When the first time I indulged a relationship,I was so demanding towards my girlfriend and I hated our relationship because of our immature characteristics.Just like, I don't like to be separated even just for a short while. I always want to be together physically or by phone and letter messages. And with all these insecurities and negative experienced I come up with a concrete realizations and learnings because the next relationship that I had, I already control myself as very demanding person and as very insecure one. My negative traits towards my girlfried really develop to a positive one. Yes, it's very true with regard to my experienced that my own experienced really is my best teacher to be a better and fully mature person. My broad description of LOVE is, love is sharing or investing oneself to others and accepting the self-investment of others. We must share or invest our love to someone because it is a special gift that is given to us from the Almighty and this gift should not be kept for ourselves alone but to be shared with other people-the lovable and more so to the unlovable. My simple definiton of love is, it is the attraction, desire, or affection felt for a person who arouses delight or admiration or elicits tenderness, sympathetic interest, or benevolence.
