Would you rather find your true love at 16 and be with them for the rest of your lives, or would you rather...

find it at 24 and have time to date around until then (to gain experience)?

It's not about age for me. If a love didn't last it will be out of reasons. Btw, what is true love?

@SapphicHeart Idk, I never had a long lasting relationship.
@PurpleHearts
Isn't any love true at the time? We feel love towards someone, and I don't think we share our love any differently at any point as long as we're part of a lasting relationship. I don't necessarily see a link between long lasting relationship and true love, and I don't believe in one love meant to be.

@SapphicHeart doesn't "long lasting" build trust and a strong friendship, things that just don't happen within 3 months? You know, like taking a bullet or giving them a kidney, things that I don't think you'd be ready to do for anyone, no matter how much you'd love them, if you've known them only for 3 months or so.
@PurpleHearts
Long lasting might hold all of that, but is that all what characterises love, and what is needed for us to feel ourselves loved as in a partnership? Your description might as well fit to a long term friendship.

@SapphicHeart Idk what love really means, I just suspect it being that, like a strong frienship between 2 people, that is also romantic. At least that's what I hope it to be 😁 I want them to be my best friend as well.
@PurpleHearts
Hopefully they will become that. Meanwhile, no rush to find it. It will grow within a relationship where you both keeps feeling comfortable around each other, and no need to stay in one that doesn't offer such, just be aware that it takes time to build a unity as we all come from different paths and directions in life and will have to adjust to fit into a long lasting relationship.

@SapphicHeart Yes, I agree, and thank you, I hope it will happen for me soon and for everyone on SW that seeks that.
@PurpleHearts
Only time will let us know. We might as well enjoy life as we proceed. *-*
