It takes a long time to truly get to know someone even if love at first encounter is felt.

Matters of the heart require patience and due diligence.  

The fact that genuine intention exists should be enough just as emotional and soulful intelligence.

Trust takes time to be earned.  
Loyalty is an admiral gift to offer but is to be reserved for the few that have been selected.

Walk through fire for those that walk for you and do it with careful choosing.
