The only people that love you are the people who have to.

Lately, I've been studying the novel Great Expectations ( exciting I know) On the surroundings and the characters in this novel. During the annotating process of the novel on the first chapter one thing that came up was "the only people that love you are the people who have to" there was just something about this quotation that I really loved and agreed with.

You're family love you unconditionally because they have to, you are a part of them they can't help but love you with everything they have.
 It's like for example when you ask your mam if you look okay and she tells you you are the most beautiful thing she has ever seen when in reality you look like you've been dragged through a hedge backwards a couple of times. Or when your nana asks if you have a boyfriend yet and you always reply with a no, she looks shocked and tuts and tells you boys must like you, they are just to scared to say it to you! and all you can do is just stare at her in disbelief because you know no one does like you. But of course she will do that, and say all them things because she is your family and in her eyes you will always look beautiful and you can never do no wrong.

It's the same situation with your friends. Some people, like myself, consider my friends my family. The people that would risk it all just to make sure I'm okay, and I'm like that towards them. I can't help but love them unconditionally. My head doesn't tell me I have to love them. My heart forces me to.

The only people who love you are the people Who have to.
