Love is a statement: “I want.” I want to get to know you better, I want to spend time with you, I want to share myself with you, I want to see how you will react to this or that. I want to know your thoughts and feelings. I want to run downstairs and greet you with open arms when you come home. I want to take care of you when you’re feeling unwell. I want your happiness. I want you to feel safe, protected, loved and cherished.
