Some people kept complaining about their inability to find true love. And most times, the problem is not that they've not met amazing people. The problem usually isn't that they haven't found love that could be true. The problem usually is that they're not looking for true love. They are looking for someone that they can manipulate, control and dominate. They are looking for someone who'll surrender their power and be vulnerable to their manipulative ways.
People like this are users and they never truly find genuine love. True love does not exist outside the concept of reciprocity. You cannot take and not give in love. You can't say you want to be listened to and not listen to your partner in love. You can't talk about tolerance without touching on change.
The idea that someone will let their guards down and love you wholeheartedly whilst you continue to be selfish with your decisions and treat them like trash will keep you far away from finding and enjoying true love for life.
True love is continues daily work. It is emotional, mental and physical investment. Anyone who does absolutely nothing and expects to be loved perfectly is a selfish person, and selfish people never find true love.
Never!
