Someone once told me, "You have to love the person he/she wanted to be loved, not the way you wanted to love them." I pondered on that thought and never seemed to understand it till now.
Should we try to love another person the way he/she wanted to be loved? Or love the person however way we wanted to and thinking that they should understand?
It probably would be quite lonely and insecure to be in a relationship where the person loves you the way he/she wanted to and expects you to understand. All the guessing and trying to convince yourself will eventually exhaust everyone involved.
How have you been loving your love one? The way he/she wanted it? Or the way you wanted it? Have you been listening to his/her requests? Or you chose to ignore them?
Although I understand it now, actually capable of doing it is another thing.
Listen with your heart.
