Plato wrote in the Symposium that love “tries to make one out of two and heal the wound of human nature.” 💌
To do that, it’s crucial to get off on the right foot. Pay attention — real love is not just attraction. As Plato put it, “love manifested in health is fundamentally distinct from love manifested in disease.”
How you feel in the early stages of a relationship can tell you very clearly if you’re starting in health. It’s only love if the other half is actually good for you. 🔖
