I just feel inspired lately, since it's one of the things constantly in my mind...
I am going to share here a quote of Ted Mosby, the main hero of the American TV series How I Met your Mother - a series I liked [even though it does copy Friends a bit...] but realized after watching it several times, that it's always sad... Romantic... but bittersweet...
For Robin
"Actually there is a word for that. It's
'love'. If you're looking for a word that means caring for someone beyond all
rationality and wanting them to have anything they want no matter how much it destroys you, it's love. And when you love someone you just...you don't stop EVER. Even when people roll their eyes or call you crazy. Even then. Especially then! You just...you don't give up! Because if I could give up...if I could just take the whole world's advice and move on and find somebody else, it wouldn't be love. That would be some other disposable thing that is not worth fighting for.But that is not what this is."
One of the few times I'm speechless ... nothing to add ... couldn't be more ok with everything in this paragraph. Agreed 100%...
And this is how we should respond to problems (especially love problems -or problematic lovers-):
