Love is friendship, plus a couple of special things. After all, this mysterious feeling is the height of the intimacy of human relationships, the highest, so to speak, their point, which originated from the depths of friendship. She is their happy continuation, and not a temple on the ashes of friendly relations, as many used to think.
A loving person will not make the object of his sympathy suffer. He will join the hobbies of his beloved and share his interests with him. Love relationships involve self-improvement and spiritual enrichment. Respect, mutual understanding and trust, devotion and care - isn't this a sign of true love?!
A person who loves someone never behaves embitteredly with other people, because by loving one, enriched by love, he shares the excess of feeling with everyone, which is expressed in the kindness and responsiveness of a loving person.
And yet, whatever one may say, love was, is and will be a feeling more spiritual than physical, and in fact the spiritual rapprochement of people begins precisely with friendly relationships.
It is impossible to build a strong, happy family and adequately raise offspring without mutual respect, understanding and devotion. You cannot build a solid life, thinking only about your own interests and personal comfort.
What is love for you?
