"Because I Love You."


“Because I love you.” Four little words that can make or break this relationship. What’s it going to be? What are you going to choose? To make me? Or to break me? To love me? Or to manipulate my heart? Will it be “I do this because I love you,” Or will it be “Because I love you, I trust you?” Could it, will it be “Because I love you, I will communicate with you.” Or it could also be “Because I love you, I will respect your wishes. I will be compassionate. I will be honest. You are my equal. I will give you your space” You decide. But decide with love. And decide with care. Because if you break me, it will no longer be “Because I love you.” It will have turned into “Because I loved you.”
