What exactly counts as true love?
I think the two words of true love, the emphasis is on the truth, not on love. Because "love is easy to get, it's really hard to find.".
Love is easy to produce. When you meet someone who impresses you, the love hormone secreted by the brain will drive you to yearn, which will produce love. In the eyes of many people, love is to meet people who need it, and that's it. Young love is innocent love, prime-age love is vigorous love, middle-aged love is love bound to reality. Love at every stage of life is born by meeting the right person at the right time.
However, not all love can be said to be true love. Psychology's famous love triangle holds that true love consists of passion, intimacy, and commitment, of which intimacy is an important part of true love. Two people who are intimately related have developed a sense of familiarity, peace of mind, comfort, and trust from getting along day and night for a long time, and this feeling has no time precipitation. Years are indelible.
Therefore, we see many old couples who have been married for decades, although they have no enthusiasm, they still love each other. That is the love of a lifetime, the love that cannot be separated, this is true love. And some meet short loves. For the sake of the other person can give up all love. It's passion, it's desire. Without getting along day and night, there is no real mutual understanding, the object of your love has no real understanding, where did you come from? If a relationship lacks an element of intimacy, even if the feeling of love becomes stronger, it is chemistry, not true love. You have to understand that true love has nothing to do with possession, nothing to do with devotion, nothing to do with desire, nothing to do with inhibition, nothing to do with stimulation, nothing to do with warmth.
