So you can see how difficult it is to talk about love, which strangely enough I am the first to comment on, when you always have thousands of comments. hahaha. I think you have the makings of a good writer and I'm sure a book written by you would be very well received, especially by your readers here. Maybe I am not the best one to talk about love, because I have only fallen in love twice in my life. And I have enjoyed it a lot! I feel that to love is to be naked in front of a stranger: you expose yourself to anything, from being loved, to being rejected. But like the famous quote: it is better to experience that vertigo, those infinite sensations for another person, than to be dry before the world. Once, a boy who loved me, but that I wanted as a friend, dedicated a poem of Ernesto Cardenal to me that always marked me and that says
When I lost you,
you and I have lost:
Me, because you were
what I loved most.
And you, because I was
the one who loved you the most.
But of the two of us,
you lose more than I do:
because I will be able
love others
as I loved you,
but you will not be loved,
as I loved you.
To love is to expose oneself to not being loved, however one must be grateful to live this feeling. Greetings and thanks, @tarazkp
