Love under the force of compulsion is not love, but a businesslike attachment. It is a conditional love that can easily become hatred as well.

You really must understand intent. If you intend love to be business like then it will be so. If you intend it to be hatred then so it is. I intend, I will, love to be pure and healthy, and amazing. I intend it to be wondrous and satisfying for both. I dont intend anything negative in the mix.
