Cliché? Yeah, sort of, but I do think it holds that the muddy concept of ‘love’ cannot be confined to the claustrophobic space of initial meeting, and this casts heavy doubts over the idea of love at first sight. Therein lies the crux of my contention: love is not the gunshot signaling that the race has begun, but nor is it the feeling of crossing the finishing line. I was close friends with my girlfriend for seven years before ‘asking her out,’ and I truly think that this friendship has served as an excellent point of reference over the last two years.

I suppose I am, to an extent, a victim of the ‘mere-exposure effect,’ in which a preference for someone or something comes with familiarity.

You will always find times you feel the most important about. Love means accepting a person with all their failures, stupidities, and their imperfection. For example, love means there is no more busy world, it’s always about priorities. It’s about how patient and kind you are, it does not include boasting, it is not how arrogant and rude you are. In my opinion, love is not how much you say ‘I love you’ but how much you can prove it’s true. Everyone needs it in some way or another, and therefore, everyone has their own definition to what ‘love’ means to them. However, with over 7 billion people on this planet, not everyone will have the same definition. Love is a very diverse term. That’s probably the general view of loving someone unconditionally that you would do everything and anything to be together. The movie perfectly portrays how two people who were not allowed to be together would do everything in their willpower to love each other till they take their last breath. Moulin Rouge – a movie all about love with their well-known quote, “the greatest thing you’ll ever learn is just to love and be loved in return”.
