In the name of love, we are willing to do much. We forgive a lot, we suffer a lot, we cry a lot, we laugh a lot. We close roads and open others. We take revenge. We're sorry. In her name, we say that in love and war everything is allowed.

And we almost don't even dare take her name in the desert. Still, for the noble purpose of love, we seek excuses for our weaknesses, we accept to make premeditated mistakes, we let reason go crazy, our feelings act in our place and we make decisions that we do not understand.

We are wrong because we love. But should the damned be condemned to love? Maybe only by those who did not love. But there are certain things you should not do even if you love too much.

Not for the sake of the one you love or those around you, but for your sake. Because somehow, when everything (including LOVE) has calmed down, in the moment of maximum sincerity with you, you will ask yourself the question: "Would I do this again?" And, lost and sad, you don't know what to answer.

Don't let him fool you just because you love him. Don't be silent if your partner cheated on you, cheated on you, and will cheat on you again. Don't pretend you don't know just for fear of losing it.

Do not close your eyes to betrayal knowing that he will return to you or that there will be a time for revenge. No one and nothing, neither he nor his love, should deprive you of the right to love yourself. As long as you offer loyalty, you deserve it too.

Don't give up on him for his sake. Addictive love is nothing but pseudo-love or destructive love. For the sake of your loved one, start and destroy yourself. Beautiful, slow, careful, and safe! With malice towards his person, with pity and sympathy for the person next to him.

It is normal to want to do everything humanly possible for your loved one. But not the impossible. Don't give up on all your dreams just to make them come true. Don't live just because he lives. Don't make his passions the things that delight you the most. Don't try to breathe the air he is breathing because you will suffocate. There is space in true love. Freedom can be lived in two.

You don't want to die because he doesn't want to live next to you anymore. There were times when you wanted to give up your life because it couldn't be yours anymore. Think well? Is it worth it?

Is it worth running away from life or the possibility that another great love will not ask you for such a heavy price just because you can no longer bear the suffering? In time, the pain passes. Love must create harmony and beauty, love must not create monsters and monstrosities.

Don't let him abuse you emotionally or physically. he accepts many and serious insults, criticisms are so shrill that I hear them at night. I agree to be manipulated.

I forgive him every time I get a slap. Maybe I deserve it all … "Were you startled when you heard those words? No, no woman deserves shame, fear, and silence. It is not worth allowing abuse. People deserve to be loved as they are.

Don't love on your own. Don't just love yourself. Don't just suffer. Nothing is more painful and sad than unrequited love. It is a love condemned from the beginning to non-fulfillment because love is made to be felt in two. Do not accept to become a mistress if you want to be a wife.

Try to avoid all this because love deserves to be beautiful.
