Hello Simone Nam Lucinha and all, I have a confession to make which is ... I don't know much about LOVE myself. The truth is : If I do,I won't come up with such questions,will I ? LOL
I do like the answers Nam and Simone gave here. If we want to be loved or understood,we need to love and understand others first.The idea seems simple and obvious enough to grasp,but it's quite difficult to do. Most people I know seem more interested in being paid close attention to instead of taking time and efforts to really get to know their partners. I'm not as optimistic as Simone in the respect that the more you know another person,the better you'll love him/her. Chances are when he/she sees your true self,he/she may either choose to leave you or stick with you forever.;) LOVE is just as risky as all other lines of business,isn't it? I'd rather be understood than loved because my biological family love me but they don't understand me.There's always a gap that we can't break through. If I was lucky enough to make a choice,I'd rather love someone more than be loved passionately by someone else. Loving someone allows oneself to be filled with much more intense and profound sentiment which is a lot more fulfilling and enrichful than passively receiving love from someone. So I ended my two cents... Thanks and nice weekend to you all!
