Being truly in love...means that you love the person even in their most vulnerable moments. You love that person despite their flaws, in fact, you cherish their flaws.
Everyone has flaws, that is just part of being human. No one is perfect. There are parts of other people that you dislike, no matter the intensity of the negative feeling. It is just whether you can tolerate these flaws, that decides what role they will play in your life.
Without the bad... there is no good. It's all about balance. They put each other into prospective.
I seem to get ideas, but when I sit down and try to explain them...I find it hard to put it into words.
Best example I can think of...
A flaw that your girl has, is that she is a little insecure about her looks. This irritates you somewhat that the issue keeps coming up; you think she is insane to have such thoughts because she is beautiful beyond belief. Although you can't understand why is so self-conscience about it...you continue to reassure her that she is wrong, and you tell her how gorgeous she looks. She appreciates the compliment...she loves you, for making her feel better.
You love her. You love the way she looks. She is yours forever. And although it irritates you slightly that she has this flaw, that she keeps asking...you love to make her happy.
You learn to love her flaw. You want to see her happy. You accept her flaw, because you know that you can help her fix it...you can help her get over it, as temporary as it may be. For that time period...you know that you made her happy, and that undoubtedly makes you happy.
I will say...that the Notebook is one of my favorite movies. It shows the devout true love of a couple.
She has all but forgot what they had... she doesn't even know who Noah is. Think about the pain this must bring Noah, that his true love doesn't even know who he is. But he is willing to retell the tale over and over again, to go through that trouble...so even for a few minutes, they could have back what they had. He does it so they can have each other back. He just loses her over and over again. But it is worth it in the end.
Life is Bitter Sweet.
