Love attitudes

understood before hand. Allow enough breathing space: Understand that enough liberty is to be available to each partner; in spite of the commitments. It is seen that the three major factors for the failure of relationships are:
Too much possessiveness, so as to cut out the freedom in each other's life.
Misunderstanding and misconception due to suspicion and insufficient interaction.
Unequal sense of responsibility or intensity of reciprocation. While one partner makes the sacrifices, the other makes no, or minimal, attempt to adjust.
The same is true of True Love as well.
The tests of one love cutting the path of other: The biggest failure point is the weakest link. When one love challenges the other, this becomes the toughest time to make decisions. For instance, if parents' love were to challenge your partner's love, or vice versa - what would you do? The right attitude would be to take this as a test of love and work on it as a team.
Love is a game of emotions: Know the fact that in war and love, it is the internal factors that cause more damage than the external factors. The thoughts, the emotions, and the memories are bigger factors to be dealt with; than the world getting together to separate the partners.
Clear misconceptions of approaching the partner wrongly: True Love depends on mutual trust and mutual respect, rather than sensuality and the chemistry between the two bodies. True Love is way above carnal or material lust.
Be normal, not pretentious: Seduction and flirting are ways to impress. And the bond so developed is weak. The day the mask falls off, the world around you will collapse. The progress to True Love, on the other hand, must be unpretentious.
A person is not simple to understand: The understanding that every person is complex person due to his past experiences. To fall in True Love, each partner has to accept, and adjust to, the other's characteristics. A good exercise is to attempt to describe your partner in written words, and then you'll know how complex he is! Also, each person has a story, so do you. Know each other before you reach the stage of making commitments.
Let the emotions pave the path: Love is not by measuring, but by letting the emotions do some guiding. And when you feel it, it is unwise to hide it.
Count your real assets: Understand that in this world of deception and pretentiousness, your assets (like beauty or wealth) are working both in your favor and against you. A good test of love is to, sometime, try a situation where you are left with your qualities alone (without the assets), and look at the partner's response.
Know the foundation on which your love is built: Have the attitude to look for stronger bonding factors between the partners. Qualities of the partner are often the best bet to keep the relationship running; rest all change. For instance, if love is based on admiration, then keeping your partner interested will be stressful.
Have a hold on yourself: Strong self restraint so as not to go to the next person who appears appealing. This will help multifold in being trustworthy, keeping current relationship, and being able to use discretion.
Wait for the right one: This is one of the most difficult thing to do. Indulge, and your chances of proving to the right one will be weaker! It is not sufficient to have the hope of finding the right one; have faith (i.e., blind hope) in that he/she is somewhere; only that he may not be looking.
Falling in love 'head over heals' is often not the right path to achieve True Love: When you do not buy a car without testing, when you do not purchase a house without research; how can you trust your life in an unknown partner's hands? Being blind in love can give you one of the worst times of your life, when it doesn't materialize. Also, looks deceive, so don't be caught in this trap expecting True Love. Give your life to the most deserving person!
Anything may happen: Love to a larger extent dictates what happens with you and your partner, rather than you deciding your next move. Have your mind ready for eventualities, and have the 'fight back' spirit as a team, against on-coming hurdles.
