Love

Perhaps make yourself a suitable partner for the type of partner your looking for, or be yourself and wait for someone who is looking for you. Maybe somewhere in between those things. I've been told there is a better chance of finding it once you stop looking for it, so maybe its more about being found by love - if thats not confusing enough. Good Luck!!!

there are many types of love, understanding them all would be time consuming and difficult, searching for them would be even more time consuming and difficult...
Expressing universal unconditional love (compassion) to all is the only sure way to be found by it, but it may take years or even a lifetime to be found by it...patience is vital...

Warning: Spoiler!
There is passion, yet there is peace
Through passion I gain strength and knowledge
Through strength and knowledge I gain victory
Through victory I gain peace and harmony
Through peace and harmony my chains are broken
There is no death, there is the force and it shall free me
Through passion I gain strength and knowledge
Through strength and knowledge I gain victory
Through victory I gain peace and harmony
Through peace and harmony my chains are broken
There is no death, there is the force and it shall free me

Better to leave questions unanswered than answers unquestioned
If you have difficulty feeling love, I'm afraid most of us cannot help you.
If it is about dealing with the feeling, then, again, it depends if the feeling brings you any problems. One should be aware of it and give in to it but not make it influence your judgement. I know this sounds vague, but it is fairly simple to grasp: You are a human being and there is no way you can turn off what you feel. There is also nothing wrong in expressing a feeling just as long as there is no significant permanent harm done. But that very harm is the thing to be cautious about. If your emotions suggest actions that are contrary to those suggested by your other means of reasoning, and especially, if the emotionally motivated actions are worse in momentary and latching effect, you should carefully consider this and decide healthily.
If your question is about finding love, I cannot concur with previous comments. Sure, one shouldn't pretend or change in order to find love. You don't have to push your bloom in the bee's face, but don't stand there like a mushroom that has none but only waits for some wind to pass by.

As with ever person, every situation is unique... what does your heart tell you?
Replied by Wescli Wardest on topic Re: Love
If someone wants to be a part of your life, they'll make, an effort to be in it. So don't bother reserving a space in your heart for someone who doesn't make an effort to stay.

Advice on love...?
My advice would be...
Don't listen to other people's advice on love!
Hahaha
If you conduct your affairs in love according to other people's advice rather than your heart, if it ever results in something going 'wrong' you will never forgive yourself...
Do what feels right...it may not always work out the way you want, but at least you'll have been true to yourself (and to the other person as well)...

Few are those who see with their own eyes and feel with their own hearts.
