My Definition of "Love..."

First and Foremost, thank you to everyone who read my last post. It was great to have such good feedback from so many of you! I am especially excited for this next post because I finally get to talk about what we all strive to have as humans everyday...love. I finally get to hit the topic of relationships.

So what is it? Well I believe everyone has their own special defininition of love. If I tried to define that for everyone, then we would be here for a while. So here is my definition of love.

I would just like to first start out by saying that some girls get soooo terribly sappy about a "heartbreak." I've had my share of heartache, but heartbreak? That's a whole nother' story. I didn't have a broken heart when my boyfriend and I broke up. I had a heartbreak the day I found out I lost someone so very close to me. To have someone be completely be removed from your life, and I mean really gone, now that is heartbreak. Girls, you will have a lot of people come in and out of your life but remember that it means you are one step closer to Mr. Right.

Mr. Right for me is a challenge. He doesn't let me win at everything. He isn't needy, but attentive. He is driven and knows what he wants to do with the rest of his life. He is the person I wouldn't think twice about ever cheating on me. He doesn't mind opening the car door for me, or having a good ole' wrestling match. He wants to be around my family and wants me to be around his. He respects my beliefs and knows I respect his.

Mr. Right lets me have "me" time, time with the girls, and doesn't mind if I have a night out with the "guys" either. We trust eachother because we don't have a reason not too. We don't have to "try" so hard at our relationship...things fall in place because that's how it should be. There is chemistry. He's my best friend. He helps me grow positively and wants me to follow my dreams no matter where that is. Because if love is strong enough, it doesn't matter if you are 3,000 miles away or down the street. Mr. Right is not perfect and that is love...

How do you define love?
