I have learned many things about true love through my interviews. One thing is it is hard to describe. This may be due to the fact that it is a topic some people rarly discuss. Another thing is that most people suggest true love is between two people. This may be due to the fact this is how they learned what true love is from their predecessores. In conclusion this is my intake on what I learned from my interviews on true love>
I learned a lot of things through my interviews about true love. All of the people I interviewed said true love was forever, so I learned that true love can be forever. I also learned that a lot of people have different views on whether teen can be in true love of not. I also learned that if love and true love are completely different things and have very big differences. Also I learned from most of the people I interviewed that true love is unconditional love which is a very smart and accurate way of describing it. Another thing I learned from a person I interviewed was that signs of true love are when two people have trust and mutual respect for each other, and not trying to change the other person.
Madison Hayes In my interviews i learned that true love isnt always noticeable at first, true love cancome in different forms and may not be recognizable at first. In the end, true love is forever lasting and sometimes you dont realize its true love until many years later.
After conducting my interviews this weekend, I learned about the many different ideas people have about true love. There were some questions I asked that inspired much more thoughtful answers than others and really made me think about my own views on this topic. There were also some answers that I didn’t expect. I interviewed my grandmother who’s been married for ten years, my father and a friend who is my age. I asked my interviewees to describe to me what they believed were the differences between being “in love” and having “true love”. The most interesting answer I got was that true love was when you would be happy as long as the other person was happy, no matter if your loves decision was good for you or not. I also had the answer that true was for eternity and being in love is more temporary. The third interviewee came up with the answer that true love was unconditional and being in love could easily be broken by certain situations. I found these answers when put together came up with the most detailed description of true love. I also thought these answers were interesting because all of the interviewees saw in love as perhaps the first stage of true love. When I explored their answers more I realized they thought true love was more of a stage in a relationship. They didn’t think that you had to have true love right away; some thought true love could only be with one person yet they said you couldn’t obtain true love right away. It had to be worked for and gained as a relationship progressed. I found that I personally agree with the ideas of those that I interviewed. I also learned, to my surprise, that all of my interviewees believed teenagers could achieve true love. I thought that my grandmother specifically would think that teenagers were unable to feel true love. I was intrigued when I found that all of the people I interviewed think that teenagers can find true love. The interviewees did believe that it is rather difficult and rare for teenagers to experience true love, but they still believed it was possible. I asked what age they thought someone could experience true love at and their answers were about someone’s maturity level, rather than age. Each person I interviewed believed that a person could experience true love at any age but the person must be mature enough to have good ideas about what love is. I agree with the answers I earned. I don’t believe that age can determine whether someone finds true love, but I do think that teenagers tend not to be able to find true love, most likely because their ideas of who they are and who they want to be with will change. These interviews did influence changes in my thoughts about what true love is. I asked many more questions than the two I just talked about, but the two questions included in this post were the most interesting to me. With all of the information that I gained through this interviews, my ideas about what true love is are becoming more evolved. I realize now that true love isn’t simply wanting to spend your life with someone. My father told me in his interview that he believes that teenagers don’t experience true love often because they don’t realize how much responsibility you have to put into the relationship. As a teenager now, I agree with the statements made by my interviewees. These interviews really did help me to begin to understand more about what true love is.
From my interviews with my dad, two of my friends that are my age, and one of their younger siblings I learned more about love and how age can alter the perspectives of it. To elaborate, when talking to my dad he had very confident answers to most of the questions like how he believed in true love because of him and my mom and how teenage love is not necessarily true love even though kids might think it is true. Although even though the two peers I interviewed both thought true love was something real and possible to achieve, they were more unsure on whether or not true love in a teenage relationship was true or the perfect love story like The Notebook was actually possible. Furthermore, the youngest of my interviewees who was in the six grade was unsure about whether or not even true love existed at all. In addition, something that I did find out is a pretty universal thought is that we do not tell people we love each other enough. Even more than that everyone thought that it is very important to tell each other we love them more often so we do not have any regrets if we unexpectedly never get to see anyone again. Another point I really liked that was raised was how we need to tell people we love them because sometimes not saying it could hurt a relationship if someone does not know how the other person feels. Overall, my interviews gave me good information on how different ages perceive love.
True love during my interviews was a hard thing to describe and a easy thing to describe. What I mean by hard to describe is my dad was describing that true love is like a person being a part of you. When I said an easy thing to describe I asked my cousin who is in his 20s and married on what true love is to him. He easily describe on what true love is. My cousin said that true love is were you take care of that other person you love most, protect them, always wanting to be with the other person you know thing like that. With these two different interviews I notice that age does come with experience. What i mean by that is how the young know think what true love is while the old have more experience and basically say that love is indescribable for words. I then asked my family if true love is possible for kids who are in high school or even middle school. My father said that no it's not possible because they are only little children and they don't have the knowledge and the responsibility to have a relationship. My cousin on the other hand thinks it's possible because him and his wife were high school sweethearts since 10th grade. So what I finally concluded is that age comes with experience. I also notice that true love depends who your asking and how old you are. So overall true love can be describe as indescribable or true love is something that you can easily describe depending on your age and experience in life.
