xendra: Gbam! so we can conveniently say there is always a reason attached to that facade called love and as long as that reason is still there they remain together. Nevertheless if the reason vanishes and you still see some together, its either they are no longer at a vantage position to leave each other for one reason or the other. 4 Likes |

Toks2008: Tok love is provisional and conditional in nature even God's love. practically God want us to worship and follow him and who doesn't do these won't enjoy his eternal blessings. now that's a condition but not in all cases some enjoy grace.however it doesn't mean it is not love because there are conditions to it. frankly, love is overly used to make someone believe or do something for you. example men use love to get sex while girls use it to get money and favour, same as son and daughters to their parents. in a nutshell, it is what we use to get something irrespective of what we really feel. it is a powerful word. in terms of feelings we define it according to what we see and fancy at the time of expression. 5 Likes 1 Share |

@OP, Thanks a lot for this beautiful piece, "personally" I think this is your best so far, and why do I say so?, Well because it brings to light what most people are oblivious of, because I say the same thing always but most people don't seem to get me, there's no such thing as true ,unconditional love between a man and a woman. People only love you as long as it's convenient for them. The love from a mother to his/her child is understandable and also the pure love of God. A guy was once after me for good two and a half years, my friend called it love, but I called it self-centeredness, they said I was mean, but they just couldn't see through my mind's eye. Everything single thing he did reeked of selfishness, he was after me for himself, for his own happiness, not mine because i told him severally, I wasn't intetested but it felt as though I was talking to a wall . They claimed he loved me but I knew that wasn't true he loved himself not me. Nobody loves you, even regular people only get close to you because they feel you have something that could be useful to them, so at the end of the day it's not about you but their own personal interest. 11 Likes |

falconey: Why we say Gods love is unconditional is because of his loving grace. If my wife commits adultery I could forgive her for the first time but if she dies it again there is no way I can be with her again even if she is forgiven But with God he is so loving that he will keep forgiving you even if you keep fooling yourself by sinning against him again and again....that is the unconditionality of Gods love. 4 Likes |

Recherche: That's all. I tell people, marry for any reason that suits you..sex, money, power, fame..whatever and stop talking about love The only one I witnessed which was close to real love was from a lady I met few years back and she kept saying she just loves me but she does not know why just for her to tell me one day that she loves me because I'm so cute and I was like..lobatan! So if I was not cute there is no way she will look my way. Any lady that wants wahala with me should use those crazy scam phrase "I love you" ...tell me you like me want me desire me but don't use those words. 2 Likes |

Toks2008: LWKM he will keep forgiving if you keep fooling yourself again and again. yeah that's the grace I mentioned earlier but not everyone one enjoys that. |

I am a firm believer in laws of attraction. You attract what you project. If you think true love doesn't exist, then you will not have one or see one. I CHOOSE to believe still in the good in humanity no matter how grim and devious people, world gets. Thats my philosopy; i will say its working pretty well for me. 3 Likes |

i see the title is changed. Tru dat. Only dummies who were or are hurt by love will say there is no true love. Suits you well..... Ahhh let me finish my rowing workout. |
Re: Do you Believe In Love? by Nobody: 6:38pm On Sep 03, 2016 |
Toks2008: Exactly, I asked the fellow too, because I couldn't decipher the reason why he refused to leave me be, only for him to say, "you are so beautiful you need to see the colour of your skin, you are so classy and whatnot" and besides they are other reasons he gave which i won't be mentioning but were utterly selfish. 2 Likes |

ellacute45: I know the psyche of lalasticlala and nairaland mods in general. That fool word won't go down well but dummies sound mild...though if I have my way I would have left it as it was but may likely not get to the fpage.lol! |

Recherche: Well since you now know that there is no real love perse so let him into your life rather than continue to wait for one liar that will come and tell you bull crap. People say I'm too picky and I agree cos for me the things I want in my lady counts. I'm the type of guy that can be with one lady till I die provided she maintains a status quo and there are some qualities my lady must have physically before I go for her and its left for her to want me or not. 4 Likes |

love connotes having a deep affection for a person or a thing....and perfection is not underlined here. which means it can fade with time due to circumstances bothering on human imperfection. but that doesn't mean that true love doesn't exist. however, the only true love that never fades is called "agape" ....it's the only kind of love you can term as "unconditional".. |
