I believe that loving someone means making the choice everyday to treat them with love and respect.
Committing to being committed and choosing to work on your own attitudes and habits will make your relationship with your husband or wife or boyfriend or girlfriend last. We’ve heard it said that the true definition of love is: giving someone what they need the most when they deserve it the least. It’s about doing your best to be selfless and serve one another.
The definition of love in 1 Corinthians 13 involves a commitment of patience, kindness, keeping no record of wrongs, etc. Even, and most of all, when we don’t feel like it. Make the choice everyday to love your partner.
Therefore, love is not a feeling but a choice. We have no choice in falling in love, but we have a choice in staying in love.
