That is a very interesting question. I think that's not entirely true.
For example, my husband does love me but he loves me in his own way. As in he provides for me and my kids. He is faithful and he spends some time with me. But he is not a "counselor" or a "theologian" or a "girlfriend" or someone who can empathize with me and have good listening skills. He just doesn't have some skills but he is good with others. Because of that I have to find counselors, and pastors and other girlfriends who do have the skills that I am looking for to fulfill me...

This week I came to the conclusion that love and responsibility are sometimes two different things. Lets say hypothetically that a man or woman has an alcoholic father or mother who is always hitting them and swearing profanities at them. The person's responsibility is not to love the hateful person or get emotionally involved with them but to take care of them in old age or to treat them with a limited degree of consideration.
Love is a mirror3d version of how we see ourselves, we seek what we lack in another person. If the desire is not equal it is not real love. I think in todays age it is harder to make people realize the simple things in life, including people a d materialistic things that do not matter.
True, there always has to be more. Not necessarily sexual, but there has to be something else.
I don't agree. Love goes two ways so it isn't really love if its one sided.

So true... I guess it is never enough for some people
True. Sometimes focusing on yourself is more effective. As someone who has depression, a lot of the time a lover doesn't always fill the hole
Ultra true.
Takes patience, self respect, tact and some crazyness to make things work.Yes it's true. Two people can love each other very much but not make it work for various reasons.
I disagree love is enough based on your definition for it for me loving someone is a trust and a friendship and safety what else should I need more
Absolutely true. It's like trying to push two magnets together on the same magnetic field.

Sometimes love isn't enough because in the end mutuality is more important.
