Self-lovin kind of love

Loving someone because they believe the same thing as you, is not really love.

Earlier this morning, I was thinking about a dear friend and then a story played out.

Me and my friend hadn't seen one another in years
We are reunited
This person now does not believe in God.
Do I love her/him?
Or am I infatuated with people who believe the same core beliefs as I do?

Do I love this person for who they are?
Or how much we connect on certain issues?

If so, my love isn't pure, but a selfish kind of love.
