i bet ull see a big big difference in terms of perception

hi goldief, In my own opinion, I can say that there are somewhat differences on how younger and older people views love.I say this thing because I had observed it in myself alone.Well, I can say that change is really constant. People change as time goes by. It is because as they grow older, they learn more things. And those things that they learned, add to their horizons.When I was still a teenager, I see love in very narrow way.I think of love as a very instant thing. I was easily mislead by good looks.Once, I admire him a person because he is handsome,then I think of myself in love with that person. When that person not give me what I want, I think of it not a love any longer.Honestly, I can say that I have a very limited understanding about love.But when I grow older, I begin to understand what really love is. It is not based on physical appearance. It is not the one that instantly develops. True love is very patient. It can stand the test of time. It is not selfish. What it always wish is the happiness of the one he or she love.I am in a long distance relationship and we all know that it is a very complicated one. There are times that my boyfriend and I will talk about our relationship. Sometimes, we reflect on every detail of our love. We both believe that our love will work because our love for each other is true. And even how many obstacles we will have to face in the future, we will not leave each other.We maybe separated physically but our heart is very close to each other.

Yep it is a well known fact that the world aroung us is rapidly changig. There is a vast difference the way people used to take love. A quick example is the way people Behave or date each other. Thats called generation gap. In the same way our children will know the meaning of love a whole way different than we did. But its totally untrue that younger people fall in love on impulse. Its just a way of thinking. It depends on the individual how much an individual is serious about the relationship they are in.
