Koushun TakamiLoving someone always requires you to not love others.
About This Quote
We may think that we love the people we’re in love with, but we don’t. When we fall in love, we may believe that we fall in love with the person’s whole self. But what we really fall in love with is part of their picture and if their picture is incomplete, we won’t be satisfied. The best relationship is the one where you can give and receive equally and without reservation.
