"I'm not telling my wife," Any man who says that is likely not worth it: greedy; they'll take what they can from you and retreat to what they know when it all becomes too much for them.
What he failed to explain was how few people would bother face the fear of falling in love, how they would hold back and hold back and hold back until finally, in cowardice, lose their mind and flee to be free. Also, those that don't love easily sometimes do that out of respect; while those that do often offer a lazy love that has little worth beyond the sparkle of the word itself. For some, the word 'love' is little more than an excuse for bad behaviour. That's not something bold and glorious to be admired.
