What Is Love‪?‬ Taco Tuesday Theology

    • Christianity

When someone tells you that they love you, what does that person mean? What response is that person expecting? How does that person feel or react when they don’t get that expected response? Relationships are damaged and sometimes ruined when one person tells another person that they love them, and the other person doesn’t respond in kind.

I had this happen at church one time. Someone I was talking to suddenly said, “I love you,” to me as I was leaving. I smiled thinking how odd that was and tried to move on. As I walked away, she repeated it, albeit a little louder, “I love you!” I just smiled and continued walking. She was having no part of that. She came after me, grabbed my arm, swung me around to face her, “don’t you love me too?”
