1. The love of my life is . . . right now, Boo. But we’ll see

5. The key to a good relationship is . . . is the same as a good marriage. Patience, communication and the effort to keep trying equally.
6. I feel loved when . . . when my mom calls me each morning, my dad says goodbye before he leaves, my friends hug me, Boo offers kisses, little gestures of appreciation are made, I sit in the sunshine.
7. My favorite quote about love is . . . ”Love is all you need” – John Lennon (smart man)

You’re right about love being about vulnerability. But it’s also about trust – you put your feelings out there and hope they are reciprocated – it hurts like mad when you put those feelings out there and they aren’t reciprocated but it’s so worth it when they are returned.
I completely agree! It can be scary, but definitely worth it in the end.
