I do agree (in today's age) most relationships start off heavily transactional. But to say that true love cannot be achieved is untrue. It's a line you cross beyond a certain point in time
I would class 'True Love' as when you choose to be with somebody regardless of any transactional benefit. For example, if you lose your limbs in the war and your wife stays with you. Or your wife unfortunatley develops Alzheimers and cannot recall anything, yet you choose to look after her 24/7. That's a situation that would involve true love
Now obviously, majority of people will be unlikely to be in a position to prove that your love is true. But most couples grow to possess it.
Part of it also is dependent on the character/maturity of the individuals, which is why it comes through with age.
What is your idea of "True Love", and do you think it's achievable?
