Your entry title is deceptive and had me hooked until I got to the end of your post and realized it was the opposite of what I was thinking when I began reading it.

Your “Strollmate” insight is spot on!

“… But I think that is what love is. Endurance, quiet and unquiet companionship, respectful spaces and the ability to weave mercy into a cover for each other. You know, a strollmate. That’s my definition of a soulmate. …”

Upon reflection I need to update how I began this comment…

Love is like strolling
Sometimes you only notice it
Once the walking stops

SubhanAllah, I miss my strollmate.

What is love, or rather, what does it mean to feel love, to be loved, to be in love? Quite simply, I have come to a realization, that it doesn't matter how much someone, or someones love you, but we all have to love ourselves first. When we have this confidence in ourselves, we can open ourselves to others. I have fumbled around in my mind the very same question which you have posed here.