I think your experience shows that people learn about love through their own unique experiences. So if someone is still in love with their high school sweetheart, they will definitely believe that teens can be blessed with a perfect match!
I've learned a lot about true love through my interviews. I think the interview that was most helpful was my dad's. He stated that true love is out there for everyone, but the challenge is finding it. Some people take longer than others to find their true love, and some don't even find true love in their lifetime. He also said teens in relationships don't realize that there is a big world out there and they shouldn't rush themselves into finding their true love; that it will happen when it happens.
Through my interviews I have learned a lot about true love. I think that one of the most important things I've learned, is that people have different perspectives on love, and what it means to be in love. Another important thing that I have learned is that love really depends upon the people. What I mean by this, is that there is not a cutoff between the age of when someone can or cannot be in love. Asking the question "Can teens be in love?" is not a fair question. Some teenagers are extremely mature for their age or may have different levels of stress or hardships in their lives. This affects whether or not someone can be in love, not their age. I have also learned that love can come in many different forms. You can love your family, you can love someone that you are in a relationship with, and you can be in love with someone you are in a relationship with. There is no definite line between love and being in love, it just depends on the opinion and on the people involved. These interviews have taught me a lot.
The people I interviewed had many different responses to my quetions about love. Love depends on the person you are talking to. Because people have had different experiences with love, they thought about the questions I asked in different ways. One person thought that there is a perfect person out there for everyone, while another said that it was impossible. Everyone i interviewed did say that there was a difference between love and true love. I hope to find that my research relates to some of the answers I received.
So far with my interviews, I have learned that true love is rare. It doesn't happen to everyone. But when true love does exist, then it doesn't differentiate people by their looks or their race. Also, it is unpredictable. You never know who you are going to fall for, and at what time. It could come at the worst possible time, or the best possible time. Love is something that shouldn't be taken for granted, because you may not feel it again. P.S. Sorry this is late Myer
I have concluded that from my interviews that people believe true love is difficult of find, but it is definitely out there. Also, it won't be a perfect situation, there will be times were it is hard. Lastly, it takes a commitment to find and maintain a loving relationship
What I learned about true love after interviewing a few poeple, is that it is based on an attraction to another person. I interviewed three people and everyone, whether it was an adult, or a kid said that there was an attraction to one another involved. I also learned that the adults I interviewed gave a better description, and it seemed that they knew more about what they where talking about than the kids did. When I interviewed my history teacher Mr. Magano, he said that love is an intimate connection that two pople share. Also that it is based of off a mutual understanding of one anohter, and who they are. This response was much more informed about what love really is that the other two people that I interviewed.
After the interviews that I conducted I learned many new things about love. When I asked my mom the question "what things matter the most to you in a relationship". She did not answer the typical answer of trust and respect; she said that communication was the key. She told me that if you do not have communication in a relationship then it will not last for more than a week. When I asked my father "what was different about mom than any other girl?" He said that she was humble. He told me that even though he was from another country and had an accent she never made fun of him or made the comment like the others would. So overall I learned that if i want a relationship to last, I must be humble and communicate with my partner.
I have learned a lot so far from my three interviews on true love. its a very, emotionally strong feeling that almost overwhelms you in a good way. It just pops up on you, and you cant hide or keep it inside of you. Its an attraction, that may not always work out. In order for it to grow it needs support, time, and effort. True love can make you feel like your on the top of the world. Although,it must be handled carefully because it can be both strong, yet fragile. All in all, this is what I've learned so far on true love.
After reading my interviews I have learned a lot about true love. First, I have learned that it is hard for people to describe. One person said that it was an undescribable feeling and that you just know when you see true love or are part of true love. Friendship, faithfulness, commitment honesty, a deeper understanding of each other were words that were used to describe the 'elements' that create true love. People said that it takes commitment, respect and friendship to have a healthy relationship. It is when there is a deeper understanding of each other, putting each other first and the desire that without them you would be lost completely there is true love. Fianlly, everyone who I talked to believed in true love.
