Does love really conquer all?

My husband and I have stuck it out through weird extended family wars on his side and now on my side. We're a team and the rest of the world can go do their thing some where else.

There will always be opposition to any relationship. Everyone thinks they know the most perfect match for you, even if you have no interest in them. I have a friend where he's in love with this girl that is a horrible person to his friends and his family, and is so opinionated that she is like a monster among women. But he loves her, and she loves him, so they are in their own world, while all of us wonder how such a nice guy ended up with one like that.

That would be a difficult question to answer since it is hard to actually imagine how affected you would be. It would not be so wonderful if you were poor and had toothache.

I don't think I'd like this kind of love. When everyone else hates them. Not good at all.

Absolutely not. Love like that is for the birds.

I don't know, really. I think we all have this misguided impression that love is all you need to conquer all. But really, love is only part of the story. It depends on so many different things like how strong you are as a couple, trust, respect etc One party may start to feel resentful, especially the one who's had to give up all those people. -and when this happens, it can inevitably have a horrible knock on effect on the relationship, possibly leading to a split. So, love doesn't always conquer all. That's just a romantic, and overly simplistic way of looking at it. After all, the path to true love is not always a smooth one.

Hmmm, doesn't sound good.. Unless the family is waay bigoted! I don't think love conquers all. Not yet. But it will! :)

I am of the opinion that when a woman marries a man, she marries him with his emotional baggage, so does the man marry woman with her emotional baggage. In so far as the marriage is concerned ..the physical aspect of it, nobody can dictate that you like this person. That is god's decision. As to woman weaving her way into the family, it is her responsibility to find foothold, take collective family responsibilities, and vice versa, the family too needs to accept her as a responsibility. Even a person selected by the family can prove to be unsuitable after some time. At least, here, there is some bonding because of which some compromises are likely.

The type of love that conquers all is the kind of love God expressed when He gave His only begotten Son. The type of love you're talking about is between a man and a woman who have chosen each other above all others. If you get into that relationship knowing that others will reject you for it and you still have each other and you stay together, then your love conquered all. Yes. For some people they must do just that. CHOOSE! It's their life to live.

Yes, I believe love conquers all because it is looking past all the bad parts to stay with the good of the person without pity. You can't love a person if you only stay for the positive and not for the negative and it's the same way if you only stay for the negative and not the positive. Pity is being sorry for who the person is and other's viewpoint is on the person and the complete opposite of compassion and love, which is seeing the positive in someone and being sorry for what happened to them and not who they are. The thing about family and friends breaking off contact. Well, it's true that I shouldn't delve into pointless arguments when the logical solution is to not waste words on people who deserve my silence BUT.... if the feeling of something missing reminds me of why my example lived in the first place then I would gladly be happy with how long distance reminds me of what was important in the first place. It is what made me a person and it's actually someone worth missing. Someone worth missing is the people that still fill in the gaps of what shouldn't be missing and if that's true than I'm happy that I'm thinking about what is really fair. Alone, I merely exist. Existing isn't the same as living. Existing is survival and survival is how to escape. Together, I live because of the lessons given by other people that were shared in my example, that still live on today. Love is life and living is love. Love is an adventure with plot twists of dark depths or light ridden joys and all always live it because even hate is connected to what should of been loved as fair in the first place. I can't escape or survive love because I live it. ^_^

Love really conquers all.

Love has the power to conquer all it all depends how strong that persons heart is to drop their family and pursue love cause in the end family is all we have

It conquers if both know what love is. Like what my man is saying a while ago, I must fight for my right.

Love is between only two persons and don't mind other people as they have nothing to do with it. Eventually they will learn and realize everything.

I do not think that love could conquer all or everything. Each one of us has different priorities in life and love is not the sole priority. One just cannot survive on the basis of love only. If two persons are in a relationship with each other, they need money, housing and clothing apart from love. If they do not have money, they just cannot move ahead in life.

So far I have seen money conquers all. Money makes people happy. Money makes relationship work. It is all about money if you ask me.

Well like a wise man once said- " You don't marry the girl, you marry the family! " Of course its hard to appease everyone with a relationship your having with someone, but you have a better understanding of the people around you than that gal/guy whom you just got into love with. If you think people around you are hypercritical of stuff, you should probably not worry so much. Also your bf/gf/husband/wife is your primary source of happiness and satisfaction in life so your first concern should be how he/she is to you and later to others. Plus if your family and the guy/gal you're with really loves you, they should be able to strike a compromise with each other for your sake.

yes I would, in the end if my family loves me, they will soon accept what I did. It always happen at the end. They have to accept you and your partner whether they like it or not, because you're family.

Hey Friends Love is a Magic Circle. When we are in we forget about every thing and only bother about the latter love. But when we are out the circle we misses everything . Don't Worry be Happy.

Love can conquer it all for love is the most powerful. Don't doubt love for love is from God and God is love.
