Mostly, what people mean by love is laziness.

Amanda Craig
About This Quote

To say that someone is lazy means that they are not willing to put in much effort. They are not willing to work hard to achieve something. They are willing to let other people do it for them, even if they have the ability to do it themselves. They are not willing to work hard at anything because they believe that they can get what they want by letting others do it for them.According to this quote, people who love others do so only because it is easier than doing something for themselves. The problem with this is that when people love you only because it is easier, then you feel like you don’t deserve it or that you don’t deserve the love of another person because you are lazy.