I have learned over time that love is an eternal part of a human's well being. Without love, we cannot live a healthy life. From interviewing my parents, they said that love is a unique, yet very common thing. Everyone falls in love. However, it is hard to fall in a love that will be constant and forever. That is what makes a love unique. From interviewing my friends, they said that love is full of trust and commitment. Without trust and commitment, you cannot have a devoted relationship to one another. It is practically impossible. Love is one of the most common necessities in life, and without it, we wouldn't be living the great life we are now. Kaelyn Zak
In my interviews I learned (From my friends) that they think finding true love is hopeless, and some of my friends think it isn't worth it to go and look for it. One of my friends, who I know for a fact is in love with her boyfriend did give me a pretty... extensive interview. While my other friends found that love is hopeless, this friend actually said love is something accepting, that is rare, that you don't often get and you can't actually plan to fall in love or love anybody. She said that love isn't just a feeling, it's like a lifestyle. She went on to tell me that love isn't something you can control, just as feelings aren't. Basically, my results were a bit scattered, but my friend that gave me the extensive interview was a bit of an outlier, I don't know what to make of my results as a whole. -Taylor Pendleton Sorry it's late !
I have acutally learned a lot from the interviews about true love. I learned that there is honestly hope for all of us in the world. I also learned that many people think that there is truly someone out there for everyone. I also learned that love is an emotional rollercoaster, but if you truly love someone, you will ride the rollercoaster with them and all that matters is that you're together. Another person that I interviewed said that true love is growing old together and loving each other for who the person really is. Also, you accept people's flaws. These interviews have really opened my eyes to how powerful love can be.
By conducting the interviews, I had learned a lot about true love and also a lot about the people I interviewed.I had interviewed my mom, my sister (who is 19), and my best friend (who is 14). All three had the same basic idea of true love. They defined it as finding someone that you care for and both of you putting their needs in front of your own. True love is also when you respect and trust the other unconditionally. My mom and my sister both believed in love at first sight, but my best friend didn't. She says you have to know someone to know they're for you. I was surprised at their responses on love at first sight because I expected the youngest person I interviewed to believe in it and not the others. Typically young kids get their ideas about love from movies and books. This gives them high expectations for their love lives. I think this is the biggest problem with this generation. The don't realize that if you really love someone, you would care for them and pick each other up, and it must be unconditional.
From my interviews I found that people do believe in true love and that people believe everyone has a true match. One thing I seemed to find was people were unsure how to describe what true love is. Both of my parents were unsure on the topic of true love in teenagers. One said, after hesitation, that true love in teenagers can exist although it only lies in relationships that last a long time. My parents will have been married for 20 years come May and I believe that they are an example of true love. My mom also agreed with me in saying that although she believes her parents and my dad’s parents have the best love stories of them all. This being because they have lasted for much longer. My parents hope that their love story ends up being great also. They know that true love lasts forever and you never lose the feeling of when you first saw the person you love, that's when you know your love is not only real but also true.
After interviewing my family members and friends about "True Love" I have learned a few things. The first thing is that most of the kids I interviewed said like hugs and kisses were "True love" but the adults said other things. What I mean by that is the kids said less meaningful things and the adults said more meaningful things. I think it is because they have more experiences in love than the little kids. They have grown up and experienced more in their lives and said things that were more true.
After conducting my interviews, I have learned several new things about 'true' love. First, I have learned that true love comes more pure with age and experience. When interviewing my mom, I asked her if she felt that teenagers could be in love. She answered that she does not believe so because teens can be stupid and will just think they are in love. When she was a teenager, she always thought she was in love. However, she learned from experience that being in a relationship doesn't necessarily mean that you are in love with this person. It doesn't mean that they are your true love just because you have mutual feelings for them. However, several of my friends feel that you can be in love as a teenager. They answered the same question that teenagers have the same symptoms of love as adults do. They expanded further that teenagers think about the person they love all day, just as adults would. However, I side with my mom that teens may just feel that they are in love in the moment of being in a relationship. Teens could just feel they are in love, but there are so many people in the world. The odds that you meet your true love as a teenager are very unlikely.
From my interviews, I have learned that many different people have different feeling and opinions on love. For definition of love most people. My sister told me to get out of her room, my Mom and Dad said it had to do with emotions, and a few of my friends answered in different ways. I also asked my friends ways to express love and most said kind words and hugs, kisses ect. In the few people I interviewed, however, most had to do with a similar thing, but they were also a bit different.
From the interviews that I conducted, I found that “true love” is an increasingly rare phenomenon in our world today. In fact, of the people I interviewed, only one believed that it still exists today. Many people stated that love was also clouded or brought down by personal pride, and an increasing separation on the levels of understanding between people in the world today. The high number of divorces also seemed to play a role in the opinions of those interviewed regarding the state of love today and “true love” in general. Most of those interviewed agreed that love faces many barriers as it grows in a relationship or begins to decay, most of which involved personal emotions and character traits. The overall consensus was not in favor of true love, though it seems as if there may still be some hope for true love today.
From my interviews about love I learned many ideas that people had about it and it definitely shifted my opinion in some ways. The people I interviewed were two of my classmates as well as my father. They all had very similar opinions of love, being putting the other in front of you whether it is your parents, siblings, dog, or other. No one that I interviewed in fact believed in love at first sight. They all believed that “love at first sight” are not actual love because you cannot tell if you actually like the person, but instead you are judging them purely on their looks. Although many may believe that loves can come instantly it takes time to build up to the state of true love where you put the other before yourself.
