Obsession is everything true love isnt, when it comes to relationships and feelings.
Love is selflessness. You hope the best for that very person, even if the burden of the cost is on yourself.
Love is kind. You give and give - never hoping to receive anything in return.
Love is trusting. Constantly giving your loved ones the benefit of the doubt, even at the worst of times.
Love is forgiving. There will be quarrels and misunderstandings that crop up, but if there is love, they will eventually accept the other's mistake and love them just the same.
Love is understanding. You dont pick on the other's behavior because you know what it feels like to be in his shoes.
Love is empathy. You feel for him, just by the tone of his voice or his facial expression.
Love is respecting. Acknowledging that person has feelings just like you and never once behaving like you have the right to defame them, call them ugly names, or hurt them.
The circumstances may change and the phases through life may make it seemingly impossible to ever reconcile. People may move on, people might not. But I honestly believe that when you love somebody, the feelings will always remain.
I finally know what love is. But I learnt it at the expense of a break-up. I hope others can learn from my mistake. Because it is a regret that I continue to live with, even if it no longer haunts me.
Valentine's Day everybody.
