Love Is Sacrifice — Why Marriages Fail

 

The Definition That Cuts Through the Noise

Love isn’t romance, attraction, or utility. Love is sacrifice. If you strip away the poetry, that’s the litmus test. If you’re not willing to give something up for another person, then what you’re calling “love” is just desire dressed up.

The Nature Divide

• A woman’s nature is her sexuality and her craving for attention. She wants to be desired, but not smothered. Too much affection without strength becomes annoyance.

• A man’s nature is protection and provision. He wants respect for the risks he takes and the resources he gathers. If his wife wastes those resources or creates chaos, he grows resentful.

• When either side ignores the other’s nature, irritation replaces affection.

The Transaction Problem

Sex has become nothing more than a handshake agreement — a contract of utility.

• Women crave attention, but the kind that serves their needs.

• Men crave affection, but only when it comes with respect. Without sacrifice, both sides reduce love to consumption. Desire becomes transaction.

Why Marriages Fail

Marriages collapse when one spouse tries to take more than the other is willing to give.

• If a man sacrifices protection and provision but receives only consumption, resentment builds.

• If a woman sacrifices loyalty and respect but receives only neglect, bitterness grows.

• When sacrifice is one‑sided, the covenant breaks.

Closing Riff

So ask the sharper question:

• Would a woman befriend a man who offers her no utility?

• Would a man stay with a woman who offers him no respect?

The answer reveals the truth.
