In Love with Being In Love

There is a phenomenon, usually I suspect amongst younger adults, where some people are more in love with the notion of being in love than with the actual act of loving somebody. Their desire for love and their need to find someone to match their requirements can be so strong that they are in danger of never finding someone to meet their expectations. When they are in a relationship they can often mess it up by focusing on how much love they are receiving as opposed to how much they are giving.

The truth is that in our lives we should do all we can with what we have. You cannot really determine how much someone loves you, but you are able to make a big effort to show how much you love them. Make that effort and try not to dream so much about how much love you wish to get back. The latter will only leave you feeling short-changed and frustrated, whilst at the same time probably neglecting your relationship, whereas the former is more likely to make your dreams become reality and the relationship to work. Being in love with being in love is slightly infantile and not the best strategy for relationship success.
