    True Love or Just strong feeling?
    OK so I fell in love with this girl and we were together for 1 year then now that I am at college we have this year apart and we are not together. I want to know if it is true love that I feel for her or just strong feelings. OK every time I see her my day brightens. When she smiles my heart skips a beat. When I look into her beautiful brown eyes I don't have a care in the world all I want to do is be with her. I can't go to sleep with out her texting me or hearing that gorgeus voice of hers. When we used to kiss I would feel like nothing else was around us and that she was the only person in the world I could ever care for this way. I could be watching some random movie or TV show and I will seem to somehow relate it to her. I check my Facebook like everyday just to see if she left a message and to check how she is feeling. I want to be with her. We want to be together but we can't do long distance.I want to move back or she wants to move here but I want to make sure I am feeling true love and not just strong feelings. What should I do? Is this true love?

    It could be love or infatuation. You tell us. We can't tell you.

    No one here can tell you whether what you have is true love. Why bother trying to label what you have with this girl anyway? Just enjoy it for what it is, whatever that might be.

    All love is real. But true love isn't something you stamp on the front end of a relationship. TRUE love is love that has already stood the test of time. True love is the love and commitment and sacrificial attitude that has allowed you to bond to one person and survive the decades of crap the universe has thrown at you.

    TRUE love is an accomplishment. It's something you DO, not something you have.

    Meanwhile, what you're feeling is what you're feeling. Strong feeling, infatuation, lust, puppy love... all of these terms are a waste of time.

    Life is what you DO, not what you feel. Stop wasting time analyzing your feelings and get out there and LIVE. Move to be with her and "find out" if you can accomplish true love with her... or don't. But stop thinking you'll know in advance the answer. You can't.

    You have to risk it. So enjoy the ride.
