How To Make Awesome Love In Instant Way
Life, nowadays, has been filled with cheating and lies. That’s why; never trust anybody just says “I love you”. It is not conditional that the person, who tells you that s/he loves you, loves you really. Love is not just sweet words that have been always said but love is actions and behaviors. Love is a sincere feeling.
In order to keep your lover’s love, here are some tips;
– Who really loves, never hurts their loved ones.
– Who really loves, can bear pain and never causes the beloved’s pain.
– Who really loves wishes to be forever with their beloved and never let them down.
– Who really loves, must carry out promises to their beloved.
-Love is not only moments passed in reality but also memorable moments that can not leave memory and still present in the lover’s mind and in their Imagination.
Love is not just a word but it is a meaning….. It is only felt by the one who has a big heart that can really love, give and sacrifice.
Love is the most beautiful feeling….. It makes everything in life smiling.
In love, The beloved must feel secured with their lover even if there is a distance between.
Love learns people how to forgive and tolerate…. it gives human sense of comfort and happiness.
Who really loves, tries to satisfy their beloved, even it is against their favor.
In love, neither leaves whom really loves you nor keep loving whom does not.
Never feel sorry about love you have lived even if it became a painful memory since if the flowers have dried up and lost their fragrance and nothing remains but thorns, do not forget that they have given you a beautiful fragrance made you happy one day.
Never destroy all links with your loved ones as there might be another chance given by fate to reunite again. It may restore everything and reunite what have been separated.
If the most beautiful moments have passed away, There can be much more beautiful moments coming. Who knows???
Love’s tears are very beautiful when they found lover’s hand wipes them.
If you decided to leave you beloved, do not leave them pains. As whom trusted and loved you once, never deserves to be left misery.
If fate determined separation, never remember but every sincere sense and talk about them nobly and gently and remember only the good time you have spent with.
If you felt alone, try to remember all the beautiful days. Leave out all feelings of pain and loneliness that have separated you.
Try to gather all sweet words that you have heard from your loved ones and remember your sincere talks with them.
If people have asked you about your beloved, never reveal any of the secrets between you.
Never try to distort their lovely image within yourselves. Make your heart a secret hideout for your beloved’s secrets and tales.
Love is ethics before being a feeling.
If destiny has determined to reunite you again, do not start blame and disconcerting and remember the last lovely moment to reunite the past with present.
Do not look for what happened in the past as what happened has already happened and finished, completely finished. Now, Present is more important than past. The moment of being gathered is more beautiful than many ones passed in loneliness.
Both, try to avoid your preceding faults that caused your separation in order to get an advantage of your last experiences. Never think of taking revenge from your beloveds, as it would cause a loss in your emotional life.
Remember, taking revenge is not an attitude in lovers’ world. It is awful to be a knight without ethics.
When separation is severely required, never leave a solution to reunite not taken. If you find out that all the doors of reconciliation are closed between you. There is no hope. In the case that, whom you truly love, has given up loving you and considered you just a memory, here you must think that your dignity is much more important than your broken heart.
It is not fair to keep calling a lover who does not hear you or live in a place where no body knows you or to live on a memory of someone whom left you alone and chose separation without a reason.
Man’s love appears through words, but woman’s love appears through tears and kisses.
Three people have the same mentalities: The poet, the insane and the lover.
It means nothing to be the first beloved to a woman, but it means everything to be the last one.
Smart lover always tries to make his lady laugh and smile as woman’s heart looks like the kid’s always keens on playing and laughing.
Always remember that some of friendships based on sacrifice, the majority of love based on sacrifice, but marriage means the sacrifice itself.
