Unfortunately, Natilie, as much as I would like to agree with you, Love 
seems to be an ideal that is ever so elusive.  Love in the 90's seems to 
last only a bit longer than lust.  All those relationships when you're 
asking yourself, "Is this the one?" seems to end in heart break.  

"I love you... today" seems to be the answer.  I'm trying to remember the 
ex-girlfriends that I've dated that ended up hating me or me hating them. 
  And the few of them that I thought I was truely "in love" with, turned 
bitter.  What's the divorce rate at?  Why not be honest with ourselves?  
We have no clue what love is.  Love is just an ideal.  It would be nice 
to find someone to Love forever.
