Great write up @emma-h I'd be on the same page as you in the majority, if not all of what you say. I think everyone has a certain qouta of love to give and for me it depends on how much love one received as a child, I was lucky to receive loads and I tell my three children every day that I love them and they say the same back. I've never known love like the love I have for my children, but I love my Mum and Dad, my Granny when she was alive (only Grand parent I met, others were already dead), my brothers and sisters, friends. I've lots of love to give, and I put that down to my childhood and mainly my Mum and all the love and adoration she poured on me and my 5 sisters and 2 brothers.
