I was just thinking if its weird cuz I think i will be craving that kind of love and care from my future lover?

quickbadger-36

In a way

quickbadger-36

It might be

quickbadger-36

Although I would say it's just my personal opinion.

quickbadger-36

The kind of love shown by parent is a bit different from what your lover would offer

quickbadger-36

Simple way to put in one might be romantic and the other different I guess

quickbadger-36

Although that doesn't mean they can't offer you something similar

@quickbadger-36 Although I would say it's just my personal opinion.
wittyunicorn-87 OP

Yeah i get it, right.

@quickbadger-36 Although that doesn't mean they can't offer you something similar
wittyunicorn-87 OP

Mmhm, like the care and affection.

@wittyunicorn-87 Mmhm, like the care and affection.
quickbadger-36

Yope. But in the end they are still your lover not your parents

quickbadger-36

So don't have too much expectations

@wittyunicorn-87 But like can u point them by ur opinion? Like what could be okay and what not?
quickbadger-36

I don't know. I don't desire parental love from a lover, well kinda inexperienced in such matters

quickbadger-36

But well, I don't know,it depends on the person and what you actually want

@quickbadger-36 I don't know. I don't desire parental love from a lover, well kinda inexperienced in such matters
wittyunicorn-87 OP

Hmm makes sense

quickbadger-36

Saying parental love is like a big term

quickbadger-36

Cause sometimes their love for us doesn't even look like something we did like

quickbadger-36

But in all they still aim for what's good for us even if we don't see that yet

@quickbadger-36 But in all they still aim for what's good for us even if we don't see that yet

wittyunicorn-87 OP

quickbadger-36

Well for some people sure they would be able to do that for you since they love you

quickbadger-36

But there are those who can't though

quickbadger-36

It's not because they don't love you I guess

quickbadger-36

Maybe they don't know how to

quickbadger-36

Or they are also going through their own phase

@quickbadger-36 Maybe they don't know how to
wittyunicorn-87 OP
