A commitment not a feeling - most ppl confuse infatuation with love imo - but I'm just a bitter middle aged divorced dude - what do I know ??8

Knowing you would be lost without this person in your life because they are your rock. Knowing that you are their rock too and that together you can face anything that life throws at you.
Oh and s*xy times, mustn't forget them

a willingness to offer them everything3

Love is just a game that everybody plays and when the game is over not everybody pays. Some play the game to lose, some play the game to win. The winners walk out laughing, the losers cry and deal again.1

Love is finding that special person who will 'insightful' all your comments instead of 'woo' them. Who will respond to our innocent PMs until they turn into something far more flirty, hot and steamy. It's exchanging kik handles because you love them enough to want to send pics but not enough for them to know your full name or number. It's making all those special promises to visit one another and actually believing it will happen.....one day. It's a feeling so strong when you find out your love is doing it with everyone you can't help but rage quit and come back later, beaten, bruised but ready to get back on that horse.13

I only use "insightful" passive agressively
check your PMs. I like where this is headed.3 -
I know more of what love is not supposed to be.3

but if this is true, does it mean that the lover always subjugates his own happiness in favor of the lovee’s? This could go really unhealthy.0 -

Such is love then no? I mean when one marries they say for better or worse in sickness and in health - health would incompass mental health right? But we don’t really mean it - we really only mean for better - and only as much worse as one can stand in their own head .. my bridge too far is infidelity- could handle pretty much anything else cause I said I would - everyone has a breaking point I guess - but again I’m newly divorced and my opinion has been admittedly a bit skewed this past year - 🤷♂️1 -
Wonderment and misery. Flip a coin on any given day.1

Love is the willingness to sacrifice your wants and desires to accommodate the other person.2

I agree and I’m going out on a limb to say that in a healthy relationship, all parties do this so it isn’t always a single giver. If you look out for me and i look out for you, that makes a beautiful circle and we both get our needs met.
Edit for a single negative conjunction that bothered me1 -
The only REAL love in my opinion is that for your child. Everything else is replacable.3

When it’s not reciprocal that’s not love in my opinion, that’s simply emotional dependancy.4
