The quote says that when you care too much it might be love. I just posted it because Winnie the Pooh is great. I don’t necessarily agree though. Some people care too much and it is unreasonable. Of course you have to give some importance to care too much as you said, but this can be unhealthy. I can be infatuation, obsession… So many things, not necessarily love. Of course the quote is probably intended to be read more simply…. Also, just because someone does give a lot of importance to someone doesn’t mean the other doesn’t reciprocate! That is when it is love in it’s best form. I am not sure I agree with the concept of loving someone truly when the person does not reciprocate. I think only God can have this pure form of love, but for humans if it is not materialized then it isn’t completely fulfilled. But that is just my thought on it. Lol. I feel like I wrote a dissertation on the Winnie the pooh quote. Good stuff. I would like to hear more of your opinion because I didn’t understand your last comment probably.
Well my point is, Winnie the Pooh said “too much care is called love” but actually when people start caring for someone too much other person find it unreasonable or unhealthy and consider it as infatuation, obsession instead of love!! π
I completely agree with your opinion that God’s love is the purest. But, at the same time I don’t agree that human love is always materialized. Also, here I want to know your definition of materialized. When you love someone truly, you find enough satisfaction in caring him/her that you don’t care whether other person reciprocate or not. This is just my thought, many people may not agree with it!!
That is true, that you can care about someone without it being reciprocated, but I was specifying here romantic love. By materialized I mean that it is or was reciprocated, developed and nurtured at one point or continually and systematically (to use a weird legal term). Someone can fall in love, be in a relationship and then, let us say the person leaves. That person can still say they love that person, but even then, the person changes, and as time goes by those two no longer even know each other. When years go by, the person just retains this image of what they knew, which is no longer accurate, therefore I don’t think that is romantic love anymore. You may still care about the person, but it is different. It is complicated to explain. I just don’t believe what society tries to romanticize.
I was talking about general situation. The example you gave is very specific with lots of “if” in it :p
If one person leaves
If person change after time
If the person still love other in same way …. if, if, if …. Lol
I was just saying that when you love someone you care about them a lot no matter if they not reciprocate or if they change with time or if they are far away from you. Because if you love them truly then the satisfaction you feel even by small things is countless. The only problem is that most of times the person you care for never realized that !!!
And yeh, love is always complicated to explain π
I have nothing more to say about Winnie the Pooh. Lol. If the person doesn’t know, then either a) if it is God’s will tell them or b) maybe it isn’t meant to be so some things are better left unsaid and not stirred. That is all I can really say. To be honest, usually it is not God’s will and more harm is done in telling the person (if it is a romantic interest). It can make things really awkward. I don’t know; things take a certain maturity and wisdom, what can I say, I am no expert in this. I am no Winnie the Pooh philosopher, so I guess that is all I have to say….
That’s true! But “When you give lots of importance to someone in your life, you lose your importance in their life!”
I don’t think that is always necessarily the case. I guess the key is to not give unreasonable importance to someone.

Might be … but you can’t care too much unless you give enough importance to someone.
