Remember... the one who loves the least controls the relationship.
I know what you mean but it seems wrong to use "love" as the describer. How about the one who is least ego-invested controls the relationship? Of course, wanting to be validated for being "loving" is a form of ego-investment. I think it could be a very loving gesture to become less ego-invested in a relationship.

I'm not in the least offended. However, I don't think that I need to self-protect in the manner you describe. I'm perfectly content to f*ck up a few potentially great relationships if necessary. I might even discover some new animals for my zoo along the way. I sure as sh*t do need to get that lioness in shape. I've got some definite boundary forming issues around financial and related matters due to my FOO. I'm sure you can relate.
