Malicious Love?

Something happened to me today. Although my posts and my personality are usually both candid and transparent. Today, I choose to use discretion in disclosing the events that took place this morning. What will I will focus on is the intent that was supposedly conveyed by the act. So I pose the question: Is there a such thing as malicious love? The answers is clear, but lets explore the possible events, emotions, and circumstances that could possibly lead to someone to display this "malicious love".

Many of us have been in relationships that for whatever reason did not end in the fairytale that we initially thought it would lead to, instead it ended in sore hearts, hurt feelings, tears, and unfortunately in some cases destruction or defamation of property, lost income and mutual relationships, the hospital, court, jail, or worse. Is it the infatuation phase that fogs the frontal lobe from deducing that this person is "not for you" despite the parade of red flags. warning signs, and stop signs jumping out in your path as you continue to move forward with this person? Is is the passion that the two of you share that "only he/she can do" to you?

Is it the bling bling (throwback), material things, or physical attributes that this person has which makes you feel you have "a prize" despite how they treat you or if the relationship is even working? Or let's say you two were great together...for awhile....but then......___________ happened. That blank be filled in with a change in employment status for either party, gain or loss of money, gain or loss of health, a third parties interference, bills, stress, anything. Why does the beauty of two people who care for each other ever have to end? Why should external events affect your happy home if the two of you have vowed to be there for each other no matter what? Is it that they don't know how to not let external events and people affect out happy home? Is it because he/she was raised by a single parent so he/she does not know what it means to stay together no matter what?

Enough exploration of the possibilities of the could lead to love turning from beautiful to malicious. The truth is the list is endless as to all the things that can lead to a relationship ending badly. Love should NEVER be malicious. If its malicious, its not love. Love is good, and good for you. If you ever find yourself in a situation where you feel used, threatened, or mistreated and they are insistent that they love you. Do not believe it. Needless to say if the person destroys your belongings or destructs your property then you should end it. Remember, we were put here in God's image. HE would not want you treated that way. Accept that the person who is doing to you is confused and has some issues they need to deal with, without your help. Confide in friends and family who love you. If this person is truly harmful to you, your friends and family have probably been trying to get you to leave this person anyway. Love yourself. Talk to the people who really care for you and want to see you happy and healthy. They will help you through this time in your life. I did and I thank them every time I think of where I could have been had I note reached out for their help.
