It's easy to give your heart away, the problem is finding the right person to give it to, that's the trouble.

You know it's right when you can't stop thinking about them? No. That's about equal to getting the Wii and can't stop thinking about wanting to play it. Try this, after you do stop thinking about them, try and remember if you still felt grounded to them durring that time.

You know it's right when you would to die for them? No. I doubt that they'll be the only person you'd die for, unless you're a bad child, parent, and friend. How about, when you'd try your best to save them, or die with them trying, and not put them through the pain of losing you, dying for them is romantic notions that down deep is selfish.

The one you love doesn't have to give you fuzzy butterflies in your stomach all the time. They have to be a true and steady contant.

The one you love shouldn't be your girl or boy friend that becomes a spouse, they should be your very best friend.

You don't have to be the same, you don't have to be opposite, you just have to be two people who connect.

Even if looks don't matter to you, attraction is necesary, it comes from charisma and personality as well.

Be careful of lust, don't let it blind you or fool you. Lust and untrue love (yes it exists) can lead to very deep relationships, but the deeper those are, the deeper the wound it leaves when it fails.

The lines between true love and untrue love is very hard to find. On the outside, they seem the same. You'd do anything for each other, can't stand being apart. You want to be with them forever. You can see a future with them. You feel like you found the one. When you find the exact way to tell them apart, let me know, I'm still working on it. In my opinion, God's the only difference, but you may not like that answer, so that part, you'll have to find on your own. From what I've head, 1 in 2 marriages fail, and from what I heard 92% of couples who pray together stay together, there's something to that, one way or another.
