About This Quote
The idea of love being based on a feeling is a misconception. It isn’t just a feeling, but the work that goes into finding that one person who is perfect for you and how to let them know that you are the right one for them. Love has nothing to do with what you are expecting to get – only with what you are expecting to give – which is everything.
