HOW

The question is not who we choose love but how we choose to love them. 

We can love anyone, it's one of the few things on this earth where the choice is freely ours. But how we go about it is another story all together. 

People claim to love someone with all their hearts. God, you can love someone with all your soul and the very essence of your being.  Your love for them could consume you to the extent that you are no longer living to love them but loving them to stay alive.

But are you loving them right? 

Are you giving them the love they deserve?

Most importantly, do they deserve your love?

You may think that someone is the one for you. All the signs may seemingly point in that direction. Everyone might tell you that it's going to last forever...until you get hurt. Then you realize that they were never worth all the trouble, they were just a waste of your time. 

I am in no position to dispense such 'advice' and these are mere ramblings. I have zero experience in the field yet most pieces are compiled on empirical evidence - none that is mine, of course.
