Love You But Don't Like You by Barbara Goodhew

I love you for your humour,
I don't like you for your inconsideration.
I love you for your understanding.

I don't like you for your disrespect of others.
I love you for your caring.
I don't like you for your self-centeredness.
I may not like what you do, but

I LOVE WHO YOU ARE.

True
We sometimes forget that love and like are two seperate emotions. You can love someone ... but not like them.

I loved it!
Yes, it is very true. You can love someone but not like them and vice-versa.Thanks for sharing :)

I agree
Sometimes it's hard to separate people's negative or even cruel actions from who they are as a whole. Great message, Barb.
