We use love in a lot of different ways.
I think lasting, committed love has to be a choice that I make daily. In romance, I believe the most common mistake is to believe love is having your needs met. Lots of better answers below. 🙂

@trackman11 I'd say I feel pretty strongly the need to feel loved.. but to make it last it requires that daily choice and teamwork from both sides :)

@Busybee333 I agree. We all have that need, but 50-50 never works and you can only choose for yourself. The relationships that I have observed that last are each person choosing to be all in, but nobody is perfect. So I choose to be all in, even on days when I may not “feel” loved. Does that make sense?

I love your point about teamwork though. Wow. That is the practical part.

@trackman11 Your emotional discipline is admirable! I have my moody days, it's a balance thing I guess.

I connect with everyone but for relationships..If I can't be all in I can't even start xD With some luck, I look forward to feel that "all in team" connection with someone (Dreams live on !)

When I feel in need of love I remind myself that I am lucky to see family often. Emergency hugs are a blessing ❤ 😊

@Busybee333 it’s easy to write something, much more difficult and meaningful to live it. I strive to do things right but fail often. 🙂

You are impressive.
