To Be Loved


To love and to be loved are two different things; especially to a girl.

In order for a girl to love, she needs to be loved.

On the other hand, in order for a man to love,

he needs honor and to be thought as the alpha or the king.

As if his love is his personal slave.

 

A girl seeks trust while a man seeks lust;

on the contrary, there is such a thing as love and lust between two people.

In order to love another in a mature and serious way,

one another must trust the other no matter to the extent of life's nonsense.

Love is trust... Without lies is the best love of all.
