That is not about love at all; it is about ownership.
That's a stalker.

You can love someone too much.

I have seen people who love someone so much they endure abuse.

We all have to be encouraging to these ones that are blinded by "love." Well, it's not love at all, it's a state of infatuation. The thought of being in love but not really getting it right.

Like jumping in the boat and drifting off. Sometimes it's best to test out the boat with one foot in and one foot on shore first. Nothing like pushing off and seeing a large hole in the boat after you head off.

Clingly and needy is not good.But in my own opinion I doubt if I could ever love my bf too much or my two sons too much.


I'm the woman I am today because I was loved alot.I thrive on love and enjoy giving and recieving.I couldn't think of a better gift.

I can't see how this applies to your friends, even with the xtra info, it doesn't seem to fit. The person who said this could be wrong, but Its meaning will vary from person to person.

My own interpretation, the person who loves to much becomes crazy, their at an emotional disadvantage, crazy, isn't based in reality and irrational. As in crimes of passion for example.

The person in the relationship who doesn't love as much has the power position.

I believe it's one of the many reasons pl endure abuse depending on the personality and circumstance it could also make someone abusive.

I dont think it is as bad as other people have said. If anything they will be in love longer because it will take longer for his love to fade. After that maybe they will find a good medium.

It seems more a figure of speech than actual crazy, just as stupid could mean foolish.

What do you mean? Are you saying that expression "love too much" means that the guy is crazy, possesive, clingy...maybe it does. My friends say that my wife loves me too much and she is a bit clingy. Personally i prefer clingy, it is better than kinda "loving" someone. Where do you draw the line?

No, not what I meant," love to much" doesn't mean you're crazy.
So, in this case, crazy would be a figure of speech, bc the the OP has said crazy doesn't apply to this person, but loving to much can in some cases, make someone do some crazy things.
