Depends on what you mean by 'love'.

Justmeraeagain · 56-60, F
It depends on the definition of love if it's butterflies and feeling romantic all the time then no that's not going to last, but if you decide to love someone till death do you part, work at it, forgive each other, learn to live with little quirks or faults, and work as a team,then I do believe that kind of love will make it.

Love gets your foot in the door, but by no means guarantees a relationship will last. Love is a "what have you done for me lately" scenario. If you sit back on your laurels and bank on the love that got you together being enough to last a lifetime...You are going to be disappointed. People and relationships evolve. We become more competent and more experienced as we progress through life and priorities change. Money becomes important, as does future plans, vacations, kids...and you have to do more because there is so much more to do plus be there for your partner and make them feel wanted and "F'able" . Sex is important, and couples that keep doing it and enjoy each other last.

No. It takes a lot more. Good communication, ability to compromise, understanding of one another's needs and the ability to meet them, good teamwork, conflict resolution skills, the list could go on of what things contribute to a healthy successful relationship. Love is important though because it is what motivates you to learn how to do all that other stuff.

A relationship IS a partnership as well as many aspects of love.

I'll repeat this again. Even the Greeks have nine aspects of love. And there's far more than those nine aspects to love.
AbbeyRhode · F
Yes, because if two people truly love one another, the rest comes naturally.
Honesty, openness, caring and affection are part of love.

Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres. Love never fails.

@AbbeyRhode You are right. It is if they love each other. What happens when one of them does not?
AbbeyRhode · F
@degraded That's when it is sad. Love is meant for two.
degraded · 22-25, F
@AbbeyRhode it's very sad
dancingtongue · 80-89, M
The warm, fuzzy, infatuation type love? Nope. Not if you mean a committed, life-long, living together relationship. Those relationships are built on mutual respect, complementary strengths & weaknesses, full partnerships where you share far more than the goosebumps and intimate moments.

@dancingtongue
OH STOP!!!
You're making me have intimate thoughts about you now! 🥵
dancingtongue · 80-89, M
@swirlie Unfortunately that will be all you get these days. The hormone therapy for prostate cancer has wiped out all other possibilities. 🥺

Hey, some of us are okay with what you're offering!
meggie · F
If you truly loved someone, you'd treat them nicely. So if it were true love on both sides, it would be enough.
ToLivePeacefully · 31-35, M
I think as long as it's mutual, Yes.
At least I would assume so.
No. You can love someone but that doesn't guarantee that you can make it work.
thrash · 31-35, M
love is like fuel. except today is 3025. love is enough to make things work but it's just no longer available.
@thrash Wow, we jumped 1,000 years within the blink of an eye.
No, it isn't. One of life's hard lessons.

Not if it is one sided. Relationships have to be mutual, agreeable, and beneficial or at least wanted by both parties to survive otherwise they become toxic
Pretzel · 70-79, M
nope
love can fade
you need common interests and a dedication to staying together
LordShadowfire · 46-50, M
Yes, but not in the way most people think about it. Love is not just a noun, it's a verb. And it's one you have to do every single day.
Fertilization · 36-40, F
Not really. This kind of relationship is scary.
Living proof it is not
ElRengo · 70-79, M
No, it´s not, but it´s the most important factor to make it worth of lasting.
Prettybratbi1tch · 26-30, F
Unblock me and I might tell you
tobynshorty · 51-55, F
@Prettybratbi1tch I hear the robot has you blocked also😝
Prettybratbi1tch · 26-30, F
@tobynshorty he keeps ignoring me and idk why
Penny · 46-50, F
yes. relationships end when the love is gone
@Penny Well .. if it was ever really there in the first place ..
No. Takes work too
Zonuss · 46-50, M

No, love must have sex at the forefront or else the relationship is toast.
