How far would you go for someone you love?

Hey Guyz! In my observation and based on my personal experience, I have observed that most people people, especially women, do so much sacrifices for the sake of keeping their relationship with their partners to the extent of losing their own selves. Many of us would just continuously love our partners despite the fact of not getting the same amount of love that we give. Oftentimes, we forget to give more attention to our own and personal interests and happiness for someone we really love. Can we still call it love? How about you? How far would you go for your love? Are you willing to sacrifice your own happiness for the one you love? ^_^

hello starlight! yes, i would do anything for my love. i am willing to sacrifice even my own happiness just to make him happy. I don't expect that my kind of love will be returned back to me in the same degree, however, all i need is that it is acknowledge and i am respected, at all times. This means, that even if he can't make same sacrifices that i do to keep us together, i don't want him taking it for granted either. And if i will learn that my love is just using me or banking on my love to his own great advantage or is betraying me, i am also willing to sacrifice some discomforts to make his life miserable. I had been to the situation where i had loved and been betrayed and although i know that people are different, i don't want to be treated that way again. and so, i tell my love what i can give and what i can't in the name of love. i can love and sacrifice in the name of love, but i will never barter my self-respect for unrequited love with no respect for me and my feelings. let's just say, i am a passionate lover and a passionate hater too.

Hello again starlight! just wanted to thank you for marking my response as best. I don't know what made you choose my response overt that of others, my enigmatic eyes perhaps?lol, my straight and sincere answer most probably. Anyway, thanks again and hope to see you around.

For me it's not how far i love a person but how much i love a person. For me i can say that i will do everything just for the one i love and that how i show my love to someone and i will always protect her anytime anywhere.

I guess I am the martyr type since when I love, I love with my all. I give all that I can give. Although from a hard lesson that I have learn it is still wiser to leave a healthy self love as part of self preservation and a cushion against disappointments we might feel as the one loving. I also am like you in the area of sacrificing for the sake of love ones. I guess it is the difference between how we handle relationships as a woman as oppose to being a man.

when I'm in love I could do anything for the other person. I don't care about money, I don't care about anything...as long as the other person it's happy. I could forgive pretty much everything except cheating..I hate that idea. the thing is that you hardly find someone who deserves making sacrifices for him/her. most of them only follow their interest, and when they get bored, they leave you

Loving a person also has limitations.I have also learned many things and my lessons from loving too much.I have learned that we must set limitations in ourself and we must not forget to respect ourself.We must not love the person more than we could give so in return it does not hurt very badly if in time the relationship will fail or we ended up seperating from each other.

I have loved and lost love. Just last week, my boyfriend broke up with me. After all the sacrifices i made, he just took it for granted. Girls love differently from boys. I did all my best to repair our relationship. So i planned to surprise him. Still, he said it was time to let go. So i did. because i love him so much even though im sad, jusy as long as he is happy...stupid love eh?

It depends on what or how far it was. There's nothing within reason that I wouldn't do for a loved one, I would happily give my life to see my wife live or even one of children. The dangerous thing about this is that someone people will know what to take you for and with the growing trend of being with someone for the wrong reason it really has to come down to common sense. Still within my direct family, I am there and if someone needed my help I would be there. Loves a very strong connection and being able to be there means a lot in life.

When i love someone, i would probably do anything for them. There is so much emotion and power in love. It makes you do things you want and things you don;t want. i can see myself going to the ends of the earth for the ones i love. they mean that much to me.

yes i am willing to sacrifice. i gave up a lot for him. i went to travel with him and resigned from my two jobs. also, people said i am crazy because i prefer to be with him than another guy who has a very promising status in life who would like to marry me. i can cross rivers again with my bf and no one can ever do that with me.
