What is the greatest obstacle in love?

Some people say status. In olden times, people of a high status in society could not marry peasants, no matter the depth of love. So they eloped. Some people say gender. Though there are more heterosexual marriages, there are still homosexuals that want to get married, but countries ban it. Some people say religion. In certain religions, one has to convert to the religion in order to be "allowed" to marry one's significant other. Some people say it's love itself.

You know, suffering in pain is one thing, but suffering for love is another altogether. There's a taste, a sweetness to it, under the bitter layers of emotion, the numbing arguments, the jade-green jealousy, the salty tears. This might sound masochistic, but I kind of like suffering for love.

Secretly.
