Love is a strange feeling. Sometimes it feels fleeting while other times it feels like its wrapped around you like a warm blanket. Even the way it enters your life is strange because a majority of the time it starts off as a familial love and then later romantic love enters your life and you are unsure of how to approach this new romantic love at first. You love them for sure but you are so used to the familial love that knowing how to go about treating romantic love is foreign. Well love, like most things, take time to understand and sometimes some things about love can never be understood but simply felt.
The feeling is good. The feeling is something that makes you feel warm and safe. Knowing that the person you love is looking out for you and cares for you. Love isn't supposed to hurt or make you sad. It isn't supposed to harm or abandon you. If it does then it wasn't really love to begin with and shouldn't be thought of as love or influence your take on love. When you find love, real love, you will know it and feel that warmth for the entire time together and those closest to you can see it too.
So when you find the real love don't EVER let it go. If you did it would be one of the greatest regrets of your life. Real love that you feel deep down doesn't come around often in life for the same person. Some people never find their real love so if you find yours hold tight and don't let go.
Enjoy your love or if you don't have one yet then enjoy the magnificence and hopefully the adventure of finding your love. It will be worth any hardships you encounter, I promise, and in the end your relationship will be stronger. Having everything when you get into a relationship, in my opinion, leaves gaps and time for drifting apart so dealing with difficult situations together is a good and should be a welcomed thing.
The MOST important type of love is SELF LOVE. To love yourself is the greatest of love that a person can have. You have to love yourself before anyone else can truly love you or you truly love anyone else. Loving yourself is important for many reasons. Firstly, how can you expect to accept the love of another if you don't love yourself? All you would do is push someone trying to love you away. Secondly, not having self love, a lot of times, leads to mistrust and paranoia in a relationship. That isn't healthy and could potentially end a good relationship. Lastly, how can you work to make difficult decisions and want make your relationship stronger if you don't love yourself (have self-esteem)? You can't because all you will think is that you aren't worth their love or time. Not having self love has got to be one of the most disastrous/ dangerous thing to a relationship (and person). With no motivation to build a relationship for fear of not being worthy how can you see yourself staying in said relationship? LOVE YOURSELF FIRST THEN OTHERS.
SO LOVE AND BE LOVED.
