Yes, even much more: to sacri\u00adfice ones\u00adelf for them, even if this ent\u00adails dis\u00adad\u00advan\u00adta\u00adges. The name of this form of love is \u201caga\u00adpe\u201d. Admit\u00adted\u00adly: It\u2019s not exact\u00adly my strong point. Loving someone just like that and inves\u00adt\u00ading in them again and again, even though I get not\u00adhing in return? Let\u2019s be honest: don\u2019t we all expect some\u00adthing in return? And if it\u2019s just an \u201cI love you too\u201d? Then why does this form of love even exist if no one seems to be able to ful\u00adfill it? Becau\u00adse the\u00adre is someone who has exem\u00adpli\u00adfied this love.
