On Love

[deleteduser]

A conversation ended the other day with -- "In this world there are two types of relationships your either the lover, or the loved" Applying this to my current relationship I find this to be true and many other people agree with this statement.

I take my relationship with my g/f of a year or so to be quite standard. It got me thinking then if the best relationships are lover, lover. Do any of you guys/gals feel that most relationships are this way what are you experiences with love and what really makes the best and lasting relationships. I'm getting to be older and marriage might start coming into the picture so I am asking further for what to look for when deciding on "the one."
