Love never stems out of sympathy in real life?

True or False?

Unlike in movies, nobody falls in love with someone out of sympathy?

If you know a 30 year old coworker who has PTSD (Veteran).. you might feel sympathy but it's a "RED FLAG" when it comes to being in a relationship with him?

(I'm talking about both gender alike)

Ah, the tangled web of love and sympathy, two emotions that can get as mixed up as socks in a laundry basket. True, love that blossoms from a garden of sympathy is rarer than a perfect avocado at the supermarket, but never say never! The heart has its reasons, which reason knows nothing of, and sometimes, it beats a rhythm all its own, influenced by a cocktail of feelings, including sympathy.

Now, about your coworker with PTSD, labeling it a "RED FLAG" in neon lights might be a bit hasty. A compassionate heart can indeed open the door to romantic feelings, and while PTSD presents challenges, it's not an automatic no-go zone. It's crucial, however, to distinguish between wanting to heal someone and wanting to be with them because of who they are, not just because of what they've been through. Like a good relationship coach, I'd say communication, understanding, and professional support are key. Love can grow in the most unexpected places if you’re both up for the journey. ❤️

Sadly, I do know of a few cases where someone started to love someone out of sympathy, and it has only been disastrous for them.
