Books about falling in love? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

Hey y'all. I'm in a precarious situation right now. Yes, I am falling in love with someone and I want to approach this in a faithful way. My previous relationships included me putting the other person above everything basically, but I want to put God in the first place this time. It's probably healthier this way. Any Christian books about phenomenology of love or falling in love that you know of?

So, God not being real is the reason he's being a dick to religious people for no reason? I'll stick to God then so I don't do the same

I think it's more nuanced than that. Religionists are pushing their beliefs on other people on many fronts. (Not you, per se.) It's been happening for thousands of years, and non-believers are tired of it.

Stumbling into a true believer in an otherwise very secular online forum (Lemmy) is a painful reminder that true believers exist and support the machine.

@CrayonRosary @LucidBoi I mean clearly if the non-believers were tired of people pushing their beliefs on other people, they wouldn't be brigading a Catholic community.

Brigading. Funny. It was a post I found while browsing "Everything", and I simply answered their questions.

Where am I being a dick to religious people? I was posing a possible answer to your question. I did not even downvote your post.

Then in good faith I believe that no, it's not because of the boogeyman.
