When we love someone - is there a rule?When we love someone - we want their love in return - does anything make us happier? If they put the toothpaste back - does that mean they love us?If they pick up their mess, does that mean they love us?If they fix what they broke, does that mean that they love us?If they remember our birthday, does that mean they love us - if they follow every rule of the house, does that mean they love us? But, if they break every rule of the house --and they lift up their arms and say, "Mommy. I love you."And they want to be held...does a rule matter?Best regards, Miss Hepburn

Love is to act, move in harmony with His Spirit.Romans 7:2 ESV For a married woman is bound by law to her husband while he lives, but if her husband dies she is released from the law of marriage.Romans 7:3 ESV Accordingly, she will be called an adulteress if she lives with another man while her husband is alive. But if her husband dies, she is free from that law, and if she marries another man she is not an adulteress.Romans 7:4 ESV Likewise, my brothers, you also have died to the law through the body of Christ, so that you may belong to another, to him who has been raised from the dead, in order that we may bear fruit for God.Romans 7:5 ESV For while we were living in the flesh, our sinful passions, aroused by the law, were at work in our members to bear fruit for death.Romans 7:6 ESV But now we are released from the law, having died to that which held us captive, so that we serve in the new way of the Spirit and not in the old way of the written code.See also Romans Chapter 7, 2 Corinthians Chapter 3 and Galatians Chapter 3. They all pertain to rules or laws which are not necessary.Matthew 10:37 ESV Whoever loves father or mother more than me is not worthy of me, and whoever loves son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me.

Women always confuse love with toothpasteMen do not.When a man loves a woman it is solid, he never questions it. Women always question it. Men find this puzzling.He is taken aback when she wants proof. He does not equate putting the toothpaste back with his love for her. He finds these things frivolous compared to the deep seated love he knows he has for her.But he may put the toothpaste back during the long and complicated and impossible journey trying to figure out women.He has also figured out that buying flowers and remembering to mouth the words "I love you" on a regular basis keeps her happy until the next round of doubts pop up in her mind.Women need to realize that a thousand men putting toothpaste away is no big deal to the man , a thousand trips to the flower shop is not all that hard for a man to do. But getting the woman to simply believe that they love them completely ....... that is hard. Just ask us. :)

Martin, dear, this is just for you. :HER DIARYTonight, I thought my husband was acting weird. We had made plans tomeet at a bar to have a drink. I was shopping with my friends all daylong, so I thought he was upset at the fact that I was a bit late, buthe made no comment on it.Conversation wasn't flowing, so I suggested that we go somewhere quietso we could talk. He agreed, but he didn't say much. I asked him whatwas wrong.. He said, 'Nothing.' I asked him if it was my fault thathe was upset. He said he wasn't upset, that it had nothing to do withme, and not to worry about it.On the way home, I told him that I loved him. He smiled slightly, andkept driving. I can't explain his behavior. I don't know why hedidn't say, 'I love you, too.' When we got home, I felt as if I hadlost him completely, as if he wanted nothing to do with me anymore.He just sat there quietly, and watched TV. He continued to seemdistant and absent.Finally, with silence all around us, I decided to go to bed. About 15minutes later, he came to bed. To my surprise, he responded to mycaress, and we made love. But I still felt that he was distracted,and his thoughts were somewhere else. He fell asleep -I cried. Idon't know what to do. I'm almost sure that his thoughts are withsomeone else. My life is a disaster.HIS DIARYMy Snowmobile wouldn't start today, but at least I had sex.

I loved your post. It is so true.Never worry about your man if he is quiet and distant. We do that at times. Later we might even tell you what is on our mind. It will not have anything to do with love. We want to buy a Hummer or something.But if your man becomes more alive than usual , more bounce in his walk , renewed glimmer in his eyes , showers you with some little niceties , and then runs out to meet with the guy's ............. he is having an affair for sure.Or he is planning a surprise ''Carribean cruise'' with you and has to meet with his buddy who is the travel agent.

"Being in love shows a person who he should be"Being in love with humans brings out your natural abilities, being in love with God (God as he really is, according to his word) brings out his spiritual abilities too.
