True love is magical. True love is mystical?Right? Well, kind of. But it’s more than that, as anyone in a relationship can tell you. Read on to find ten things you need to know about true love.

　　1. True love is not demanding

　　真愛(ài)不是索取

　　Your partner should never ask you to change if you’re truly loved. And if you truly love your partner, you shouldn’t expect him to change. You got into a relationship because you liked each other, and you grew to love each other as you are. Why would you need to change someone you love so deeply? Accept them as they are, and you’ll get that consideration in return.

　　如果真的愛(ài)你，他絕對(duì)不會(huì)要求你去改變。如果你真的愛(ài)他，也不應(yīng)該希望他去改變。你們能在一起是因?yàn)榛ハ嘞矚g，正因?yàn)槟闶悄?，雙方才會(huì)愛(ài)上。為什么要改變你深愛(ài)的人呢?接受他們，同樣的，他們也不會(huì)再去要求你改變。

　　2. True love allows you to be yourself

　　真愛(ài)就是做你自己

　　Being yourself in front of your partner can seem scary at first. Waking up without any makeup on, and your hair a mess? What about him seeing you when you’re sick?runny nose, bloodshot eyes and all. It’s something you want to avoid as long as you can. But you shouldn’t feel that way. When you’re in love, even the worst illness is a beautiful experience because it’s worth it. Your partner helping you through a messy episode or kissing you with morning breath is a major step towards your future, and it shows how much he truly loves you

　　剛開(kāi)始在另一半面前做自己好像有點(diǎn)恐怖。頭發(fā)亂糟糟沒(méi)有化妝就起床?他要是看到你感冒的紅鼻子，充滿血絲的眼睛會(huì)有何感想?這些都是你想盡可能避免的情況。但其實(shí)不能那樣想。在一起時(shí)，即使生病也是美好的體驗(yàn)，絕對(duì)值得。他幫你度過(guò)亂糟糟的清晨，或是牙也不刷就吻你，本身就是好的預(yù)兆，也能表現(xiàn)出他到底有多愛(ài)你。

　　3. Self love is the best way to find true love

　　想愛(ài)人，先愛(ài)自己

　　It sounds like a cliche, something your mom and girlfriends told you every time you were crying over a broken heart, but it’s true?you must love yourself before you can love anyone else. Be comfortable with yourself, even when you’re having a bad day. Know who you really are, deep down inside, and know what you want to do with your life. Being in love with yourself and having your life on track are not only incredibly self-satisfying, they’re really attractive qualities to a partner.

　　這聽(tīng)起來(lái)有點(diǎn)老生常談，每次分手媽媽或閨蜜們都會(huì)這么告訴你，但這的確是真的-你必須先愛(ài)別人才能知道愛(ài)自己。讓自己快樂(lè)開(kāi)心，哪怕今天過(guò)得很遭。知道自己的真實(shí)面目，發(fā)掘內(nèi)心，看看你到底想干些什么。愛(ài)上自己，快樂(lè)的生活，這不僅會(huì)讓你十分幸福，還能真的吸引到另一半的關(guān)注哦。

　　4. True love is not about finding yourself in another

　　真愛(ài)不是迷失自己

　　Don’t fall in love, or think you’re in love, just because you want to find yourself. Your identity is not to be someone’s other half?it’s to be yourself! Don’t get so swept up in your partner that you become them. You don’t need to be the number one fan of their favorite band or read all the books they read. Keep your interests and hobbies and you’ll be more interesting to, and interested in, your partner.

　　不要因?yàn)橄胝伊硪粋€(gè)自己就陷入，或認(rèn)為自己陷入愛(ài)河。你不是要做別人的另一半--而是要做你自己。不要一味迎合另一半把自己變得像他們那般。你不要是他們最愛(ài)樂(lè)隊(duì)的頭號(hào)粉絲，也不需要去讀他們讀過(guò)的所有書(shū)籍。保持自己的興趣愛(ài)好，你會(huì)對(duì)另一半更有興趣，自身也會(huì)更有吸引力。

　　5. True love comes naturally

　　真愛(ài)都是自然而然來(lái)的

　　Do you have doubts about your partner? Are you not sure they’re right for you? If you’re asking yourself too many questions about your partner, your relationship, and your future together, then you’re probably not in love. When you’re truly in love, you don’t question anything. It feels natural to be with your partner, and you know you can work through anything to achieve that future you’re dreaming of.

　　你對(duì)另一半有疑問(wèn)么?是不是不確定到底他們是不是那個(gè)對(duì)的人?如果你總是對(duì)另一半，這段關(guān)系或者你們的未來(lái)有這些疑問(wèn)，那么有可能你不愛(ài)他。真正愛(ài)的時(shí)候，你不會(huì)懷疑任何事情。好像跟他在一起是如此自然，你知道和他在一起能迎來(lái)一直夢(mèng)想的那個(gè)未來(lái)。
