Can you love too much?

Is it possible to love your partner so much that it acually can be overwhelming and in fact too much. I think so, my best friend does not. I think it is possible to over crowd someone, you care for them so much that you never want to be without them, but everyone needs their space. I know that even in a relationship, I need alone time, time when I can be with my friends, and then us time. I can't be in a relationship where every minute of everyday has to be filled with that person. What do you think?

I think im one who loves too much... I mean yah, why not? Everyone can love anyone too much, but its whether the other partner reciprocate ur love anot... Meaning, u can love them so much, but how much will they love u back? I noe loving someone wholeheartedly is possible, but isnt it saddening? If u do not noe how much that person loves u? I have been hurt in love, but everytime i give my very best... =( I guess i dun wanna be in a relationship whereby my everyday every minute every second is filled with my partner as well... But i guess i want him to be on my mind and side constantly... I mean yah, sometimes we just need some time to think of each other... Letting ur partner miss u is something good too... But of coz, i guess a relaionship is like flying a kite... Learn to let go and pull back at the right time... If u let it too loose, it might never come back to u... If u dun let it loose at all, the string might snapped anytime... Sounds like a time bomb yah... =)

i agree with jillhill here.. theres a thick line between being loving n protective n obssesive if ppl cant realise that...then its also their head that thicker than that line....u need to giv space...let them b alone so that wen they see u again they fell happy to see u...n not bored of seeing u all the time...

That would be known as an obsession, not love. And being in anyone's face too much can drive them away. You can crowd someone so much that it chokes the love they feel for you. Everyone needs their own space once in a while.

i see your point, but you have to realize that the person with the obsession doesn't see it as such. I had this happen to me, and he wold keep telling me "oh you just don't understand how much I love you", not realizing that he was scaring me. So you are very right !
