True love may be hard to define, but the signs
to read true love can be clearly seen in every perfect loving relationship. If you’re in a
relationship and want to know if you’re experiencing the purest form of love, use these
12 signs of true love to find out for yourself.
#1 Give and take in love. You give to the relationship wholeheartedly, without any desire or expectations of getting something back in return from your partner to justify your actions.
#2 Pure happiness . Just watching this special person smile or laugh out loud fills you with intense happiness, even if you’re suffering or having a hard day.
#3 Pain and anger. You get terribly hurt when your lover upsets you, but
their actions never anger you. You may get annoyed or frustrated now and then momentarily, but you just can’t stay mad at them for long because staying mad or giving
them the silent treatment hurts you more.
#4 Sacrifices. You make sacrifices for their happiness or wellbeing, even if they may
never realize it.
#5 The right effort. You go to great lengths and make an effort to improve the
relationship, and play a conscious part in trying to please your partner and make them
feel loved and special.
#6 You can’t ever hurt them. When you’re truly in love with someone, you can’t even
imagine hurting them, emotionally or physically. Payback is a strong human instinct, but
true love makes you completely selfless. [Read: 15 subtle and yet shocking signs of a

#7 You keep your promises. When you make a promise to them, you stick to your word
even if this person will never find out if you broke their promise. When you experience
true love, your moral conscience becomes very strong when it comes to this one special
person.
#8 We. In a perfect relationship , it’s good to have your own space to grow as
individuals. But at the same time, if you truly love your partner, you’d see them as a part
of your life. When you think of your future, you can’t help but see them by your side.

#9 You share their burden. And you do that even if you don’t really have to. You can’t
bear to see this special someone suffering. If they’re dealing with some issue, you’re
always willing to offer them a helping hand even when you have your own difficulties to
look into.
#10 Pride and jealousy. You beam with pride when they achieve something, even if it’s
the same thing you failed at. You may get jealous of a friend who outdid you, but when
you love someone, jealousy never enters the picture.
#11 Suffering. You’d be willing to suffer, just to see them happy.
#12 Their perspective. Everything you do, you keep your lover in mind and think from
their perspective, be it about planning a surprise party or hanging out with your own
friends after work.
You don’t ever want to hurt your lover, so you always think from their point of view
before making any decision that involves them in any way. Are you experiencing true
love? If you’re in a relationship and aren’t experiencing these true love signs, don’t fret.
Perhaps, your relationship hasn’t reached the state of emotional maturity that surpasses
physical attraction or the stage of infatuation. Take your time and test the waters.
You can’t fall in love with someone by forcing yourself into the relationship. If it’s not
working out, try to understand each other better. And if nothing you do can bring
happiness back into love, perhaps both of you would be better off dating other people.
But at the same time, if both of you are already happy in the relationship, don’t try to
change anything about it. Sometimes, selfless and unconditional love takes time to
materialize. Remember, you can’t push yourself into the next stage in love unless both
of you are ready for it. As long as your lover and you are happy and understand each
other, you’re already experiencing the perfect kind of love! Use these 12 signs of true
love to understand what true selfless love really means. And even if you’re not there yet,
don’t worry about it. It’s only a matter of time before a happy romance goes the true love
way!
