what is l. o. v. e. ?
Doing what’s best for someone. Even if they disagree.
are you sure its that simple.
No, there are many complexities to love. But it’s one of the core parts of my understanding of the concept.

Who are you to decide what is best for them? What if your concept of "best" is mutually exclusive with what they think is "best" for you? Does love then become a contest? A battle of wills? Is the one with the most power in the relationship inherently more correct about what's "best" for the other?
*I*, personally, know what is best because I have the greater viewpoint. I stand on higher ground and look down, and I see the paths laid out that those I love must follow to reach their ultimate ending point. And though they may squirm and struggle, I ensure they walk that path. For their own good.
