I am asking about the love that should be present in a marriage. Has anyone known that they were "truly" in love, or do you just assume its love because you prefer that person above others? What kind of love should you have in a marriage? If you think you are in love with someone but have waivered slightly at what lengths would you go to retain that love and refresh it? Alot of questions yes...I am just very curious of everyones views on such a vast subject matter. Thanks!

This Love is something that makes you to want to be with this person forever, for life. They, the lover, are someone you KNOW you can build a future with and grow old with. They are someone you want to share every step in life with from here on, have memories with. They are someone you KNOW you were born to be with and know for the rest of your life. It is someone you feel is that piece of your self you have been missing. It’s more powerful than infatuation or a crush and does not fade with time. It is pure, it is strong and it is enduring.
How to keep it alive? By never taking it for granted or neglecting it.

What about my question leads you to assume I meant no love at all? I'm asking peoples opinions on the various types of love...and if they feel there is "true" love and what it means to them. Thanks for response though! I agree if your not in love you shouldnt get married, but again not my question.
