I know, that is what I thought.
There is more than one way to love others. I love my father and mother, my whole family, my friends. But I use the love word with much more care thought, I don't tell my friends that I love them, it would somehow sound wrong. That is also depending on people and their reactions, it is not I who set the bar on what words to use, it is the people I chat/talk/discuss with.
