You can't love someone without admiring that person, can you? Certainly not. The desire to be together and share, any experience, arises from the admiration for that person, his personality, his charisma, his way of looking and life and even the way to go together through those storms and crises that plague any couple. And needless to say about the sexual area, this admiration needs to exist first of all. And the distance? Distance does to love what the wind does to fire: it extinguishes the small, it inflames the great. Just to make it clear .. Ignites the big one. Admiration and respect where it all begins. Without admiring the other, there is no way to respect him, no way to love him. And that is not me, but I paraphrase Plato. Thanks for the time we were together.
