Here is what i don't understand. how can someone say that they love you, they you are the best thing that has even happened to you and that they'd do anything to keep you in their lives.... then turn around within the same day and say what an idiot you are...
every time it seems as though maybe he really does love me, he just proves himself a liar. it kills me.
He's not a liar. he's just none too bright himself
there is a difference between having "feelings of love" for someone, and choosing to treat them lovingly. there is also a difference between loving someone, and respecting them. or thinking they are highly intelligent.
You loved your newborn. but i doubt even a mother can think that their 1-day-old child is either "highly intelligent", or "worthy of respect"
oh. which brings up a similar thing to the first clause: there is a difference between "respecting someone", and "treating them with respect".
Just as with choosing to treat someone "with love", it is a choice about your external actions, that is not neccessarily detemined by the internal feelings.
Then, there is knowing HOW to treat someone with love, and/or respect. Someone can make a choice to try to do those, but not have a good understanding of HOW.
That's when a good NERF(tm) bat comes in handy. For "educational" purposes
