"Why do you love me?" is mostly the counter question when a lady receives a love proposal.
It has become so easy for some men to utter the phrase without reservations "I love you".
The speed with which some of these people fall in love is the same speed they fall out of it. Why do some people get angry when their love proposals are turned down ? Don't those whom are proposed to, reserve the right to accept or reject ?
I should think if you really love someone, their happiness should be your utmost concern. And if the person you love feels she is going to be happy with another person, you should be gracious enough to prove your love by allowing her to go. And if they are truly yours, they will return. But if it is not meant to be, no matter how hard you try, you will not be loved in return.
It is difficult to let go because it is not her that you love, but the joy you derive from being with her. Love is so fulfilling when returned.
*One of the paradoxes of love is that, " Sometimes, the one you love, does not love you and the who loves you, you also do not love"*.
*_Better be lonely than marry someone you do not love._*
It is not fair to accept to marry someone you do not love, you deny each other the fulfilment of love you both deserve.
*Do not lead people on when you do not love them. Be frank and firm with them.*
Do not accept to marry anyone because you pity them.
Some people have also misconstrued sex for love. But, if it were so, prostitutes would have been the "best of lovers". Do not fall into Satan's version of love which is lust.
With prayer and patience you will find your true love.
"Friends today, enemies tomorrow" should as much as possible be avoided. GOD is Love. Love is sacrosanct and love must not be brought into disrepute.
