A relationship isn't about giving or getting, it is about how you feel about yourself when you are with that other person.

That sounds like something an abuser would tell someone. You're not supposed to love me for your happiness, you need to love me for MY happiness.

 

Nope, no way.

Re: Do You Agree With This?

[ Edited ]

IMO you only marry once for love...unconditional and always give and take. I've been married three times. The only reason I'd marry again will be for $$money$$.Woman LOLand I'm not kidding.

 

No, I do not agree with the op.

That statement makes it sound like it is a choice someone makes.  Falling in love for the "right reasons" is not a choice you can make.

I don't agree with it at all. I think it was probably written by a 12 or 13 year old girl (or boy) who is experiencing their first major crush while wearing their rose colored glasses.

True love that will last has to be reciprocal with both parties wanting to make each other happy.  I don't think it can work any other way.  IMO

I'm not sure falling in love is always a happy experience... Period...

"never fall in love to..." as if falling in love with someone is a choice.  You love who you love,it happens.  Finding that person unworthy gives you the choice and I hope it's to leave.

No one decides to fall in love, love doesn't work like that.  Love is shared thing, it's one sided.  When you love someone and are loved back you have shared happiness and you do things to make each other happy.  You don't think about it, plan it or decide to do it.  It's organic...it happens....because that's what love is.

Sounds like something that was translated.  Badly.
