Questions around a quote on ❤️ by James Baldwin.

There's another question. Should we really do that? Treat a romantic partner like the way that we interact and love them? Should we treat other people with that same kind of love? There are the different greek terms for different types of love. Arrows

But I do think that I can and have and do love people deeply in the way that you described of to their very being loving them.