After interviewing my parents and a few others, I learned some things about love, and true love. First off, a person's opinion about what love is, is often similar to their significant other. For example, I interviewed my mom and dad separately. My mom thought love was about trust and reliability, while also enjoying spending time with the person you love. My dad used nearly the same words, describing love as having sort of a best friend that's always there for you. Some friends I interviewed said that true love is impossible, and others weren't rally sure. I think it's something that you can only find out yourself.
I learned a number of things about love. One major piece of knowledge I gained was love comes with age. When I interviewed my math teacher she had A LOT to say. She had been through a lot of relationships. Each failed one she walked away with a lesson. However, when I interviewed two girls my age they did not really know what to say. The questions made them feel awkward. One of them even refused to answer like half the questions. Furthermore, I learned love is never perfect. A successful relationship is one where flaws are embraced. The I interviewed said you can not change a person. If a person truly isn't what you want you have to move on.
While interviewing multiple people on love, I learned a few different things about this topic.When I asked about love at first sight, the general consensus was that no, this really couldn't happen. You wouldn't know if you loved somebody until you actually got to know them and who they actually are. You can't know this about someone just by looking at them. I also learned that it really doesn't matter how young you are before you fall in love. Although most of the time people really aren't, there are some occasions when this is actually true. You shouldn't just think all kids under a certain age can't fall in love, for sometimes it is true. love. Joshua Tyler
I have found true love is different through the eyes of different people. When i asked my parents if they have found true love they both described basically the same reasons why. When i asked my sister the same question she also said yes. She said her true love was Justin Bieber even though she has never met him before. This is why I think love is viewed more seriosly as an adult rather than a kid.
Throughout my interviews, I have found many interestiong thoughts and opionions about what love is. I had three questions for every person. The first one was, what is love in your opinion? My responses were, love is when you had very deep feelings for a person, love is when you really really like someone, but sometimes people think they are in love but they aren't, and love is when you meet the perfect match. The second answer really surprised me. Although it is true, my friend really wanted to emphasize that some people believe that they are in love, when they really are not. I thought about this and I also believe that this is true. My next question was, do you believe in love at first sight? My responses were, yes I do, sometimes, and no. I was surprised to see that all of the answers were different. I guess that everyone has a different opion on love at first sight. If I had to answer that I would say no, because I feel like you should know the person before you fall in love with them. Finaly, my last question was, Do you think people can be in love forever? My responses were, yes, but only if they make it work, yes, if their perfect for eachother, and yes, but only if they truly are in love. I learned that if you want to stay in love forever, you have to make it work and you have to be perfect for eachother. I really agree with what everyone said in their interviews; they all had great points.
I learned a lot of things through my interview about true love. All of the people I interviewed had a different answer for what true love is. Although they answered that love takes loyalty and trust in the other. My dad said something that was very interesting to me, he said “It’s very easy to fall in love; it’s a choice to stay in love.” People fall in love all the time but its people choice to keep those feelings. I also learned that love is never giving up on somebody and accepting them for everything they are and everything they are not. That love takes compromise and wanting to make things work. That you can never be too old to fall in love and even teenagers can fall in love too even though they are still young. There interviews have opened my mind much more on this topic and I learned a lot.
In my interviews, I have learned a few things.I learned that true love is a thing that some people believe in. Some people don't believe in true love. I believe in true love and I think that most people will find if they try to look. True love is different for many people. I do not think that teenagers will find true love, but as we get older, we will. P.S. sorry this is late.
I have learned a few things about true love from the interviews I did. Many of the people I interviewed had very similar views on true love and said almost the same thing to every question. When I asked what true love feels like, the people I interviewed said it felt happy and joyful. From interviewing kids my age, it has opened my eyes to what true love actually is.
After interviewing my friends and family I learned true love is not something you can force, it just happens when you meet that special someone. The two people I interviewed that are my age felt that true love is something special and important that occurs in your life and that to have true love, the two people must truly care about one another and be committed to be with one another. However my grandma who got divorced with my mother's father before I was born and said that she has not found true love said that when you have true love to someone you should not forget about the other important people in your life. This helped me learn that although true love is very important and is a very positive thing, you can not let it take over your life and make you forget about everything else and everyone else that is important in life.
Matthew Albanese In my interviews, I have learned that true love always conquers all. It can't be forced, and if it is true love it will work no matter what happens. Although, for it to work both sides have to be committed. True love is something that will last forever and will happen with a significant other. I've also learned that people should learn to respect one another more, and tell each other that they love each other more often in relationships. We don't tell the people we care about that we actually care for them. Sometimes it can make a huge difference just by saying those 3 words. Also, my family also thought that a relationship won't work if there is a huge difference in the ages of the male and the female. For instance, the male is 60 and the female is 30. As we get older, our chances of finding true love increase, because you understand it more. I've learned a lot about true love and people's opinions on it in my interviews. Sorry this is late.
