I've never heard of this before, and I agree that it's disturbing. Where did you hear it? It's pretty debatable as to what the vague concept of "loving more" would even mean, but it should go without saying that it needs to be mutual between too people for it to work.
This is kind of a weird concept to me also.
I guess early on, sometimes one person may be more into the other person than the person is into them.
But sometimes people play it cool. So it is hard to tell.
And it is all a bit subjective anyway.
I think if one person is more in love with the other person, and the other person notices it, or friends or family notice it, then I would bet the relationship is unbalanced and will most likely fail.
Usually the feeling are either mutual and both people are happy, or one person is not as interested/losing interest, and those are early signs of a breakdown/failure in the relationship.

The person that is head over heels in love rarely sees signs of breakdown.

Successful relationships that survive are difficult enough when both parties love, admire, desire each other equally. Why through something sad (that almost sounds like a tragic unrequited love) into the mix?
I couldn't be with a guy on those terms. I'd feel too guilty, even though my only "crime" would be lack of interest towards him.
There is a metric for interest though, especially when you read a thread about how a person wants a cheater back...
I hear you on wanting someone back ... Even if they betrayed you. But I don't know if love can be measured. I was being a little tongue in cheek on the metric but some smart sociologist may have something. My experience is that the more you love someone the harder it is get over them and the longer it takes. Sounds obvious but maybe there is a measure in there somewhere.
Typically women have more options so I think its more critical that the woman love the man more otherwise whats stopping her from dumping him and moving on or cheating on him. Sure guys do it to but I think its alot harder for guys to do that sort of thing unless they are in the upper 5% of men. If a woman is not really really into me then why take the risk that you will be together for a year or so and then dumps you because she is getting hit on everywhere she goes.
I always found this concept disturbing. I think at least at first it must be a mutual, pretty much even attraction. Possibly even the woman loving the man more (but we don't need to over do it with clinginess and making him the whole world when we hardly know him.) As time goes on, maybe 5-10 years in, I think it's then ok for the man to love the woman more. Does anyone agree with the "better for the man to love the woman more" and if so, WHEN is this best started?
On the other hand, there's also the saying - and song - that says: To live a happy life, marry an ugly wife.
LMAO!!!!!!!!! Awesome! Not that I agree with it. But it sure is worth it's weight in a laugh.
This must be some Taoist saying? Sounds like something East Asian men might say. And not a king but a rural surf. He doesn't want the king and noblemen boinking his wife one night every week and twice on Asian Moon festival. LOL.
