To love is to take responsibility for a loved one

If I love you, I am sensitive to most of your personal needs. Such responsibility doesn't mean that I will do for you what you are able to do yourself. I will not live your life for you. Responsibility is understanding that my personality and my actions affect you. But in many ways it depends on me whether you are happy or not. A lover is capable of both offending and neglecting the one he loves. In this sense, for me to love means to take responsibility for how my behavior and my actions will affect you.

Love is the improvement of both: the lover and the beloved

I love you and this love makes me better. For me, you are an incentive, and I want to fully realize my capabilities. My love is the same incentive for you. Taking care of the other and feeling his care, each of us improves. We share life experience with each other, which does not diminish the importance of each of us as an individual.

To love is to be loyal to the one you love

Love is devotion to the one you love. Devotion does not mean completely abandoning oneself in the name of another or a permanent relationship. But it means an unconditional willingness to be close to a loved one, when it is hard for him, when he is tormented by doubts, when he suffers and overcomes difficulties. It is also a willingness to share calm and joyful moments with him.

To love is to be vulnerable

I trusted you and opened up. You can hurt me, you can reject me, and I can lose you altogether. But, despite the fear of losing you, I must allow you to become a significant person for me - that's what love is. Since you are not perfect, you may well make me suffer. There can be no guarantees in love, and no one can promise you that it will last forever. To love means to participate in the life of another person and share with him the experience that he gains. I love you, and therefore I want to spend time with you and share significant aspects of your life with you. But at the same time I want to share with you the important events of my life.
