Good question! Love is hard to define and it probably means something different to everyone, but I think it's about the way someone makes you feel. Either that or you’re naive and don’t realize how tough things are likely to get. I hope that helps and I wish you all the best.

But real love is understanding you are not 'magical', you do NOT have the capacity to make another become 'un-abused' because if they really loved you they'd behave in an idealised way. If you are a psychologist, I am surprised you have not heard of attachment styles - secure, avoidant, ambivalent, and disordered. Especially if we’ve been in this position before -- already knowing how much losing someone can hurt you is enough to make you feel nervous about falling too hard for someone new. He is friendly, funny and he wants to help. I think attachment is fine as long as you're aware it's just attachment and nothing more.

It’s not about "not being able to live without this person." So a person needs support and the feeling that they're appreciated, or simply needs companion or even just "date" for the fun of it.

But same with the first guy! If the last one is true, than you are definitely in the love lane. ("baby don't hurt me" does not qualify as an answer. Will he be okay without me? When we find someone who always manages to make us nervous, it’s a clear sign we find keeping him or her around extremely important. Deborah. It's like wearing pajamas to school or taking off a bra.

The kind of love discussed in the article seems like the kind of love experienced in dreams of having sex with friends--trusting, fun, and caring without expectations. If there are regrets, financial instability, abuse, and emotional neglect ( I'm going to assume lack of communication). And hopefully that love is mutual. I don't know if it's possible to love two men at once. It sounds like man number 2 is a good-ish guy- but you've found better in guy number 1. I said, "You told me not to." Now if I could only remember that! Love isn't this, love isn't that, this is a red flag and so is that, you'll weather this storm and eventually find love....but what the hell is love? Love is whole and wholly giving. "I love pizza" versus "I love my husband" are worlds apart for example, and there are many in between. I kept thinking that I never forced him to move with me. The first, was ended because I had never gotten to see him in person (this isn't catfish, I know he's real). When I'm not around him I threw a tantrum.

It’s about knowing you may very well have to live without him or her -- and that’s not a thought you can think about for too long without tearing up.
