True Love : Myth or Fact?

(This is dedicated to all those lovers I know who are rocking in their relationships and for those, who are yet to find one...all in all...dedicated to all my close friends and people I know :P)

Okay, the main reason I am writing this blog is because I got the glimpse of this topic while having a regular conversation with one of my friends (female of course, with guys you simply cannot say all this).

Ever had a relationship which started having butterflies all around in the beginning and then ends up with a gloomy outlook after a period? Don't get shocked and stuff on seeing this question because this does happen!! And if you say it doesn't then fuck off, either you are not serious into your relation or you are lying! And don't even act as though this kinda thing doesn't exist!

Just think for a while. In today's practical world, when you fall into a relationship, isn't it true that you develop a sense of giddiness whenever you see your partner in person? You do! There's like this butterfly effect around everywhere (you can only notice these things when you are into a SERIOUS relation) and the world seems so nice! Even the things you hated the most doesn't bother you anymore. But take the scene to say...a year...or two years further. Is it still the same? Just think it over.

First of all, what is this true love? I agree that its a hypothetical conception, with numerous definitions, varying according to the mind of every individual, but on a general basis...I believe that its a situation where after meeting a particular person, you cannot think of anybody else, you listen, act and respond according to her/him (not loosing your own identity simultaneously) and even if things go bad, you cannot feel for any other person in the same manner as before! Isn't it bull-shit??? First of all....Love is love. No such thing as "True" Love. Then what is "False" Love? But jokes apart, does these things really exist?

I feel that humans have an inherent nature, which either they have in them from birth or they inculcate within them as per situations. This nature is called a habit! You tend to generate habits, which may either be bad or good! Simple! Imagine having opened a new account in a social networking site. You are very excited about it! You meet this one person, with the same mentality, and you guys spend endless hours chatting on the net. This continues for days in days out. At first you enjoy it very much. Then, after a particular period of time what happens? Everytime you sit in front of the computer, you check whether, he/she is online or not! Same is the thing on the other end. What will yo call this phenomenon in its most practical definition? Feelings for a chat friend? We all know how close chat friends can become (with certain exceptions in my case), right? Take another example. Say for example you have a very close friend, with whom you can share instances of all limits. You do this almost regularly. Suppose, for some reasons, that person is unable to receive the call or reply to your sms. Don't you think you will feel anxious as to why she/he is not answering you? At least to know the reason? Okay, now this may seem as to your love for your friend and or the about the enjoyment involved in that conversation, but still.....would you still call it something else, other that a good habit, that you enjoy? Just think!

The main thing I am trying to relay here is that there's no vivid conception as to a true love. You can love somebody, a friend or any other person but how would you classify it as true? I am not against relations or feelings, but the mere thing is that don't cross the board while you are into it. Be yourself and don't mingle your existing relation or a forthcoming relation in search of this true love! There can be trust, there can be affection and care, but do we ever cross our limits so much that we end up in a mud-pile, while trying to perform the duty of true love? If you ever feel doing something out of the box for anyone, its your own affection and nature for that person. You maybe in love, not in true love! C'on people, get real!

Well..so much so...this is my conception. If anyone thinks contradictory to all this, your are free to post comments. Do let me know! I maybe wrong, I maybe right....but still, I feel I am 80% right! :D :P :D

  1. Well True love according to me is a misnomer....all of us who are in love or are eager to find "true love" have different perceptions.... according to our individuality,personality.....So it's a relative term.. when we are in love we think dat we have got our true love and dis mere perception makes us happy... So although it's a myth as far as scientific concern, if the lovers find respite in believing it to be a fact .. what's da harm?... at least dey feel self complacent of being in true love....!!! so let dem njoy it... :P btw well written somik..!!!

  2. na.....its not abt any harm in thinking as such...its simply dat I've seen some people go awry after things go bad....and man...they get really affected...I too had a brk up for my own sake, but I treated it practically and things fell into place pretty soon. I just wished that they could do the same...at least they wouldn't get affected for so long/....thts all re....but hey, thnx! :)
