That loving the wrong person can cause you more damage than most things in this world. Never settle for less than what you deserve as those wounds are a heavy weight to carry. |

Also, that no matter how head over heels you are, it is very important to never lose yourself in the process.
Many of us give everything to someone else and neglect ourselves, and if that's not being reciprocated or it doesn't work out in the long run, it's very hard to remember who you are and what you need and enjoy. x |

"Here's one thing I know: the whole "you've got to love yourself before you can be loved" thing is absolute bollocks.
I was very well-loved, even when I loathed myself."
I don't think it's about not being able to be loved, it's being loved in the right way. When you don't love yourself you are more likely to accept people who are not good for you. |

"Romantic love is all very well until the chips are down. Then you want the other kind that means you've got each others back even when you don't like each other very much"
We've got each other's backs AND we like each other. A lot. |

Yeah so do we but we've been together coming up for 44 years we know it's not always twinkly stars and bunny rabbits. If you've got someone's back in the bad times, that's love. |

That many people mistake infatuation for love, and many stay in situations that are unhealthy because of it.
That it feels wonderful when mutual, and like the worst thing when unrequited.
That love requires freedom to breathe and commitment to its nurture to survive.

Learnt a few things as a teen.
1) If you treat her like a Queen, she will treat you like a subject.
2) You have no control over other people's actions, just your own and what you will or wont tolerate.
3) Nice guys finnish last.
You have to pay attention to how they treat you just as much as how you treat them amd you don't have to tollerate certain things. You can walk away.
To be fair, I'm glad it happened. Would not have met my wife of 28 years otherwise and I doubt she'd have any interest in the guy I was who had little confidence in himself and was worried about being alone if he didn't put up with certain crap. Better it happened to me.at 18 than 28 so to speak.

Eventually, there's a negotiation phase, where the details may be of varying levels of importance, but the ability to learn to communicate collaboratively is essential.
If that doesn't happen then it becomes a magic roundabout of fuckery. Especially, if you get hooked on the make-up sex. |

Totally get some negative shades on thoughts but we totally believe love is the foundation upon which you can do something like swinging… without that solid foundation, cracks can expose faster than you can say osteoarthritis we love love ❤️ |

"Love begins and ends with the self and is something that you give to others.
"
Granny, you'll probably be unsurprised to know that Pickle's question brought a song into my head. A song from primary school:
Love is something if you give it away
Give it away, give it away.
Love is something if you give it away
You end up having more.
It's just like a magic penny
Hold it tight and you won't have any.
Lend it, spend it and you'll have so many
They'll roll all over the floor. |

What a lovely concept - giving love and letting it grow !
Why do you think i'd be unsuprised ? |
