I am struggling with relationships and love right now. It is not because I am alone. I watch movies and see idealistic couples in love. I have also witnessed couples in real life. What is love? How can one define such an esoteric idea. What is real love and where does it exist? When does infatuation end and love take over? I have loved several women. I was married for eight years even though we were together only seven of them. I think I can say I have been love three times.
How do we fall in and out of love? Do other animals experience love? Love dates back many years in literature. Shakespeare and other famous authors write about it. Romeo and Juliet are classic examples of love found and lost. Life, is it worth living if the one you love is gone? My Dad is suffering because the loss of his wife of 45 years. He talks of dating someone but I don't know if he will take that step.
It is funny how different my Dad and I are. I don't think he dated any other women as an adult besides my mother. I dated about five women before marriage and one after my divorce. Where am I going? I don't know. I have loved and lost. They say it is better to love and lost than not to love at all.
Somedays, I actually believe it.
peace
