When we are playing checkers and he's on a roll, he'll subconsciously say: "Maneh! Nobnala, nobumala, jarrut hullor.” lol
This makes me laugh, but he's right. There should be no compulsion in love, because it's a thing of the heart, or emotion if you like. However, your desire to stay in love with someone will not happen without the desire to comply with the accompanying obligations of loving that someone, including but not limited to regard for that person's wants.
Loving is the same as it is about religion: “There shall be no compulsion in [acceptance of] the religion,” but then, once you accept, there are regulations that you must conform to, otherwise you cannot call yourself a true believer. I guess this is why most marriages of today don’t last beyond the breakfast after honeymoon, because we want to be loved, but don't want to be lovers.
