    The line; "You've got to love me for what I am for simply being me" hits a core in my heart because it is so rare to find someone who can love and accept you for who you truly are

      HANNAH, I truly hope that you find a true love, a person put on this Earth to love you totally and completely. I was one of the lucky ones. My husband and I met 37 years ago and fell in love that night. I'd never believed in love at first sight until then. We've been married for 32 years, parents to 2 adult sons now.
      We've needed to grow and change together, to respect each others Ambitions, hopes and dreams and support each other through the good times and the bad. We love each other even more now, we have been truly Blessed in Love!
      Good people exist but you're right, they're hard to find!!. When you do find ' the One' Love and Trust fiercely with everything you are and have!!! I pray you find that Special someone who will do the same for you, Blessings upon you.

    I used to listen to this song throughout my childhood as my father loves to listen and collect CDS when he was still alive. The young version of me seems to like the melody, but growing up, and knowing the lyrics of this masterpiece hits differently. I'm a people pleaser, trying to be someone that I'm not just to fit in and to be liked by many people. But through this song, I realized how important I am; that I shouldn't be defined by what other people may think about me, that I should care less because at the end of the day, I only have myself that I should worry about.

    The lyric is perfection. I was in that place, I did not meet expectations. I knew I should let go but it was very hard for me, too. If I've never been in that situation, I would never know how it felt. I learned something, love can be so painful.

    Listening to this right night with tears, we broke up because I wanted to be loved for who and what I am, so I asked him if I had to be what he wanted me to be just to claim that I was ideal for him, and he replied yes, and it shattered my heart, so I sent him this song, but he just let me go and freed me right away:((.

      @jeanmaecanete5341 Před 2 lety +7

      Its okay that he left you because if he really loves you, he will accept who really you are! You can find someone who will love you, who will accept for being who and what you are, your flaws and so on. Don't settle for less! You are not just a stone that will throw anywhere, you are a stone that should be taking care of. Godbless you!

      Love isn't just about being happy it's more than that, remember love is not self-seeking, if you're in a relationship just for fun or your own happiness then something in your values needs to be changed.

  • @sgaf7001
    @sgaf7001 Před rokem +3

    Some people are just in love with the idea of dating someone like this in a place like that in a certain situation they imagined and sometimes, you are just the person available at that time. I think you can feel how different it is, I did. As much as I want to be appreciated, I won't claim such a thing as love.

    I compromise with the person i love.. We will meet half way and given it will be for the betterment of our relationship. What we should master is how to look for signs
    with a toxic partner. I read a lot of books, i listened to a lot of testimonials coming from different point of views and from there i listed the things or traits that are negotiable and non negotiable to me. At the end of the day it is still my decision to make. It saves me lot of heartaches and time.

    We fell in love
    On the first night that we met
    Together we've been happy
    I have very few regrets
    The ordinary problems
    Have not been hard to face
    But lately little changes
    Have been slowly taking place
    You're always finding something
    Is wrong in what I do
    But you can't rearrange my life
    Because it pleases you
    You've got to love me for what I am
    For simply being me
    Don't love me for what you intend
    Or hope that I will be
    And if you're only using me
    To feed your fantasy
    You're really not in love
    So let me go, I must be free
    If what you want
    Isn't natural for me
    I won't pretend to keep you
    What I am I have to be
    The picture of perfection
    Is only in your mind
    For all your expectations
    Love can never be designed
    We either take each other
    For everything we are
    Or leave the life we've made behind
    And make another start
    You've got to love me for what I am
    For simply being me
    Don't love me if what you intend
    Or hope that I will be
    And if you're only using me
    To feed your fantasy
    You're really not in love
    So let me go, I must be free
    And if you're only using me
    To feed your fantasy
    You're really not in love
    So let me go, I must be free
    You're really not in love
    So let me go, I must be free

      I used listen to Carpenters alot when I was younger but appreciated it more when my children were born and I played them alot again and my children mastered the lyrics and tunes and they sing them just as better. This particular song, "Love me for what I am" I know the lyrics by heart and song it alot when I'm alone. June Elizabeth Iewago. PNG POM 2nd Mar 2023.
