Falling in Love

Have you experienced falling in love? Can someone really fall out of it?

What is true love? I have asked myself that question several times. La Rochefoucauld quotes, “It is with true love as it is with ghosts; everyone talks about it, but few have seen it.” I do not believe in love at first sight, because I know that it takes time to finally realize that you are already falling in love with the person.

I have had some relationships with other men before I met Sean ( Sean is my fourth boyfriend). I am proud to say that I have learned to love before. Sean knows the names; he knows the stories behind these men. He even asked me if I love still love them, I honestly told him yes, I told him I will love them for the rest of my life - for I have loved them with all of my heart.

Love as to life, has different facets. I will forever love them but on a different level. True love never ceases. Each story may not have ended the way I wanted it to end, but I know that what happened was even better. We all have different lives now, each has moved on and that is more important.

I will always love and admire them. There will still be a day that I will think of them and their family and hope that they are happy. I will still pray for them, and hope that our paths can cross once again.

For all of my tears, disappointment, pain, and happiness, I thank them and I thank God for allowing me both the chance and the ability to love with such intensity and sincerity. I don’t know what the future holds, but I am forever better because of what they have taught me.

I have found the love of my life. I am happy now. We have declared the love that we have for each other when we got married - to love each other more and more everyday and to fulfill and seek the plan that God has prepared for us.

Do not be afraid to fall in love. Love is still the most wonderful gift a person can give and receive in this lifetime.

It is better to love and lost, than to have never loved at all.
