I always give my all whenever I'm in love. This is because I really love the person I'm in love with and being in love to me is giving your all to the person you love without asking for anything in return. I know it would be hard to recover if we get separated but I really want to do everything and anything that I could for our relationship. This is because I don't want to live my life asking what ifs and wondering what would have happened to our relationship should I gave her all of me. Would she still be mine? Would we be happy? I don't want to agonize myself over these questions. I also don't want to have any regrets.
Furthermore, I have this principle that I would do something to things I could do something about and to constantly show those I love how much I love them. We only have one life to live, I want to make the most of it and give those I love the love that I feel for them.

If I were to be asked by that question, I would also give my everything to the person I love. But it doesn't guarantee you that that person will never leave you despite of all the things that you have done. Based on my experience, I was very down and disappointed because the person whom I loved so much cheated on me. Despite of all the things that I had sacrificed for him, he did cheat on me. He didn't appreciate the things that i have done to him.
That made me realized that next time, if I engaged into another relationship, I would not give my all. I would really give half of my love to myself. Because if I do the same as what I have done with my last relationship, I don't think that I can bare the same pain again. Selfish as they say but I'm just saving my heart for the next person who will love me truly and will for our our love until the end.

I don't give my all when i'm in love,, we should leave something for ourselves too.., so that when we get hurt and left by the person we love.., there is something left for us.. and we will not lose our self-respect..=)

No. You give a lot, but--if you give your all--you're nothing but 'another big fan' to the other.
Because everyone is a "servant" of someone or -something. And the one whom you serve gets your "all" (and the one you love gets all you can spare of what your Master shares with you).
((Many say the one whom they serve is 'G*d,' but many are unsure what that means. I would guess it's 'being sure that the Kingdom of G*d and/or -Heaven reigns supreme,' but--judging from people's speed to HELP you if an area in your life isn't 'Kingdom-standard' ideal--you'll see that most people's "serving G*d" entails just 'insuring that they-themselves are blessed like a righteous person ought to be.'))
And no, you don't 'serve' the person you love (not with "your all"); because that level of service requires that THEY provide sustanence for you.

I give my best when I am in love but not as all, it is important to leave something for yourself

Yes jailo12. People that are in love sometimes become stupid. It's like you can do anything just to make your partner happy and contented with you that you don't think first if your decision is right or wrong. I've tried that already. I'm so inlove with my boyfriend that sometimes I became so martyr. I've always want him to be happy. I even resigned from my jobs because of him. He just want me to stay in my house and do nothing. I know it's so stupid but I don't want to have a fight with him. Maybe I'll just realize to do the right thing if I'm mature enough. But for now, I'll just enjoy the times that I'm with him. It's the only thing that makes me happy.

I did. I always have. Even though relationships come to its end, I give it my all because I don't want to end up with regrets knowing that I didn't give it my all. I want to start and end a relationship with the thought that I did my part, if it failed.. its not meant to be. As for your experience, it's hard to love someone who'll eventually use you. But you really deserve better than that. There's no use of hating the girl throughout your lifetime, but at least its a learning experience for you that you should not trust that girl the way you did before.
Best of luck

When I am in a relationship i give everything I can. He means the world to me and I could never imagine not giving everything I can to him. He deserves it.

I am giving my all with the partner that I have at the moment, but it does take me a couple of months (around 4) to start giving it.
I have been hurt by men who have cheated on me many times in the past, but something just makes me know that this guy who I am with at the moment won't be the same.
I can't explain what makes me think like that, but I just look at him and know that he won't cheat on me.

yes i give my all. even if i think the guy is not caring much i always find excuses for their behaviour :( a guy i liked he said he loved other girl and said he loves me he even said he wants change his job bcs loves her so how could he say he loves me? he lived far from me and he said he is poor and cant meet me and said he loves other girl and needs forget her so i guess he was using me saying he loves me. we were not lovers but i already was falling for him. i always give my all :(

I have been in love many times and I say that I always give my all when I love the guy.I would treat him not just a prince but a king.My friends hate me for that because as they always say when I am broken hearted that I dont leave something for myself I always give it all so when I get hurt I really get hurt, they always tell me that the guy is just using me and I dont believe them,it's maybe true but I dont believe it, I guess I'm blinded with the feelings of being in love. Along the way I'm not like others who would hate the ex's, I know that they have reasons why they break up with me, well now, we are still friends and I know that I don't have regrets in my part and guess what, they are the ones who regret why they left me for another,I just laughed at them now, well karma really works..it may not be abrupt but it works...

My mom used to tell me this, "you must love yourself more than you love him". That's because I'm a girl and i need to protect myself. Girls are vulnerable when in love and it is important to spare ourselves at least a little love. Don't give up or give love too much, because you might lose yourself in the process. Don't let this experience stop you from loving again. Good luck ;))

yes, i do give everything. i do not want to think one day that i could have been with that person had i given it all. i hate the what if scenarios in my life. besides, the moment of loving someone is not common and everyday phenomenon. it is rare. so i take it very special. something that can be treasured and kept for life. it is not your loss if your love cheats on you. it is her/his loss. for sure, somebody will celebrate the kind of love you have prepared to give to that special one. best wishes..

Yes, i do give my all & everything to my husband whom I'm still in love with for the past 22 years. When you love that person you can't help to put everything into the relationship because you don't want to regret later if things don't work out, & you think back with all those what ifs. This is my one true love & you have to be able to work for it but both of you have to want it & both work for it, because if only one person is trying to make the relationship work , it will never succeed. If you feel something is wrong talk with her about your feelings because she can't read your thoughts unless of course she can read minds.. We have only one life to live & I want to live it to the fullest by making me & my partner happy. If your partner is doing this to you & your giving her your all, you should not regret it, it's her loss because when she thinks back later she will be missing all that attention you were giving her.. Go out with your friends & let her see that u can still move on even without her. Be patient don't be in a rush, you will find that special person & again, give her your all. Good luck in finding that special person!!
