About the way I love

1) I am “all” or “nothing” emotionally and psychologically. I try to apply this same level of interpersonal connection with everyone upon first meeting as I see all humans as potential family.

2) I require two basic things in order for the people I know to be friends, lovers, family, confidants as oppose to just people I know:

  • I need to feel the other person is making an effort to build and sustain a relationship with me.
  • I need to feel like putting in the effort necessary to give all I have to the other person.

3) My all or nothing style of loving doesn’t mean I don’t, or cease to love someone. It means I either give all or only give the “wish you wellness/happiness” love so long as the other person’s wellness/happiness doesn’t harm or come at my expense.

4) My “all” way of loving is not unconditional. I give it easy and I see it can be quite addictive. Because most people I know don’t love like I do, they confuse my “all” for something that can be taken for granted. When I feel that I am being taken for granted, I take my “all” away. Once it is away, it is damn near impossible to get me to give it back again.
