I never thought of it as the drive for love Genetic. To me, it was fear, but looking deeper, I can see that the fear is connected to love in how Im afraid something will happen which disconnects me from something I love if that makes any sense. Like if I get so mad that I lose my job, then I cant take care of myself. If I cant take care of myself, I wont be in a position to help my aging mom, instead, I might become dependent on her or friends which I fear might make them love me less. So I can see how its inter-related. Its being loving to myself (and them) when I try to learn to manage my anger and prevent my fears from becoming reality. Thanks to you and dg for giving me the opening to look at that closer.

Also, what George and bharaini said about stress and jealousy. Stress, jealousy, fear, anger, and love. All connected. Discussion! Yeah!
