The paradox of true love

Some people say that it needs two to feel the same for each other before true love could happen. I have a friend who is pretty stable and kind of happy with her married life and one day whilst we were in a cafe bar she told me that her husband is not her 'true love'. Shocked...No!!!
My point is that one would know if it is ‘true love'. I think ‘true love’ is more than just being together and romantic. It’s more than chemistry and butterflies in your stomach when you are with  this person. It’s even more than comforts and stability of having children and a home.
What is true love then? I believe that true love is feeling and crying secretly for someone out there. There is pain in your chest because this person has never left your heart, your insides. And if you were lucky to be with this person, you knew that you would be determined to be with him (r) not for any life’s conventions and compelling sacrifices. It is because you felt that (s) he has your heart and you knew in your gut that you would never stop saying...I love you till the end!!!
True love can only be real when it is 'too good to be true'. It's true essence is paradoxical - that is what I believe in. Maybe you think and feel differently from me and I respect that. You have your own true love’s paradox...you are entitled to keep it that way for as long as you are happy. Until next time...be well.