Jason Hopkins My mom thinks true love is thinking of someone else before yourself. Accepting somebody else despite their their faults is another aspect of true love. My sister thinks true love is about liking someone the way they are and sharing respect and trust. My dad thinks true love is not forced. He thinks its more about caring the other person, than just buying them gifts. He also thinks that true love means you have to love the whole person; not just their looks
Maya LaFleur After conducting multiple interviews about the topic of love, I have learned many things. One thing I have learned about love is that it isnt easy for everyone. One person I had interviewed said that he and his ex-girlfriend had dated for over two years but then they suddenly lost feelings for eachother and it was so bittersweet. This tells me that love has many different meanings. You can love someone without having to be dating them. You love your friends, family and boyfriend/girlfriends. I also learned that love can be complicated. Sometimes it wont always work in your favor but if you truly love someone and that someone loves you back things will work out.
From my interviews about true love I have learned that in order for love to be true, both people must be dedicated to each other and no boundaries can prevent those people from loving or seeing each other. True love is when the person you love is all you need in the world and he or she makes you happy. If two people are truly in love they won't give up on each other and won't feel pressured to cheat. Finally,true love is love that is real and when you trust the person and feel really comfortable around them.

As a teenager now, I agree with the statements made by my interviewees. These interviews really did help me to begin to understand more about what true love is.
Wow! Great interviews, Terren! And so on point. Great job.
DeleteFrom my interviews with my dad, two of my friends that are my age, and one of their younger siblings I learned more about love and how age can alter the perspectives of it.

Another point I really liked that was raised was how we need to tell people we love them because sometimes not saying it could hurt a relationship if someone does not know how the other person feels. Overall, my interviews gave me good information on how different ages perceive love.
ReplyDeleteI'm not sure about The Notebook... so I guess I'm in agreement with your 6th grader!

ReplyDeleteTrue love during my interviews was a hard thing to describe and a easy thing to describe. What I mean by hard to describe is my dad was describing that true love is like a person being a part of you. When I said an easy thing to describe I asked my cousin who is in his 20s and married on what true love is to him. He easily describe on what true love is. My cousin said that true love is were you take care of that other person you love most, protect them, always wanting to be with the other person you know thing like that. With these two different interviews I notice that age does come with experience. What i mean by that is how the young know think what true love is while the old have more experience and basically say that love is indescribable for words. I then asked my family if true love is possible for kids who are in high school or even middle school. My father said that no it's not possible because they are only little children and they don't have the knowledge and the responsibility to have a relationship. My cousin on the other hand thinks it's possible because him and his wife were high school sweethearts since 10th grade. So what I finally concluded is that age comes with experience. I also notice that true love depends who your asking and how old you are. So overall true love can be describe as indescribable or true love is something that you can easily describe depending on your age and experience in life.
I think your experience shows that people learn about love through their own unique experiences. So if someone is still in love with their high school sweetheart, they will definitely believe that teens can be blessed with a perfect match!
DeleteI've learned a lot about true love through my interviews. I think the interview that was most helpful was my dad's. He stated that true love is out there for everyone, but the challenge is finding it. Some people take longer than others to find their true love, and some don't even find true love in their lifetime. He also said teens in relationships don't realize that there is a big world out there and they shouldn't rush themselves into finding their true love; that it will happen when it happens.
ReplyDeleteDo you think that there is more than one 'true' match for someone?
DeleteThrough my interviews I have learned a lot about true love. I think that one of the most important things I've learned, is that people have different perspectives on love, and what it means to be in love. Another important thing that I have learned is that love really depends upon the people. What I mean by this, is that there is not a cutoff between the age of when someone can or cannot be in love. Asking the question "Can teens be in love?" is not a fair question. Some teenagers are extremely mature for their age or may have different levels of stress or hardships in their lives. This affects whether or not someone can be in love, not their age. I have also learned that love can come in many different forms. You can love your family, you can love someone that you are in a relationship with, and you can be in love with someone you are in a relationship with. There is no definite line between love and being in love, it just depends on the opinion and on the people involved. These interviews have taught me a lot.

Good question. Can elderly people fall in love?
DeleteThe people I interviewed had many different responses to my quetions about love. Love depends on the person you are talking to. Because people have had different experiences with love, they thought about the questions I asked in different ways. One person thought that there is a perfect person out there for everyone, while another said that it was impossible. Everyone i interviewed did say that there was a difference between love and true love. I hope to find that my research relates to some of the answers I received.
