“Interestingly enough, commitment tests usually only show up when a woman begins to feel that your loyalty to her is threatened.

“To love somebody is not just a strong feeling—it is a decision, it is a judgment, it is a promise. If love were only a feeling, there would be no basis for the promise to love each other forever.

― Erich Fromm, The Art of Loving
