Hey Steve !
Yes some people definately have different views. i thnk the discouraging thing is that most people do not really mean what they say when they say they love someone.
You have already commented on your own thoughts
"different view "
saying " I love you " can mean different things to different people, many kinds of Love
The love is conditioned and based on what we/they have wished it would have been rather than how it has turned out. But should this be grounds for never responding again? Here the situations have very little to do with memories but rather integrity.
here again, different views, different people
you want to continue communicating, the other person does not
does not make the other person wrong, that is just their choice
unfortunate it does not agree with your preference,
that is life
life does not always go as we might wish
just an observation, seems you are in conflict at times with yourself
wanting to be in the now, yet clinging to the past
i still leave in my heart a place for them if they decide to communicate again
nice thought !
just do not let it become an obsession, wishing for things in the past, gone now, not meant to be
times change, people change
there is a time and a season for everything
trust in God, all is as it should be

apologies, I missed this part of your reply
Thru God's grace we are able to determine what to let go and what to experience within our consciousness, regardless of whether people are wth us in the body or not.
you have it under control
Om Shanti
