I was surfing the net yesterday and I stumbled upon a thread on the Nigerian popular forum Nairaland. Someone asked ask this question, Love Doesn't Cost A Thing (it's a lie). The question is not just a question but an answer too but does really cost a thing?  If am asked I'll reply yes , everything is not always right as it seems.
Some months ago i was battling the meaning of this same phrase, I never understood that it's the opposite so i decided to try and see if it really Priceless, I came to understand that that it's like a two side coin. Am going to analyze both side, the positive and negative.

Love Doesn't Cost A Thing ;What does it mean?.

It's an idiomatic expression which means it's priceless, it's a free gift, it's something every one can feel without having to pay an amount as large as one might have to pay to get back a king held for ransom. Even the common man can get love because it never expensive  to be loved. You love your friends, family and it's cost you nothing to have that feeling, it's just like the air we breath, you don't pay before you can breathe so it's doesn't cost a thing in that case, love don't cost a thing.

When Love Cost A Thing.

Yeah! like i said earlier, it's two side, love is a little bit expensive it's requires a lot of things like sacrificial giving. Loving someone requires actions and these actions stands inform of a prove that you really care. The creator of the universe Jehovah God is an example of love, he loves us and he showed it, he gave us only begotten son, Jesus to die for our sins. What is love without sacrificial giving, No one has a greater love than that which he or she would willingly die for their friend. ” Can you lay down your life for someone you love?. This just remind me of the soldiers that lost their lives every year just to protect others.

When you love someone so much you care about them, you will be pushed to go extra mile just to see the person happy. It's natural, you just can't help it. You sacrifice things like your time and money.


#1.Time: Spending time with your partner is a huge and compulsion. Your abandon everything else just to be with your lover just to keep your relationship alive and refreshing.


#2.Money: Love makes you sacrifice even your hard earned money, money can't buy love but money spices up the relationship “Love to be real, it must cost—it must hurt—it must empty us of self.” .


Relationship whose focus is on what they will gain in return is not classified as love , True love begins when nothing is looked for in return. The cost of love is not as important as the value.