ReplyDeleteSo far with my interviews, I have learned that true love is rare. It doesn't happen to everyone. But when true love does exist, then it doesn't differentiate people by their looks or their race. Also, it is unpredictable. You never know who you are going to fall for, and at what time. It could come at the worst possible time, or the best possible time. Love is something that shouldn't be taken for granted, because you may not feel it again. P.S. Sorry this is late

No problem, Myer.
DeleteI have concluded that from my interviews that people believe true love is difficult of find, but it is definitely out there. Also, it won't be a perfect situation, there will be times were it is hard. Lastly, it takes a commitment to find and maintain a loving relationship

It's okay!
DeleteWhat I learned about true love after interviewing a few poeple, is that it is based on an attraction to another person. I interviewed three people and everyone, whether it was an adult, or a kid said that there was an attraction to one another involved. I also learned that the adults I interviewed gave a better description, and it seemed that they knew more about what they where talking about than the kids did. When I interviewed my history teacher Mr. Magano, he said that love is an intimate connection that two pople share. Also that it is based of off a mutual understanding of one anohter, and who they are. This response was much more informed about what love really is that the other two people that I interviewed.
ReplyDeleteAfter the interviews that I conducted I learned many new things about love. When I asked my mom the question "what things matter the most to you in a relationship". She did not answer the typical answer of trust and respect; she said that communication was the key. She told me that if you do not have communication in a relationship then it will not last for more than a week. When I asked my father "what was different about mom than any other girl?" He said that she was humble. He told me that even though he was from another country and had an accent she never made fun of him or made the comment like the others would. So overall I learned that if i want a relationship to last, I must be humble and communicate with my partner.
ReplyDeleteI have learned a lot so far from my three interviews on true love. its a very, emotionally strong feeling that almost overwhelms you in a good way. It just pops up on you, and you cant hide or keep it inside of you. Its an attraction, that may not always work out. In order for it to grow it needs support, time, and effort. True love can make you feel like your on the top of the world. Although,it must be handled carefully because it can be both strong, yet fragile. All in all, this is what I've learned so far on true love.
ReplyDeleteAfter reading my interviews I have learned a lot about true love. First, I have learned that it is hard for people to describe. One person said that it was an undescribable feeling and that you just know when you see true love or are part of true love. Friendship, faithfulness, commitment honesty, a deeper understanding of each other were words that were used to describe the 'elements' that create true love. People said that it takes commitment, respect and friendship to have a healthy relationship. It is when there is a deeper understanding of each other, putting each other first and the desire that without them you would be lost completely there is true love. Fianlly, everyone who I talked to believed in true love.
ReplyDeleteI have learned over time that love is an eternal part of a human's well being. Without love, we cannot live a healthy life. From interviewing my parents, they said that love is a unique, yet very common thing. Everyone falls in love. However, it is hard to fall in a love that will be constant and forever. That is what makes a love unique. From interviewing my friends, they said that love is full of trust and commitment. Without trust and commitment, you cannot have a devoted relationship to one another. It is practically impossible. Love is one of the most common necessities in life, and without it, we wouldn't be living the great life we are now.

In my interviews I learned (From my friends) that they think finding true love is hopeless, and some of my friends think it isn't worth it to go and look for it. One of my friends, who I know for a fact is in love with her boyfriend did give me a pretty... extensive interview. While my other friends found that love is hopeless, this friend actually said love is something accepting, that is rare, that you don't often get and you can't actually plan to fall in love or love anybody. She said that love isn't just a feeling, it's like a lifestyle. She went on to tell me that love isn't something you can control, just as feelings aren't.
ReplyDeleteBasically, my results were a bit scattered, but my friend that gave me the extensive interview was a bit of an outlier, I don't know what to make of my results as a whole.

I have acutally learned a lot from the interviews about true love. I learned that there is honestly hope for all of us in the world. I also learned that many people think that there is truly someone out there for everyone. I also learned that love is an emotional rollercoaster, but if you truly love someone, you will ride the rollercoaster with them and all that matters is that you're together. Another person that I interviewed said that true love is growing old together and loving each other for who the person really is. Also, you accept people's flaws. These interviews have really opened my eyes to how powerful love can be.
ReplyDeleteBy conducting the interviews, I had learned a lot about true love and also a lot about the people I interviewed.I had interviewed my mom, my sister (who is 19), and my best friend (who is 14). All three had the same basic idea of true love. They defined it as finding someone that you care for and both of you putting their needs in front of your own. True love is also when you respect and trust the other unconditionally. My mom and my sister both believed in love at first sight, but my best friend didn't. She says you have to know someone to know they're for you. I was surprised at their responses on love at first sight because I expected the youngest person I interviewed to believe in it and not the others. Typically young kids get their ideas about love from movies and books. This gives them high expectations for their love lives. I think this is the biggest problem with this generation. The don't realize that if you really love someone, you would care for them and pick each other up, and it must be unconditional.

