Do you think love requires sacrifice?
Absolutely. Not a full sacrifice as in "give up part of yourself", but small sacrifices regularly.
I'd say compromise and clear communication. Sacrifice is a negative connotation.
Uncompromising sacrifice. Sacrifice you would never have imagined you would have needed to take.
Love requires solving a new constraint optimization problem. Resources are limited, but you’ve decided to play coop so your original life function has to shift to include their life function too. The new solution likely results in less of one variable to gain more of another.
I don’t think love necessarily requires sacrifice but love facilitates sacrifice. There’s a Bayes theorem ting going on where sacrifice is more frequent in loving relationships than in other kinds of relationship.
everyone has ego, some big, some small. To love someone, means you are 'following' someone's ego or to die for yourself (crush your own ego). So if that's what you call what sacrifice is, then it is a 'sacrifice'. But from the ego perspective, you are actually gaining. but wat do i know?
Super hard question One one hand love is free to give and can enrich your life (anti-sacrifice) On another, it’s surrender With one’s children, parenthood entails a degree of submission to the crude determinism of biology and the randomness of fate
i'd say it makes it easy. whether it would be required depends on a ton of other things outside of one's control
