hiya-

it's not a "stone" like you describe. this think we feel - it's more like an incredible power that person has allowed you and should realize it's just that another human being has "let you in" to their life & heart - totally. nothing held back and loves you unqualifiedly for what and who you are.

yeah- nmaybe that creates an "obligation" of sorts to treat them with compassion- that's about it. just respect their heart - do your best to be kind. real scary! what is so scary? .

what the heck is such a burden about feeling like someone is open to you to such an extent that your happiness increases theirs? and your sorrow makes them weep for you?

i'd think your millstone sounds like something my h would say- i'm just weighing in from the other side .

i'd say (cheesily so) that it's selfless maybe
