My secret, btw, is that I love unabashedly. If we've had enough positive interactions that I consider you my friend, I would say that I love you.
Whenever I meet up with someone and we hang out for the weekend, I try to tell them I love them. And I mean it every time.
The pain of losing the people you love stings, yes, but the more love you have in your life, that sting won't stick around as long.
