What Makes Love True: A Guide to Matters of the Heart

As young girls, we think true love means Disney princesses being saved by their beloved and handsome prince and that they’ll fall in love and live happily ever after. While romance and marriage may have drops of that magical optimism, part of being in love is appreciating the smaller or everyday parts of being a couple.

In addition to featuring diamond engagement rings in their online store, Serendipity Diamonds is offering tips on what they believe constitutes true love and how the engagement ring shows that everlasting love.

What makes true love: Little Matters of the Heart

True love really isn’t a fairy tale, no matter how much you believe in love at first sight. It’s a nice romantic notion, but for true love and marriage to really work, you need so much more than attraction and feelings, you need commitment and appreciation and care for your relationship.

  • Give up on the illusion of destiny. No one is going fulfill every criteria or need on your list, whether it’s an athletic build, the status of an executive career, or that they want two dogs. As soon as loosen up about a few things, you’ll see if someone meshes with you on the things that are most important and be able to start a relationship.
  • Don’t be afraid to literally follow your partner to the ends of the earth. While some find chasing someone as desperate, it’s sometimes necessary to continue the relationship. If one of you is transferred overseas for career reasons, you wouldn’t just end the relationship, you’d follow them, and enjoy the adventure of learning a new culture together.
  • Take time to spend quality time together from a little time at the end of the day conversing about your day to an elaborate thought-out Saturday date. Couples don’t go on dates anymore and there’s still something special about walking hand-in hand through the park, sipping coffee at an outdoor cafe, or going to a special dinner before seeing a romantic comedy movie.
  • Write each other love notes, whether it’s too each other or tagged under photos, such as captioning a photo of you staring deep into each other’s eyes, “Your eyes are like windows to my soul. “
  • Spend time learning each other’s favorites like favorite coffee, favorite meal, favorite movie, favorite authors, so you’re never lost for ideas when birthdays and Christmas rolls around.
  • Do sweet things for your partner each day, whether it’s a quick hug on your way to work, a text saying “I love you,” or taking care of them, if they caught a seasonal cold.
  • Incorporate romance into your lives by buying flowers for no reason, snuggling by the fire on cold nights, and immersing yourselves in a candlelit bubble bath.
  • Make the proposal a moment you’ll both remember as it is the most important moment in her life. Treat it with respect and dignity and plan something romantic, whether it’s attaching the ring to her favorite rose or having the ring in the champagne glass at dinner at your favorite restaurant.
