Plastic Love

When you say you love someone, what do you actually feel towards the other person? The main facet of such "love" should be the desire to see your beloved happy, shouldn't it? In order to contribute to their happiness, you will be expected to do or not do certain things - such as being available and supportive, refraining from behaving in a controlling or abusive way etc. If you say you love another, yet you do "nothing" to prove it with your actions (i.e. you are not available or supportive, you are controlling and abusive etc.), your so-called love is like a plastic flower that seems to be the real thing while it is not. It "only" looks like a flower but it has none of the attributes it should have. Its petals are not soft and velvety, it has no fragrance, its beauty is fake and, if you look closely, you will realize it. Therefore... check out how you love your beloved, but check also how your beloved loves you. It goes both ways!
