Does love between a man and a woman exist ?

im a 30 something woman, who has been in a marriage that hasn't seen much love , or maybe the love that i saw with previous relationships, i havent even felt a shred of it in this one. I have fallen in love once but it was at 22, and even then it was a short relationship(the love didn't fall out but it was long distance and not realistic). Being young you have hopes and dreams that this kind of mutual feeling exists; but now more than anytime in my life, i realize there is no hope and i doubt there are men who even want to love, or feel loved or know how to love; its all a Jane Austin dream. or is there hope? women are beings who crave this sort of feeling and to realize its just an illusion breaks something in you,that becomes hard to mend.

That's a good question. I wonder myself sometimes. but in reverse of what you are wondering I wonder if woman feel love. But the realistic answere is YES both woman and men want and want to feel loved. I see it all the time, I just get frustrated because I want it for myself. If you look at people and couples around you you'll see a lot of ugly bs but you'll also see people are are clearly in love.

Reply:Yeah love does exist, it is just rare and hard to make work. People let things like money and low self esteem and no trust get in the way of love. And after years of lies and distrust and hiding, love turns to bitter hate.
