its the little small little actions. the care, the concern, the feeling i'm important to you, the passion you had for me, the respect, understanding, the trust.
"The greatest loving relationships exist when both partners love unconditionally. Both are actively thinking of ways to help and please the other, without a thought of what they are getting for it, in return. Each is in the relationship for the welfare of the other, not so that they can feel loved themselves. They are, of course, overjoyed to receive love from the other, but for them, giving love is how they are satisfied, not receiving it.
For indeed, to love is to give. To be in a relationship for the sole purpose of receiving love is selfish. And, relationships wherein the participants only give things to their partner, for what the will get back for it, are also based on selfish motivation. And selfishness is the antithesis of love. "
im trying very very hard to love unconditonally. but i can't help feeling sad. ):
