What should it be like?

[Property Of God]

I was asking my friends how many times have they been in love,
results were entertaining, some said 7 times and some said never.

What should determine that a relationship really was true love or just a crush, or maybe even a big mistake?

How many times are we actually able to be in love? does it have specific characteristics to be love?

And one very true fact was, that when we begin to like someone, we keep convincing ourselves that this person is 'The one" and once it doesn't work out, we keep convincing ourselves that this same person, isn't 'The one". Is there "The one"??

I really wish everyone could reply to this, I want all opinions

GOD bless.

this is a good one...Nermeen!

hm... well personally I don't know how many times i've fallen for someone, a crush specially because its outnumbered..

through many experiences of those kind, now, when I think that someone is the "One" then I tell myself, no its not the one... because I've always end up making wrong choices.
So I talk to God and say : " you will show me the "One" in a better scenario but now I need to focus on you and not get distracted"
and do my best to let that "crush" feeling go and Trust Him...

I think True Love for someone doesn't involve lust ( my opinion)

Sometimes, yes I think we all do get a little impatient but God knows the best timing to reveal the right person for us because He knows more about each of us than we do ourselves.

But b4 I meet the right person ~ I have a long way to go, learning more about my Saviour..



God Bless you

I guess the only way we know if someone is 'The One' is to pray and ask. God will make it obvious if they are i am sure of it.
But we must not get to destracted by finding this 'One' for it is in Gods plans not ours.
In the meantime we must focus all our love to our beautiful Lord.

A great post thought... really made me think

I think some people say they have been in love a lot...when it is just a crush or something like it. For me, I have only been in love TRULY twice, once is JESUS and the other is my husband (I have found that I grow more and more in love with Jesus and my husband as the years pass. Also, I love Jesus FIRST and THEN my husband! Just to clarify! hehe).

Some people think you have to 'settle' for someone because you haven't found 'The One'. Well, no. Some people DO 'settle' because they are impatient and want the find 'The One' NOW! Forget about God's Timing...they want everything NOW!


I think to know if it is TRUE LOVE...is different for different people. Especially different for men and women. I have learned that TRUE LOVE is something that CAN happen and it isn't just in fairy tales, etc. If you are focused on finding 'The One', I wouldn't be surprised if you miss them! Focus on God and you'll be surprised what happens.

I was in a bad, unhealthy relationship before I met my husband online. I wasn't looking at that point, but we talked and had some laughs. We got to know each other and are STILL doing that.

Let GOD'S timing reign in your life, not yours. Your 'The One' will find you when you least expect.

I think there is only one 'The One' though I do know of widows and widowers finding love again. I think that is special, too, but rare.

I don't take love as a whim. It isn't an emotion. Love is a choice and an action word...a verb! We can't MAKE people love us. We have to be willing to share our heart with people for that to happen.

I believe people fling around the word 'love' too much. I know I say 'I love ice cream' lol It just means I like it a lot! I had many a crush in my school years, but I have found the love that I know to be forever...in Jesus and my husband. No one can take that away from me!
