I though I was in love twice but they were jerks!!!
3rd bf I just wanted him as a friend and little by little I was in love with him and who he was. We have two girls. It gets hard at times but we never let each other go. Love comes to you without you even trying to look for it. It's a natural thing that just happens. When you are really in love you don't have the need to prove anything to anyone or show off your life style , your partner or even the way he is or treats you, when you have a good perfect thing that is true and honest you do anything to shelter it and protect it.
Just a honest advice