From my interviews I found that people do believe in true love and that people believe everyone has a true match. One thing I seemed to find was people were unsure how to describe what true love is. Both of my parents were unsure on the topic of true love in teenagers. One said, after hesitation, that true love in teenagers can exist although it only lies in relationships that last a long time. My parents will have been married for 20 years come May and I believe that they are an example of true love. My mom also agreed with me in saying that although she believes her parents and my dad’s parents have the best love stories of them all. This being because they have lasted for much longer. My parents hope that their love story ends up being great also. They know that true love lasts forever and you never lose the feeling of when you first saw the person you love, that's when you know your love is not only real but also true.
ReplyDeleteAfter interviewing my family members and friends about "True Love" I have learned a few things. The first thing is that most of the kids I interviewed said like hugs and kisses were "True love" but the adults said other things. What I mean by that is the kids said less meaningful things and the adults said more meaningful things. I think it is because they have more experiences in love than the little kids. They have grown up and experienced more in their lives and said things that were more true.
ReplyDeleteAfter conducting my interviews, I have learned several new things about 'true' love. First, I have learned that true love comes more pure with age and experience. When interviewing my mom, I asked her if she felt that teenagers could be in love. She answered that she does not believe so because teens can be stupid and will just think they are in love. When she was a teenager, she always thought she was in love. However, she learned from experience that being in a relationship doesn't necessarily mean that you are in love with this person. It doesn't mean that they are your true love just because you have mutual feelings for them. However, several of my friends feel that you can be in love as a teenager. They answered the same question that teenagers have the same symptoms of love as adults do. They expanded further that teenagers think about the person they love all day, just as adults would. However, I side with my mom that teens may just feel that they are in love in the moment of being in a relationship. Teens could just feel they are in love, but there are so many people in the world. The odds that you meet your true love as a teenager are very unlikely.
ReplyDeleteFrom my interviews, I have learned that many different people have different feeling and opinions on love. For definition of love most people. My sister told me to get out of her room, my Mom and Dad said it had to do with emotions, and a few of my friends answered in different ways. I also asked my friends ways to express love and most said kind words and hugs, kisses ect. In the few people I interviewed, however, most had to do with a similar thing, but they were also a bit different.
ReplyDeleteFrom the interviews that I conducted, I found that “true love” is an increasingly rare phenomenon in our world today. In fact, of the people I interviewed, only one believed that it still exists today. Many people stated that love was also clouded or brought down by personal pride, and an increasing separation on the levels of understanding between people in the world today. The high number of divorces also seemed to play a role in the opinions of those interviewed regarding the state of love today and “true love” in general. Most of those interviewed agreed that love faces many barriers as it grows in a relationship or begins to decay, most of which involved personal emotions and character traits. The overall consensus was not in favor of true love, though it seems as if there may still be some hope for true love today.
ReplyDeleteFrom my interviews about love I learned many ideas that people had about it and it definitely shifted my opinion in some ways. The people I interviewed were two of my classmates as well as my father. They all had very similar opinions of love, being putting the other in front of you whether it is your parents, siblings, dog, or other. No one that I interviewed in fact believed in love at first sight. They all believed that “love at first sight” are not actual love because you cannot tell if you actually like the person, but instead you are judging them purely on their looks. Although many may believe that loves can come instantly it takes time to build up to the state of true love where you put the other before yourself.
ReplyDeleteAfter interviewing my parents and a few others, I learned some things about love, and true love. First off, a person's opinion about what love is, is often similar to their significant other. For example, I interviewed my mom and dad separately. My mom thought love was about trust and reliability, while also enjoying spending time with the person you love. My dad used nearly the same words, describing love as having sort of a best friend that's always there for you. Some friends I interviewed said that true love is impossible, and others weren't rally sure. I think it's something that you can only find out yourself.
ReplyDeleteI learned a number of things about love. One major piece of knowledge I gained was love comes with age. When I interviewed my math teacher she had A LOT to say. She had been through a lot of relationships. Each failed one she walked away with a lesson. However, when I interviewed two girls my age they did not really know what to say. The questions made them feel awkward. One of them even refused to answer like half the questions.
ReplyDeleteFurthermore, I learned love is never perfect. A successful relationship is one where flaws are embraced. The I interviewed said you can not change a person. If a person truly isn't what you want you have to move on.

While interviewing multiple people on love, I learned a few different things about this topic.When I asked about love at first sight, the general consensus was that no, this really couldn't happen. You wouldn't know if you loved somebody until you actually got to know them and who they actually are. You can't know this about someone just by looking at them. I also learned that it really doesn't matter how young you are before you fall in love. Although most of the time people really aren't, there are some occasions when this is actually true. You shouldn't just think all kids under a certain age can't fall in love, for sometimes it is true. love. Joshua Tyler
ReplyDeleteI have found true love is different through the eyes of different people. When i asked my parents if they have found true love they both described basically the same reasons why. When i asked my sister the same question she also said yes. She said her true love was Justin Bieber even though she has never met him before. This is why I think love is viewed more seriosly as an adult rather than a kid.
