two kinds..
Pure: unfiltered, unconditional, comes with acceptance, caring, and non-judgmental. It comes to you from the giver without strings. Never wanting or needing anything in return. It is not a love that is craved, or lusted for. It is gentle, soft, always there. When this love exist between two people, they can be apart for days, months, or even years and be as connected as they had never been apart.
It’s warm, calm, happy, joyful, with feelings of inner peace.
and “in love” : A temporary state of love. Can last up to 1 ½ years, but usually shorter. It is based on thirst of love, a constant need to be satisfied, but never is. Someone “in love” can never get enough and wants to be near the one they are in love with 24/7. It is a clouded state of mind.
As they say, “love is blind” the person “in love” will make decisions to please the one they are in love with even if it hurts them. At the time they do not even realize they are doing so. Only after the “in love” period is gone do they see what they have done. They do this due to the fear of losing the person and fearing losing the feelings they get while being with this person.

true love does exist... but most people are lying when they say they are in love, or that they understand it.
It may sound sad, but I believe it to be true.
For me, true love is something that I can feed and grow continually. It does not slow down or stop, for any reason. There were many times in my life when I found that my love for someone was conditional, as was theirs for me. This mistake taught me a lot of things...
which brings us back to the question..
Fear rules the human heart. Not fear of anything in particular, but fear that our doubts may come to live and breathe. Fear of loneliness is one of our strongest instincts. This causes many people to settle for a best fit relationship as they fear they may never find one true fit to their hearts desires.
True love is a leap of faith and as one other commenter said, always starts with friendship, without preconceived notions of what an ideal 'love' would or could be.
Simply put, most people settle out of fear, never give other relationships a chance to blossom into more, and are too ashamed to admit it.
The argument can be put however, that love means different things to different people, that some people have one type of love, some many different types, of varying strength and complexity.... and that true love is simply finding that rare someone that fits all your criteria... :/

Ah.... I see what's going on.. ....It happened to me too, bro. After Valentine's Day, they kinda just stop talking to you, then. PIFFFP! Their gone. ...It sucks. BUT, anyway, my answer. Yeah. It's out there, even though sometimes u don't think it'll ever show up! When ur down. Call on God's help, and u and the Holy Spirit together can make true love happen a lot sooner!

There is true love, it just takes time to establish it. The more you get to know each other, the more you grow closer and notice you're meant for each other.

Yes there is... But let me tell you, Love is a State of Mind...and it is only inside you...whenever you decide to trully love someone, he/she will be your true love until your mind decides to place that true love in someone else.
