These are 15 core signs of true love
Living With The Truth
Most people have built their relationship on basis of lies thinking telling or admitting the truth will jeopardize their relationship. Yes but for a while. Lies can only hold it on for a short time and boom, ‘it will collect your eye‘. People who’re truly in love with each other always tells the truth even if it’s gonna hurt the other. The truth always reveals the real personality of an individual.
NB: If you find someone who’s truthful at all times, hold them and never let them go.
Always Sacrificing
You are in a true relationship if your partner gives up all he or she has just to make you feel good and moving. If someone gives up all his attention, possession and happiness for your own good just to keep the relationship between you in a healthy condition, that person deserves what he or she is getting now.
NB: If you find someone who sacrifices what they have at all times, hold them and never let them go.
Good With Timing
If you find yourself with a person who know what to do something when and how that’s the best person to be with. This is a person who doesn’t give excuses for what he’s supposed to do. They try every possible means to be on track with you all the time and make sure you’re always attended to when you need him or her.
NB: If you find someone good at his or her timing at all times, hold them and never let them go.
Afraid To Lose Someone
True love is embodied with fear to lose the person you love. By so doing, you tend to give out all you have; your attention, patience, resources, trust and confidence to that special person so you don’t lose them to someone. You put in all your heart into that person hoping to be loved till thy kingdom comes. When someone is afraid of losing you, don’t get it wrong, that’s the rarest love you have at your custody, hold it like an egg.
NB: If you find someone afraid to lose you, hold them and never let them go.

Understanding That Love Is Not About Money
Most relationships nowadays are centred on wealth and possessions; hence, it’s hard to last for years. True love tells you that, love isn’t all about money. Money will always be around but this type of love comes once in a lifetime. Nowadays, relationships work best with money. Without money, you are going nowhere. When you find yourself loving someone who doesn’t care about what you have or don’t have, keep that person close and never take him or her for granted.
NB: If you find someone who doesn’t love you for what you have to don’t have, hold them and never let them go.
Feeling Of Completeness
When you feel complete with the person you love, that’s all you need to smile. True love appears that you don’t need anyone else to make you happy but your partner. You feel that all that matters is your partner and nothing else. You have no room for envying someone. Yes, you feel your life is fulfilled most especially when you see that all your effort is appreciated.
NB: If you find someone who feels complete for having you, hold them and never let them go.

Distance Doesn’t Matter
No matter where you are, you stay truly committed to your partner no matter how long it seems to be. This means no length of distance can ever stop you from loving, trusting, believing and being loyal to him/her. Distance sometimes help to establish a unique fondness with the ones we love. Anytime you find yourself away for a week or a month, you begin to be anxious to get home just to see or spend some time with him or her. That’s when to know, you’re truly in love with the right person.
NB: If you find someone who loves you dearly no matter the distance, hold them and never let them go.
Having Utmost Trust & Hope
Being in a relationship doesn’t make you the perfect human. At all cost, you would go astray. You are human, you should understand that mistakes are part of humans and a norm. True love expects people to trust each other on all grounds. You do not have to doubt your partner because it’s only trust that can make the relationship work effectively. When someone trusts you, do not relent on that; try as much as possible to return the favour. Trust is the most important thing in all relationships. If there is no trust, there is no love. Rather choose to trust your partner until they decide to lose it. Give off all you can and surely, expect nothing in return. Amidst the worst, have hope in yourselves and mend the broken glasses.
NB: If you find someone who trusts you at all times, hold them and never let them go.
Easily Forgives Sincerely
The one who loves you easily forgo his or her pride just to make the relationship work. No one is a fool for being softhearted or forgiving; that’s compassion. He who is truly in love with you will always have the heart to forgive you for all your wrongs whether intentionally or not. This is because they find you imperfect and bound to make mistakes(vice versa). Let’s not see others as fools for being soft on our wrongdoings. Finding someone who truly forgives sincerely is very rare; if you find such a person, steadfast and make the relationship work at all cost.
NB: If you find someone who forgives sincerely at all times, hold them and never let them go.

Hardship Doesn’t Define Your Fate
Most people tend to lose hope when there is hardship in a relationship. It is quite unfortunate that most women are fond of this act just because, it is said that; it’s men’s duty to take care of the woman. Yes, it is but not all men will have money. Some have had wealth already reserved to them by their parents; others have had life so easy fortunately while others would have to carry the world to get a single cedi note(¢1). In most cases, impatience resulting from troubles and unavailability of money can shake your relationship. A relationship that finds hardship as part of living and does not make quick decisions or judgement, is true and just.
NB: If you find someone who doesn’t lay your fate on what you have, hold them and never let them go.
Mutual Respect a For Each Other
When in a relationship and there is mutual respect, that’s all you need. Here, both parties value and understand their differences and try to be better each day. The man respects the woman for who she is and where she comes from and vice versa. The man doesn’t feel bossy or the lord of the house but respect the woman’s opinion and privacy accordingly and vice versa. Both couple structures collaboration and teamwork as part of their vow. This will always tell you how lucky you are and how you should maintain the relationship. If this mutuality is available, both parties become happy and satisfied in the relationship.
NB: If you find someone who has mutual respect for you, hold them and never let them go.

Staying Amidst Quarrelsomeness/Trouble
No matter how tough the going seems, you always find a reason to come back to each other again. In this sense, no amount of pressure can separate you. No matter how mad you are at your partner, it doesn’t still feel reasonable enough to stay away. The angrier you become, the more you’d need that person to calm your down. You never stop caring, loving and admiring each other. In case you find it hard to detach yourself from your partner after a feud, just know that, y’all are meant to be together. Don’t follow your pride and lose the one that’s meant for you.
NB: If you find someone stays even when y’all are mad at each other, hold them and never let them go.
When You Can’t Stay A Day Without Communicating
Effective communication is the main key to every effective relationship. Without communication, the relationship looks just like a dead. You don’t know what’s happening around your partner. Are they fine or worried? You don’t know. Being in a relationship with someone who truly cares about your endeavours, your day and how you are doing is a blessing on its own. This is enough to tell you how lucky you’re to be in such a relationship. That’s is true love. People who get so busy with work or friends don’t care about how your day is going. But with true love, your partner sacrifices all the time he or she has just to check up on you. Not just calling but also reaching out via text messages.
NB: If you find someone calls or texts you at all times, hold them and never let them go.
Always Planning The Future Together
Finding people with this ability is rare, trust me. Most people are in a relationship for fun. They don’t have an idea about what they want to achieve from it some years later. A person who finds time to know who you want to be in future and tries to help your dream come true is the partner you need. When in true love, your partner does not only care about his or her dream but also helps you achieve yours. He or she remembers that you are a different person out the relationship therefore, you also deserve a different life from his or hers. Helping you achieve your dreams simply means, your partner doesn’t foresee your relationship to be short-term. He or she values and cherishes your company and wants to spend the rest of his or her life with you.
NB: If you find someone who plans the future with you, hold them and never let them go.

Considering Your Partner Second
Someone who’s in love with you truly will always do anything to put you second after his parents. A man who loves you should teach you to love and appreciate your parents and his parents before the two of you. A partner that loves and consider you before his or her parents, is not a person who can love you for a lifetime. Therefore a partner who will teach you to love and put your parents first is telling you how long he can love you. Don’t get it twisted. If you find a partner who puts you second after his parents, he or she is the best lover to fit in your heart.
NB: If you find someone who consider you after his or her parents, hold them and never let them go.
