Love is never Selfish

Was looking through my email stash and found a very interesting and meaningful article written by my best friend about Love been never Selfish. When people are in Love or people who fall in Love, they tend to be a bit selfish in their thoughts and actions but true love is never selfish for it is about giving for what is right for the person you. Have a good read on this article and inspire. :)

Love is never selfish. That often used cliche of "If you love someone, set them free" is very apt. If you love someone, you always put their needs first, you always care about their feelings and what affects them. Even if it means having to be hurt yourself, or having to take a backseat to whatever else they prioritise first in their life. It means that one has to be giving to the person they love. If you know that the person you love loves someone else and the feelings are reciprocated, then if you truly love that person, you'll try to do what's best for them, even if it means letting go.

It's natural to feel selfish. It's human nature! We all want what we think or feel is best for us. But it's whether we put any thought or consideration of the other party that defines whether we're really thinking of them, whether we really love them or not. If you find that all thoughts are always about your needs and wants instead of what the other person wants and what the other person is feeling, then it's probably not love.
