What Is Real Love? Greg Baer, MD

Love is not meant to be conditional or wavering… In this powerful video, Relationship Expert Greg Baer explains the truth behind what “Real Love” really is, and how we can find and share Real Love in our own lives.

If you want to know what we as human beings want most, it’s not tough to figure it out… Just look what we talk about most, what we read most, what we watch most.

So, if we review all the books ever written, the movies produced, the magazines printed, all the conversations held. What topic we find them running through all more than any other? Love.

Love is that feeling of being connected to and cared for by others people.  There is nothing quite like being told: “I Love you.”

But not just any kind of love will do. Let me illustrate:

What if some say to you “I love you” and few minutes later comes in the room and gets upset about something you did? Now how loved you feel? It’s gone isn’t it?

That’s because the kind of love the person express to you is not love. It’s not the kind of love the fills up and creates happiness in our life’s.

The only kind of love that does that is what I call real love.

It’s real love when I care about your happiness without wanting anything from you in return.

It’s real love when you care about my happiness without wanting anything from me in return.

It’s not real love when you like me because I do what you want… that’s worthless. It’s real love when I’m stupid, inconvenient  and don’t do what you want and you don’t feel disappointed or irritated at me.  When we have enough of that kind of Real Love, the world literally becomes a different place.

With enough real love we feel happy and emotionally and spiritually happy and complete. The little inconveniences around us which happens every day become almost meaningless. Life is a joy.

In what way can learn to give yourself a healthy dose of Real Love?

    I get a little irritated at my boyfriend when he does something I don't like but it doesn't last. It's a problem, I think, that I can't seem to keep grudges unless they are really big with him. We can be fighting on the phone and as soon as I see him, it all fades away. Or when we are fighting in person, all I want is to make-up and give him a hug….is that “Real Love”?

      Dani, that's a great question… Have you read the Real Love book? It's an amazing read, and very insightful on the different ways we misunderstand love – both for ourselves and others. :)
