Not meaning to steal the thread or create an uproar but i am a bit confused by your statement Lenny.

Love is a wonderfull feeling and in its purest form it has no expectations. But we do need to make it from one day to the next and there are basic life skills that allow Love to breath in its purest form...

With love, dont we expect to be treated well and be respected? If you love somebody and somebody loves you, shouldn't they support you? Maybe I'm reading too much into it but I thought these things were a part of a healthy relationship, weather it was a friendship, significant other, bf/gf, fiance, or family.
Without respect, how can you love somebody?
