I Am In Love

I've actually never been in love. Don't really think it exists especially in today's society. I think people confuse love with lust. Today people date for a month and suddenly they're in love. Few months later they're with someone else and they love that person. I don't want something temporary. I want that unconditional kind of love no matter what the circumstances are. Very rare though today. I think I have a better chance meeting the pope or winning the lottery than finding someone genuine who loves me unconditionally.

It's a shame that you are so disillusioned with finding real love and I totally agree that many confuse it with lust. The Hollywood 'romance' is equally a fantasy and so many think that if they don't get the same experience as they see in romantic movies then they have not found love. I hope you will find someone who you can truly cherish and respect and who will be able to do the same for you. He will be your friend as well as lover and you will overcome hardships as well as enjoy good times. The relationship that survives all is the one where real love is to be found. I agree with jewelson29's wish in his last sentence for you (and him indeed).
