Quote

Love allows your beloved the freedom to be unlike you. Attachment asks for conformity to your needs and desires. Love imposes no demands. Attachment expresses an overwhelming demand - Make me feel whole. Love expands beyond the limits of two people. Attachment tries to exclude everything but two people.
