Being loved means; are disagreements welcome in my relationships? If you cant disagree with someone then you live in a tyranny and if you live in a tyranny then you are only loved to the degree that you erase yourself and conform to the irrational expectations of bullies. That isn’t love obviously. Now if somebody in you life demands that you not disagree with them and gets angry, “offended”, or outraged should you disagree with them then, that person is not a good person. It’s pretty narcissistic. It’s somebody who does not have the maturity, wisdom, and ego strength to handle, and in fact welcome disagreements. When people disagree with me as a whole I think it’s a great opportunity for learning. People don’t want to expose topics that might cause disagreement because, if the disagreement is punished then the illusion of being loved by good people is shattered.
