Why his tough stance and rather dry aroma looked more enticing in a party and not when you actually needed an emotional support in real time. Or her super hot look attracting you from all corners became too much to handle when the same sense prevailed at all times, and on all men.
By the time you are past twenty five you know this:
Chasing a dream partner is better than living with one.
And along with this thought comes feelings of regret, dejection and the sorrow of having loved and lost.
True love is not perfect love, but love that finds you to be happy.
In your run up to the dreaded thirty remember the following
Love is what you make of it
Your partner like you is also finding faults in you
No relationships is an offset of one person but two
The more you grow old the more you will need love
True love is flawed
The more you go old the more flawed you get

How about Living with a Partner and chasing another one ? đ
Hahaha! Good one. ☺
Laughing out loud at this đ Good one đ
I completely agree Richa! I am living my dreams and doing things that I love without asking/seeking/with a free mind cz of my dream partner who gives me space, understands, appreciates, supports and encourages! I am glad and proud I married at 25!
Yeah, its great to chase a dream partner đ Do I need to say more ? đ
Hi, Richa. I found my true love in kindergarten, though of course I didn’t know it then. We became friends in second grade (he gave me a rock that I still have) and had crushes on each other since then and finally fell in love in high school. We’ve been married nearly six years now. He’s been in all the big moments in my life and I’m grateful he’ll be in all the big moments yet to come!

I met my true love when I was fifteen and have been with him ever since.
Ive run into several relationship posts today.
Love changes like the seasons.
As I have gotten old, I look for different things than when I was young.
We have had some hard times and yet there is always laughter, love and passion.
Enjoy the A to Z Challenge

Well, love is a beautiful feeling I am sure and more so to live together. I am in my 30s n enjoy being single n choose to lead ma life minus partner..love ma solitude n it’s a personal choice. I dnt have anything against love or marriage but put it that way, some people are better off being single or un married. But, love ur post, Richa:)
Love is something you cannot live without ..
Only love is not sufficient to live a happy life.
Love has to held together with mutual respect and emotional support đ
True love is flawed ; the more your age the more flawed you get đ That’s the cake here. There’s nothing called perfect love ; perfect love has flaws in it, doesn’t it ! Unless there’s mutual support and respect, love doesnt remain strong either !!
I met him when we were nineteen! been together since… have been married for three! guess I am lucky that I didnt have to go through heart break and lost love. but it was nearly same when we stayed in two different continents for two years!
As someone who knows the ‘chasing’ part pretty well, I totally connect with this post.. Cheers

The biggest fault one makes is trying to find perfection in Love. The beauty of love is how it still gives you butterflies with all its inbuilt imperfections. This was a beauty !
Love – that’s one thing I am good at and I am bad at!! Ha ha. Nice post for C!!!

Smile, it makes (y)our day!
Great piece of advice. But before all this, learn to love yourself – the voice of experience (read old age) speaking! đ
few years down the lane – the charm of chasing will wane down đ
I think love is the ability to sit together and get bored and still want to be together…
Love is sitting with laptops in the same room doing different things but still needing to be in the same room…
Love is doing things completely against our views and beliefs for the other…
love is listening to ur wife bitch about everything and anything even if you know you dn’t understand what she is saying!
Love is understanding that the husband wants to watch cricket on tv and also read cricinfo at the same time!
hehe I have more but I’ll stop now đ

true…I got married to my love after 9 years of courtship..owing to our different backgrounds of culture and religion, it took quite sometime for us to be finally together.

After lots of drama I too got married to my love… Makes the whole journey even more memorable đ the title really caught my attention.
I think in order to love someone or find love, you need to love yourself first. Otherwise we get into relationships for the wrong reasons and become dependent or enmeshed. And sometimes you don’t learn to love yourself until later in life. But I definitely agree that there is no perfect love.
I think there isn’t any true love, as love is true and so also hatred.Both are true.No need of an adjective.When love is not there,there will be tolerance or hatrd.But you have analysed briefly and beautifully.
Love – the most mystifying and mysterious thing. And yet so simple. If we know how to love despite all the imperfections in the other person, and despite all the imperfections in us. This is definitely an important topic for those in the mid-20s trying to find that true love…well written, Richa!
Soulmate? No such thing đ I believe we all have our flaws and we keep finding them and working on them as the relationship progresses. And we grow, literally and emotionally, with those flaws being ironed out beautifully. Very thought-provoking post, Richa!
True love is flawed, is so true đ Growing old and flawed together is the best kind of life and I am living it. This month we complete 26 years of togetherness đ
HI there – from the A-to-Z challenge – True love really is what you make of it, and flawed. Was reading a quote today about perfection – there is no such thing. It can never be attained. But we can be happy and feel loved and love with all are hearts – doesn’t mean we are not without our flaws – we love inspite of our flaws, and it’s what makes us ‘us’. Happy Thursday to you đ

True love is is when you understand each other in spite of the flaws. We met in our early twenties and this our 55th year of togetherness. I am 79 and my husband is 80. We still understand each other. Even our children have celebrated silver jubilee of married life.Touch Wood!!
True love is needed the more flaws we have because that makes us go further faster! Great post! And yes, touch wood…I’ve found true love đ
Interesting theme, and I’m glad to have found your blog. Happy A to Zing! đ
Yup…somehow it’s not such a dream when you have finished the chase!
I found my true love in 1971 and we are still together. You are so right; love IS flawed, we ARE flawed, but love conquers all! đ
Love can come in all stages of life, and in so many different forms, and sometimes when you least expect it but need it the most.. Going old and wise with your love is a good way to go:-) I think…:-)

The heading caught my attention but later I think I realized what you wanted to mean. Liked the philosophy following and the quote about true love. Accepting imperfections and live with it – mantra for a happy life to me.
Living with your love and realizing them to be human, flawed like you. Essence of a peaceful life. Different take on it but I like it.
Health and Happiness always.

For the ever pessimistic about relationships, this comes a little bit of a relief.

Love is perfect eg. the love we feel for our children is never flawed. It’s behaviour that is flawed. Your post made me think a lot. Nice one Richa.
Well said…it isnt about a complete partner, it is about another incomplete who makes a complete relationship đ you are doing awesome madam đ
The more you grow old the more you will need love.
Very True. Even experiencing that state of mind !!
Thanks for a wonderful post.
I’m yet to find my true love…!! Finding perfection in the most imperfect one is love for me… đ
We always fall in love with the most perfect aspects of each other’s personalities but we all have our flaws too. Accepting the flaws, learning to let go and focusing on the positives is the key, I believe! đ
Life is beautiful when their are flaws, love works the same way, this was a beautiful post Richa.. đ
