Romance is a necessary element in one's adult life. It provides the needed thrill and excitement that can make everyday living interesting and happy. But does romance equal to love? If you feel that you love your Man or Women, should that be enough? Are your emotions enough to guide you through all your romantic decisions?
Sometimes, our false notions of the feelings of love and romance hinder us from really connecting with another person and building up a real, lasting relationship. So let's take a look at one of the biggest falee notions about romance and love, that plagues singles today:
False Romantic Notion: "Love is only a feeling."
Well, sure, this is somewhat true since love is, after all, first and foremost, an emotion. A feeling. But true love goes beyond that.
Of course, at the start, when you meet someone that you connect with, you would feel love for that person. You feel it through the way your connect with each other while communicating. You can feel if you have chemistry with each other through your online communication via e-mails and chat. This connection and chemistry builds up the feeling of love for a person. So much so that love may sometimes be confused with passion or just a strong physical attraction. Initial attraction, plus a good connection and lots of chemistry can and will develop to a feeling of love.
However, it is also important to know that true love is more than just a feeling. You may ask, "If love is not just a feeling, then what is it?"
True love is a decision. It is a decision to prolong your connection with your partner. It is a decision to stay with the person that you feel connected to when the time comes that life becomes difficult and may overwhelm you both. It is a decision to stay with the other person through good times and bad, to still stay committed. It is a decision to work together on your chemistry to make your feelings grow stronger and to make your feelings for the other person mature. It is a decision to give each other support and affection even when you and your partner turn old and gray.
Don't misunderstand though. The feeling of love doesn't have to vanish in a long-term relationship. However, this giddy and good feeling may sometimes be drowned up by the unavoidable noise that real life has. What's more vital is for you to still feel strongly for the other person, to care for their welfare, even after the passion of newfound love and passion sizzles out.
