I Love You Just Because

3-ceremony-203-X2


I love you just because I love you. It isn’t for anything else but you. Not for cash or status or my ego or an accessory, not because I’m afraid of loneliness, and it’s beyond the first bursts of chemistry. Love is hard work and it requires all of me, everything, with no guarantees, except the love in itself that’s promised and true. That’s just-because love. I love you for you.
— J.S.

  1. I wonder what percent of marriages one or both love the other because of themselves. I think most do. Example: Partner #1 “I love you because you make me feel proud that I was able to get you to love me.” Partner #2 “I love you because you make me feel important.”