ReplyDeleteThroughout my interviews, I have found many interestiong thoughts and opionions about what love is. I had three questions for every person. The first one was, what is love in your opinion? My responses were, love is when you had very deep feelings for a person, love is when you really really like someone, but sometimes people think they are in love but they aren't, and love is when you meet the perfect match. The second answer really surprised me. Although it is true, my friend really wanted to emphasize that some people believe that they are in love, when they really are not. I thought about this and I also believe that this is true. My next question was, do you believe in love at first sight? My responses were, yes I do, sometimes, and no. I was surprised to see that all of the answers were different. I guess that everyone has a different opion on love at first sight. If I had to answer that I would say no, because I feel like you should know the person before you fall in love with them. Finaly, my last question was, Do you think people can be in love forever? My responses were, yes, but only if they make it work, yes, if their perfect for eachother, and yes, but only if they truly are in love. I learned that if you want to stay in love forever, you have to make it work and you have to be perfect for eachother. I really agree with what everyone said in their interviews; they all had great points.
ReplyDeleteI learned a lot of things through my interview about true love. All of the people I interviewed had a different answer for what true love is. Although they answered that love takes loyalty and trust in the other. My dad said something that was very interesting to me, he said “It’s very easy to fall in love; it’s a choice to stay in love.” People fall in love all the time but its people choice to keep those feelings. I also learned that love is never giving up on somebody and accepting them for everything they are and everything they are not. That love takes compromise and wanting to make things work. That you can never be too old to fall in love and even teenagers can fall in love too even though they are still young. There interviews have opened my mind much more on this topic and I learned a lot.
ReplyDeleteIn my interviews, I have learned a few things.I learned that true love is a thing that some people believe in. Some people don't believe in true love. I believe in true love and I think that most people will find if they try to look. True love is different for many people. I do not think that teenagers will find true love, but as we get older, we will. P.S. sorry this is late.
ReplyDeleteI have learned a few things about true love from the interviews I did. Many of the people I interviewed had very similar views on true love and said almost the same thing to every question. When I asked what true love feels like, the people I interviewed said it felt happy and joyful. From interviewing kids my age, it has opened my eyes to what true love actually is.
ReplyDeleteAfter interviewing my friends and family I learned true love is not something you can force, it just happens when you meet that special someone. The two people I interviewed that are my age felt that true love is something special and important that occurs in your life and that to have true love, the two people must truly care about one another and be committed to be with one another. However my grandma who got divorced with my mother's father before I was born and said that she has not found true love said that when you have true love to someone you should not forget about the other important people in your life. This helped me learn that although true love is very important and is a very positive thing, you can not let it take over your life and make you forget about everything else and everyone else that is important in life.
ReplyDeleteMatthew Albanese
ReplyDeleteIn my interviews, I have learned that true love always conquers all. It can't be forced, and if it is true love it will work no matter what happens. Although, for it to work both sides have to be committed. True love is something that will last forever and will happen with a significant other. I've also learned that people should learn to respect one another more, and tell each other that they love each other more often in relationships. We don't tell the people we care about that we actually care for them. Sometimes it can make a huge difference just by saying those 3 words. Also, my family also thought that a relationship won't work if there is a huge difference in the ages of the male and the female. For instance, the male is 60 and the female is 30. As we get older, our chances of finding true love increase, because you understand it more. I've learned a lot about true love and people's opinions on it in my interviews.
Sorry this is late.

ReplyDeleteMy mom thinks true love is thinking of someone else before yourself. Accepting somebody else despite their their faults is another aspect of true love. My sister thinks true love is about liking someone the way they are and sharing respect and trust. My dad thinks true love is not forced. He thinks its more about caring the other person, than just buying them gifts. He also thinks that true love means you have to love the whole person; not just their looks
Maya LaFleur
ReplyDeleteAfter conducting multiple interviews about the topic of love, I have learned many things. One thing I have learned about love is that it isnt easy for everyone. One person I had interviewed said that he and his ex-girlfriend had dated for over two years but then they suddenly lost feelings for eachother and it was so bittersweet. This tells me that love has many different meanings. You can love someone without having to be dating them. You love your friends, family and boyfriend/girlfriends. I also learned that love can be complicated. Sometimes it wont always work in your favor but if you truly love someone and that someone loves you back things will work out.
From my interviews about true love I have learned that in order for love to be true, both people must be dedicated to each other and no boundaries can prevent those people from loving or seeing each other. True love is when the person you love is all you need in the world and he or she makes you happy. If two people are truly in love they won't give up on each other and won't feel pressured to cheat. Finally,true love is love that is real and when you trust the person and feel really comfortable around them.
