"You think you love someone until..
*They're vomiting in a hospital bed and you're the one cleaning up the mess, and holding their hand through the pain
*They're in a coma and you're the one holding their hand, talking to them, and praying for their recovery
*Their business is failing and you're the one standing by them, offering words of encouragement, and helping them pick up the pieces
*They're crying and you're the one holding them together, whispering words of comfort
*They're struggling with mental health and you're the one holding space for them, listening to them, and reminding them they're not alone
*They're making mistakes, poor choices, and hurting themselves, and you're the one picking up the pieces and helping them get back on their feet
*They're at their worst, most unlovable, and most broken, and you're the one showing them love, kindness, and compassion
*They're feeling lost, alone, and hopeless, and you're the one shining a light, offering guidance, and reminding them of their strength
*They're facing their fears, insecurities, and doubts, and you're the one holding their hand, offering support, and cheering them on
You think you love someone until life gets messy, complicated, and hard. Until they're no longer the person you thought they were, but someone more complex, more human, and more beautiful.
But true love is being there for them, no matter what. It's loving them through the good times and the bad, through the triumphs and the failures, and through the messy, imperfect moments.
True love is choosing to love someone, not just when it's easy, but when it's hard. Not just when they're at their best, but when they're at their worst. Not just when they're lovable, but when they're unlovable.
True love is not just a feeling, it's a choice. It's being there for them, no matter what, and loving them for who they are, not who you want them to be. 💕"
