With the presence of social media, couples can just easily curate their relationship online, showing only the picture-perfect moments. We all know that every relationship has flaws beyond the lens of the camera.

An artist based in Los Angeles, California, named Amanda Oleander (instagram.com/amandaoleander), portrays how true love looks like through her spectacular artwork. 

Here at Viral Strange, we collected 25 photos of her amazing works:

1.True love means accepting everything about your partner.

Loving someone entails accepting everything about them, even the unwanted parts like the body hairs and all that. It does not make your partner any less if she has that. We have to normalize that instead.

2. Smelling her hair.

Love is never perfect, but what is important is that you celebrate simple joys. It is with appreciating the simple things that make you appreciate each other even more. It is the genuine connection you share that makes you unbreakable.

Always be ready to make sacrifices for one another. It will never be a perfect journey for both of you, but it will be smooth-sailing since you have one another.

  1. dam I
    don’t have any of that iam just stuck taking care of my kids with a women i don’t love but i respect her .
    so there are guys that take responsibility my dumb ass. I love my daughter even if it means my own happiness 4 years with out sex and going on five i have not gotten a warm embrace

  2. Been to all of these portrait , felt so love, blessed , cared and was indeed joyful marriage. But sadly my loving husband died after 12 years. Thirteen yrs has passed and it seem only yesterday. I really miss all those moments. I thank God because He had given the chance to have that love and care from my late husband.

  3. Thank you for sharing this beautiful message! I was in floods of tears of happiness all the way through from beginning to end! I will keep this and reflect on it often as I am now reassured that my new love is the one true love who has all these qualities I feel Blessed and forever grateful for this wonderful new person in my life , I can’t thank Godcenough for sending him to me and sending me this your message to cement this for me!

  4. Partner’s being upset because you don’t see their hidden signs that they need to talk.

    Partner deciding everything

    Partner not interested in spending alone time with you

    Cheating

    Lying

    Always being on their phone

    (Different partners)

    I’ve completely lost faith in love.

  5. I wish I find a girl with the same who has same passion and love for me as I will have for her as vice versa, good luck to everyone for there future life and partners 🤞❤️

  6. Everyone of these pictures reminds me of my wife and I. We practice each one everyday and it works. We don’t fight or argue. If we have differences we talk them through. Wish I had met her sooner in life. I would have less white in my hair, what hair I have left. I would of had less heart ache.

  7. I love this. I hope I get it .I feel a strong connection with someone and a love and respect even though we don’t know each other well. When God knows it’s right he will approach me. He knows who I am and where to find me. I know we can experience compatible, unconditional love forever ❤

    • Hey Debbie, I am told by my health ‘consultant’ that when I say things like you have said it is just the PTSD talking and just that recognition makes me feel supported and Im suddenly prepared to be less unfair. People, including women and men alike are all individuals as the Monty Python joke goes, and yes there’s too much boozing and smoking and drug use and gambling and other seemingly unnecessary things rather than simply focusing on the sublime generosity of loving someone else, of growing together without losing ourselves with all the risk of being left without someone eventually that this entails, unless we continue to be generous and take the risk the investment does not even have a chance to pay off. You sound like you still have your sensitivity which is perfect ground for new love to grow in, just avoid putting out the weed killer as it also kills off the good growth coming your way, not to put too much into an analogy. We, the organism like all organisms on earth need optimum input for optimum growth so give yourself that and allow yourself to stand proud without being prideful. Ill leave it at that I think.
