Choosing to love?

Love never demands . It doesn't see flaws . It doesn't look for physical features. It sees the wholeness of a person. Love doesn't chooses. It has its own bases , It has its own rules. We can never teach love , it have its own world. In love , flaws makes a girl more beautiful. Love needs no requirements. It can 't be taught nor can be forced. It comes so naturally in its own time.

It is hard to set a standard in finding love. Although we could have some aspirations, it is almost impossible to meet all these in one person. Besides, we do not love a person just because of what we have in mind or what we found in a person. Love just happens!

I dont think any of those you mention are love , love is pure and it densest ask why , who and how . I admit that love can grow after looking for certain things such as riches and beauty , we can then love the person more than just for what they own and beauty . I agree with you , love need no requirement , it is the purest emotion in the world .

That is not a true love criteria but rather this is what I like my boyfriend/girlfriend to be criteria. When mr cupido hits you, you'll never look at her outer look but rather be satisfied that she/he is around and is making you happy. When I was young I have a model image of boyfriend to be in my mind. But nothing likes it came... not even close. hahaha. But at least I love the person I'm married with right now, and I am very satisfied with him.

That's right. Love needs no requirement at all but the feelings you have for the person you love.

I agree. When you fall in love, everything will be wonderful.

I agree. Love is not something that can be found by creating a checklist of things that you like in a person. You might meet someone that fits all those looks, yet never end up feeling anything for them. Love is a naturally occurring phenomenon that often comes along when you are least expecting it.

There is nothing wrong with a checklist in your mind. Since this also means that you are aware of your likes or dislikes, yourself very well. And why starting a relationship if sooner or later you know you will find that person annoying, boring, way too lazy, different, you can't have a good chat whith him/her if you already knew that in the first place? And yes fact is that in many cases if it comes to it (esp. this happens to women) you get that partner that is way different as you wished/hoped for but you are still trying to make the best out of it. After all love can grow if you do live together and both are willing to work for it/the relationship. A relationship will only get stronger if you survive the bad times together. It's easy to be together if you have only good/great times.
