What's the difference between love and true love

So what is the difference between a true love that loves you for you. Or love, that loves you for what you don’t do?

We all or most of us know someone that we love as a person and we know they would give a arm and a leg for us. You can call them at anytime of the night and they will listen to you and be there for you, you can break down somewhere far and they will come and get you no matter what time of the day or night, they will go out of their way just to help you.
And that same person most likely does things that you totally don’t agree with. You know that friend that cheats on their spouse and you know, that friend that is an escort on the side to make an extra buck, that friend that lies every now and then and you know about it, that person that is to lazy to do anything for themselves, that person that stays out at all times of the night, yes that person that done crooked someone but you still defend them and love them. You know why? It is because you love them for who they are and not for what they do. You hold true love for them.
You know within their heart they are good loving and caring, it’s just some of the things they do you don’t agree with.
But do you love them less because of that or do you look at them differently?
Or do you say well that’s just him but he is the most loving person you will meet.
Do you see them for who they are or for what they do.
Most likely you see them for who they are and not for what they do.
But now would you say the same thing if that person would be the person that is with you? Most likely not. Now you can say well that’s why he is not my man or my woman.
Yes that is why he or she might be or stay just a best friend, but are you sure that the person you with doesn’t have one of them attributes. Don’t we all have one of those attributes, and if you find out they do, are you able to stay just as objective with them as you can be with your best friend. Specially if you claim that the person you hold true love for is also your best friend or believe they should be.

"Love has no judgement, love is that never ending story of discovering we made love to be true. Without each other how can our love be true. Love makes us DO not dont. I do want love, our love to be true. Let me be true and let me be me...It is true why cant you see."

This is My Opinion, there is no such thing as true love, its just the amount of respect that you have developed for that person knowing you would not like to dissappoint them but who's perfect..as that respect began to change or if we loose that respect thats when we realise that it was not love, never "true love".
For what ever reason we like someone for we just have accept the fact that *respect* is what it is .
