  • No. Ask a Soldier.
  • I think so. I think it is more about how much u can put up with.
  • Perhaps in my youth I believed such an adage...though the older you get, the more aware you become that there is so much more to it that cannot be summed up in such a statement...
  • I think that is very naive.
  • There are MORE obstacles...hate has the same effect too...
  • That depends. If you truly and genuinely love and care for somneone and the feelings are mutual then yes with the exception of them being underage or already being in a relationship with someone else I would let nothing stand in my way of being with them.
  • Yes...only one.......... If they don't love you!
  • That is true only if you love each other. If you love them, but they don't love you--it would be stalkerish to believe there are no obstacles that would keep you apart.
  • Correct nothing can stop you.
  • Yes i do.:-)+
  • No I don't.
  • I used to, but I've since learned the hard way that no matter how one feels about the other, it must be reciprocal to defeat all obstacles. Otherwise, there will be much pain and anguish in the end.
  • No. Many couples believe in their heart of hearts that if there's enough love between them, all problems will be conquered. But this wishful thinking often leads to heartbreak. Experience shows that you can love someone deeply - and still opt to divorce or separate from your S/O. Yes, being in love helps. Yet the foundation of a strong relationshipe is created by something deeper still: sharing and pursuing mutual life goals. I have met couples who can't agree on important - even basic - goals. For example, the wife wants a child and the husband doesn't. What are the chances that this couple will stay together if both are strongly committed to their positions? The many reasons why they got married are still there. They both have many beautiful and endearing virtues. Both are sensitive, kind, intellectual, humorous, happy and ambitious. Still they might divorce due to lack of a common life goal - in this case, having children. Unfulfilled life goals destroy even the strongest relationships. Fulfilling one's personal sense of meaning often supersedes love. Without a shared life direction, divorce can be just around the corner.
  • I wish!!!!!!!!
  • I think so. There should be no reason a couple should find something to make them doubt their relationship. Yeah, times get hard but you need to work through everything. :D
  • Yes, it's worked for me through many obstacles!
  • NO...that is a fairy-tale. All couples have faults, differences of opinions, likes and dislikes, deep wounds, and secrets. The key is to develop their relationship around these imperfections and learn to trust each other along the way. How much time you invest and whhat you make out of it is how it will unfold. If you don't build a good bond it will unravel and fall apart.
  • Well, I gave up a well-paid job in a major British bank and moved 5,000 miles to be with my lady love, so that clearly wasn't enough of an obstacle. Seriously, love is key, but the real secret is choosing the right partner first, of course, and one of the most vital things I feel you should agree on are your core values and beliefs.
  • If you love one another enough you will do everything to overcome any obstacles.
  • there will always be obstacles, U can only wait and hope to eventually one day over come those obstacles, and finally be happy or not over come those obstacles and be miserable the rest of your Life.
  • No, there could always be other things that take priorities or natural disasters, problems with laws or morals, age, medical issues, etc...
  • We are fighting all our lives for one thing or another,a relationship is no different,love is something that should be wonderful and harmonic,but it can be the most heartaching experience,obstacles will always be their we just need to see our priorities and to know which ones to fight
  • No, I don't believe that. There could definitely be obstacles that would keep two people apart, no matter how deeply in love they are with each other. The real question is not whether these obstacles exist or whether the two are kept apart, but how they deal with it. If two people truly love each other, they will commit to finding a way to endure the obstacles of time, distance, or whatever else is interfering. Perhaps there's a solution, perhaps not... but true love, in my opinion, means never giving up on the commitment, no matter what.
  • i would do anything to keep the love of my life close to me.
  • There are obstacles, it's going over them that show you can't be kept apart.
  • I used to when I was younger. life gets more complicated as you get older and things that didn't mean as much or that you had no concept of actually ever meaning anything in the future, begin to stick, and hurt and you sometimes end up baring a weight not worth the expenditure. Love is love... Sometimes it really is best for one or both parties to have the wisdom to know when it is better to love them from afar. You can do that you know... You don't have to be with someone to love them.
  • yes. things happen, people change, but love is always love.
  • Nope, Thats only in movies..
  • if you truely love someone theres nothing that can keep you apart. the elements, money, others, nothing stands in the way.
  • no!!! watch casablance sometime - on the earth lots of obstacles exist that can keep us apart from our beloved... sure, part of them might live on in our hearts.
  • I think that for true love there are very big obstacles. Obstacle = Challenge = you might loose the challenge. It is not true that love always prevails. Sometimes you loose the challenge, let go of your love, and wonder during the rest of your (dull) life what would have been if you had more courage... This especially happens if you get so contempt in your love that you forget that there is a harsh world out there waiting around the corner, and start assuming that all good things happen by themselves. That is not true... and so sad when it happens. You just have to keep moving and assume the life that fear chose for you.
  • Would you talk to my now ex(as of today)? I thought we really loved each other. We live 104 miles apart. have been dating for almost 3 years. i guess it was a one sided love.
  • just found out there are obstacles that can keep you apart..called border crosssings.
  • No it has to be a two-sided love first and that's sometimes hard to figure out.
  • Yes, and I do believe that. Though I am 3,000 miles from my baby girl, I am still with her, or at least Someone is.
  • No, it's not love alone that makes a relationship work.
  • Sort of... I believe that if it's true love, the flame never dies regardless of time.
  • I believe that if you are soul mates there is nothing that can keep you apart!!! You can love someone and they can feel completely different... it has to be two sided!!!
  • NOOOOOOOOOOO
  • when you love someone,that's when there will be a lot of obstacle.From the other person side,unknowingly and knowingly sometimes.Obstacles are to strengthen relationship,but unfortunately it breaks a lot of relationship
  • Nope, it takes more than love.
  • I dont know, still trying to figure it out. I am in love with my bf and he with me, but what do you do when most of the obstacles are because of his behavior? He hasnt found a secure job since we have been together(2+ years), isnt very responsible, financially insecure, spends too much money on drinks at restaurants/bars, etc. I on the other hand can support myself, and am financially responsible, etc. I do not want to live paycheck to paycheck the rest of my life and if I stay with him and marry him, that will probably be what happens. We have a very strong connection and have from the beginning, but I have continued being involved with him, hoping I would see a change in him, especially if he finally got his work situation under control, but as of yet he hasnt. So I wonder, with all these obstacles, do I stay or go? Can love conquer all these obstacles? It's tuff, let me tell you. My heart tells me one thing, my head has been trying to tell me another! ????
  • yes!!!!!!!
  • Yes. Theres nothing stronger then true love.
  • no i dont believe that at all. There can always be obstables that are so strong and hard to get over that it just might keep you apart no matter how much you love each other.
  • Love is an obstacle.
  • Not for a second.
