Hope you don ' t live in a rabies country lol . <| sep |> It ' s quite more complicated than you make it out to be . Love is not a quantifiable metric . It ' s just a strong connection people make with other people , places , and things . And in the today ' s context , that ' s not even a suitable definition because it comes in so many different forms , is expressed in so many different ways , and is different for different people . Individuals love things differently , even people . I ' ve loved my fair share of women at different times , but I ' ve never loved a different womanthe same way as the last one . If anyone thinks they have , I don ' t think that ' s actually love . Saving anything ' s life isn ' t ever really a testament of love , either . Perhaps very rarely transplants come to mind . Sure , you care about them . But potentially killing yourself so that someone else can live is also a pretty fucking selfish decision . I know , personally , I would rather anyone willing to die for me so that I could live would just let me die so that they can live . Love is about the time you spend together when you ' re both alive , and how one remembers the other after they are gone . Death got nothing to do with it it ' s just a thing that happens . And sacrifice , in any form , often has underlying selfish intentions andor leads to pretty unhealthy relationships . Selfishness and love never coexist .
