Love. Amor. I love Love.

While I am a sucker for watching cheesy chick-flicks, cry at romantic things, its all because love makes me happy.... I love Love! And with Valentine's Day right around the corner, I felt like a Love post was necessary. I got my inspiration for this blog while listening to music in the car on my IPod. I define myself as a good listener and would never think of myself as a know-it-all on relationships, but I do think that I know what true happiness is. For all those countless hours I have spent crying, laughing, being mad about boys over the years has made me the person I am today. From those teenage girl years in high school of thinking I knew everything about love to the 26 year old woman I am today, I laugh to think I even had a clue about what real relationships were when I was 16. I believe that love is about growing and finding yourself. Sure, it is different for everyone, but I would like to share my experience. I have had three serious relationships. I am now 26 and look back at the times my dad would tell me "You are a beautiful and smart 21 year old, but a stupid 25 year old." I always looked at him with the same puzzled look every time. It all makes sense now! Love is finding that someone to grow with and you have to remember that no relationship is perfect. 

Love Rules to Live By:
#1 That both of you are on the same page about your relationship. Love is all about communication.
#2 No matter what, be loyal and truthful. 
#3 Always be happy and positive. 
#4 Talk openly about your hopes and dreams with each other. 
#5 Share every feeling with one another.


In no way am I saying my relationship is perfect (But pretty darn close!), I can't stress enough to girls and women out there that you should never sacrifice your own happiness no matter what. Do what is right for you, the rest will follow just how it is supposed to. I have learned to be more patient, I don't stress about the small things anymore in relationship and of course, jealously is never a good thing! Love is all about being yourself, finding yourself and growing and learning from experiences together.
