"Having 'feelings' for someone or 'liking' someone is not love, it is not a part of love, it is a part of attachment. Attachment is a part of fear, it is the belief that love is conditioned upon something that someone represents, whether that be an identity or a way of being treated, when I use that representation to increase or decrease my worthiness of love in comparison to it, I perceive loss. That loss is the self-condemnation that comes from a foundation that already believes it is worthless, an innocent loss of an understanding that I already am love, that without that comparison it is not something I can lose or gain, but that I am it."
