No. Not just no but hell no!

"Do as I say and we will get along fine"

That is selfish. That is disrespectful. That is self centered. That is cowardly. That is controling. That is the line every abused woman lives.

What is love? Love is selfless. Love is giving. Love is patient. Love never says "if you don't do as I say...". Love is the complete surrender of the heart, guaranteeing an equal return. Love is putting your wants and needs behind the wants and needs of the one you love. And when you think about it, that's the complete opposite of the given statement.
