“Perhaps the reason we are unable to love is that we yearn to be loved, that is, we demand something (love) from our partner instead of delivering ourselves up to him demand-free and asking for nothing but his company.” - Milan Kundera

Decryption of quote

Love is a complex and beautiful emotion that often eludes us in our relationships.

It is said that the reason we struggle to love others is because we are constantly seeking love ourselves.

We yearn for affection and validation, hoping that our partners will fulfill this need for us.

But true love requires us to give freely of ourselves, without expecting anything in return.

When we demand love from our partners, we are setting ourselves up for disappointment.

Instead, we should focus on giving love unconditionally and enjoying the company of our loved ones.

By letting go of our expectations and simply being present with our partners, we can cultivate a deeper and more meaningful connection.

Love is not about what we can get from others, but rather what we can give.

When we approach relationships with this mindset, we open ourselves up to a world of love and fulfillment.

So let go of your demands and embrace the joy of simply being with the ones you love.
