Introduction

Love is a deep and warmth feeling a person has for his/herself. I've always said that love begins by loving oneself. A person who doesn't love his/herself will find it difficult to love others or accept love when such a person is shown one.

Love is a beautiful thing. And so, in one way or the other, we have all experienced or shown love to people. I know this because even a baby understands love. When you smile at a baby, he/she will smile back at you reciprocating the love.

Thanks to our lovely @ninapenda for organising this contest with such a lovely topic.

If you had only five words left before losing your voice, what would you say to your loved ones?

Of course, as far as I know, I can't lose my voice just like that, I can always write. Assuming the unimaginable happens, I'll leave my loved ones with "Love your neighbour as yourself."

What is the best relationship advice you've received? Share with us.

I've received lots of advice that I can't even remember some. But I can remember my auntie telling me "do what makes you happy, if he loves you, he will support you."

Sometimes, we tend to trade our happiness and deepest joy for love and, in the end, it usually ends in "premium" tears. I knew a lady years back. She had a job offer outside of her city with good pay and accommodation. As a good girl, she decided to discuss it with her boyfriend. The guy asked her not to go, or she either choose between him and the job. She gave up the job offer and stayed back.

It wasn't long, the guy relocated abroad with the promise of coming to marry her. To cut the long story short, the guy never returned. She got married to another lady. That lady lost it all, her job and the relationship gone. So, do what gives you joy. If he loves you, he will support you. Don't trade your joy, life happens.

What makes people fall out of love? Explain in your own words.

Many things make people fall out of love.

  1. Insincerity/dishonesty

  2. Abuse (verbally, emotionally and physically)

  3. Disrespect

  4. Pride

  5. Cheating

I personally do not like insincere people around me. Such people are cheats, and usually abusers. They have no respect, always feeling on top of the world with pride.

Why is cheating never acceptable in a relationship? Air your view.

I personally feel jealous, I can't stand it. That's why I dare not catch anyone around my man else, or I'll bite off your right ear.

Cheating in any relationship is a red flag. The individual involved may never be satisfied, even in marriage. That's why I mentioned that insincere people are cheaters, because they're never satisfied, always wanting more.

Can any relationship ever exist without love? Explain.

No, no real relationship can survive without love. I understand that people are in relationships for different reasons, which could be money and other personal gratification from the people involved.

As far as I know, any relationship that has any motive other than true love will always come to an end when the aim is achieved.

Love is love. Nothing can stand in place of that, be it money or fame, beauty or something else. They'll fade.

Anytime I hear the mentioned of that word 'Love' my heart normally beat so fast, I might not really know why it's that way, but atimes I feel, it's because my name is 'Love' OR because I have had my own share of love abused and manipulated 😭.

I would have like to write a post on this topic but I won't go into that because it will feel like pouring more salt to my injury and it might end up in premium tears.

Las las, I will also share my love story someday.
Thanks for the invite, and I wish you success in the contest.

A very big hug for you Sis, you're a strong girl. I hope you find strength at all sides, your name is love that's enough strength and inspiration to move on.

Love can be cruel, but that doesn't mean that there's no true love. I hope to share in your joy soon.

Meanwhile, I've not been seeing you on this space recently, I hope you're doing great?

Best wishes dear and thank you for the support.

Thank you for your kind words and encouragement.

Sure, I am a strong girl and nothing can break me down. Yes I've actually been too busy with work, my new job is taking most of my time, but all the same I will try and see what I can do to remain consistent here.

Thank you once again for your words to me.

Thank you for the support, it's appreciated.

Love is truly love and is ultimate. Nothing can compete or be compared to love.

True love is endless. I have been in love and knows how it feels to love. Sometimes people mistake love for lust, especially men. Men are moved by what they see so they often feel lust rather than love.

Love is a beautiful and endless feelings of affection. Your writing is lovely too.

MODs Comment/Recommendation:

That's a powerful lesson your auntie shared. It's so true that sometimes we give up what makes us happy for the sake of love, and it can lead to regret. The story of that lady really highlights how important it is to prioritize our own happiness and opportunities. If someone truly loves you, they should want to see you succeed and support your dreams. Life can be unpredictable, and holding onto our joy is essential. Your advice to not trade happiness for love is a reminder that we should always choose what brings us fulfillment.
