Is Non attachment a superior form of loving someone?
I don't mean emotionally distant or closed off, I mean not having your entire happiness dependent on one person, and being able to freely give and expect nothing in return.
Is this the ideal way to approach a romantic relationship?

yes
remove "superior" though
>>18541662
Romantic relationship is not ideal.
Ideal form of love is love without attachment like you described. Without expectation of returns. This love, since there is no attachment, extends towards all beings.
Romantic love is purely attachment love. Ideal romantic love is pure attachment love.

Yep.
Sometimes it's tough but it hardens you.

That's not what attachment means you dunce.
How does she do that? How is she so qt.

Yes to the attachment part, but its not easy to do. You should expect a degree of fair treatment from others though. Being a martyr just wears you down. You can't make others happy if you're not also happy.

Make a fist and insert the lighter innit
Press the pedal to release the gas, wait a couple of seconds. When ready, spark a fire.
Make sure you open your palm for the flame doesn't burn you
I'm trying to say respect yourself OP, if you're giving everything to someone who gives nothing in return. It won't make you feel "superior", it will make you hate yourself.
>>18541662
How does she does that without burning herself ?
Is she a witch ?
>>18541662
no I'd rather have a codependent relationship

this post makes no sense
Imagine, not waiting helplessly for his/her call.
Imagine being happy for him/her in whatever they do
They say if you love someone you let them go. I didn't really understand why, because you were suppose to hold on tightly to the one you love. But as I grew older I realized the best love is has you holding them tightly but knowing that she/he isn't yours and that all bonds must end. Its humbling and require actualization to fully realize.

Just because you're not attached doesn't mean you're not gonna stand up to being abused.

It is superior though.
It strenghens you instead of weakling.
It frees you instead of locking you down.
it keeps you unbiased, so you can still develop on yourself without needing to fear being compromised to someone.
You are happy with wathever you do so you will have healthy relationships and are not expecting her move for you to have peace.
Its all win, all together, if youre also an honest person, and you can get to get laid with your female friends through pure honesty you wont have remorses of any type. again, its an all win win.
