Love

I LOVE YOU MEANS...

I want to take care of you

I will provide shelter for you if I can

I will help you with any children we have

I will protect you from harm

I will hug you better when you feel badly

I will share any income I have with you

I will respect you at all times

I will not belittle you in front of others

I will make every day with you a special day

I’ll make sure you’re never cold or lonely

I will help you realize your ambitions

I will give you credit for all that you do

I feel complete with you nearby

I will think of you often when you’re away

I will renew and reaffirm my love each day

I can overlook your human shortcomings

We will do our best together

What can we do to solve this problem?

What you feel affects me greatly

I will help you accomplish your dreams

I am completely vulnerable to you



I LOVE YOU DOES NOT MEAN...

I want you to take care of me

I want to kiss you

I want to go to bed with you

I want you to do housework for me

I want you to share your money with me

I wish to have you around to pick on

I want you to wait on me on all holidays

You go to work; I’ll take care of the house

I’ll go party - you take care of the home

Please pay the bills

Give me sex whenever I want it

I’ll stay with you until I feel like leaving

I cannot live without you

You cannot go anywhere without me

I will love you more at times

I will make you into a better person

Your life will be a bed of roses

We will live happily ever after

I want your help with my goals

Please act predictably at all times

Enjoy everything I want to do
