"I wanted you to love me the way I loved you. But that kind of love is no good. My kind of love is only meant for me to give." -Calandria Davis
I was once told that loving too hard was a fatal love. Even worse was the statement came from someone I had loved ridiculously. Imagine the dilemma of not wanting to accept that such a thing existed, this concept of "loving too hard" but having the one you had fell so remorselessly for tell that very thing. It's not an easy pill to swallow and in my opinion you shouldn't try. Loving too hard is NOT a fault or flaw of yours, in fact, it is of theirs.
The way we express our feelings is ultimately determined by our personality. This "love personality" is built by our past experiences and well as in-bred traits. Some are very vocal and passionate while others are subtle and intimate. We are all familiar with the Bible verses from 1 Corinthian 13:4-8; "Love is patient, love is kind, it does not boast, it is not proud." If we take it into context, these verses are instructions on how to love no matter your personality type. In particular, verse 8 starts "Love never fails", and this, for me, is where the loving hard comes in. Even when the object of your affection is no longer deserving, anything less than your all seems like an injustice.
