focus on your work and think romantic relationship is not realky a need but more kf a want.

Define Love for me.. your definition, your idea, what you need in order to call it love

Respect is a Key part of love

[jeffiner]

Yes, it is ☺️. But how do you define Love? Is there a feeling that you're supposed to get when with them? What about without them? Are there expectations that need to be met? Is there an amount of things in common that have to be there? Is there a certain type of history you depend on in order for love to be there? Is there a specific type of trust that needs to be felt?
When you say love, how do you define it?
I'm not being pushy, I'm just listing examples 💯💜

Good examples

Yes trust is important

[jeffiner]

My point sweetie is that until you can define what love is to you, how do you know what you're not finding?
If you're just going out and hoping that you aimlessly run into Love, then that's your obstacle.. -you.
You have to know what you're bringing to the table in order to figure out what you think you want from your partner. Otherwise, how do you know where to start?
What do you you feel are the most important qualities of yourself? What about the best qualities of yourself? And what are your least liked qualities of yourself?
Then you need to figure out what you think would be the best counterpart to those qualities and go from there. (This give you a starting place, ie; start looking at bars, bookstores, campus grounds ( for teachers!) Unless you're a student lolol.. political rallys etc. Wherever it is that the person you think you need would be.. make sense?)
As for the least favorite qualities of yourself, you want to find someone who will compliment those qualities with her own and who will help you grow yourself in those department (s) so long as you are actively mindful and make yourself grow.
We all rush into Love as though it's something that just comes naturally but it doesn't.
Our children get our unconditional love, THAT comes naturally. Romantic Love? That's work and the BEST way to be prepared for that kind of work is to know those things about yourself first. When you can answer questions about yourself, that you'll want your partner to answer about their self, then you're ready. ..
Enjoy getting to know you first, you're more likely to have a successful and meaningful relationship when you know what you're searching for. Which means a lot less hurting.
