Some people love at full volume. If they choose you, they bring patience, consistency, and daily effort. That level of care is a privilege, not a given.
What this promise really says
- You will be seen, not just noticed.
- Your wins will be celebrated and your hard days supported.
- Effort will show up in actions, not only words.
The standard that protects wholehearted love
- Reciprocity: affection, time, and honesty flow both ways.
- Respect: boundaries are named and kept.
- Consistency: small daily proofs matter more than grand gestures.
- Accountability: mistakes are owned and repaired.
