How to know if you love someone or you just want them to love you

Loving to be loved it not love at all...it’s manipulation. Love requires sacrifice and a willingness to do what you believe is “truly” best for the other person. When we really love then the fruit of love (the feeling of love) will take care of itself. Wrote about this extensively in “The Right Fight” how to live a loving life. 1 Corinthians 13:4-7 Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.
