Which are the greatest barriers to loving other people?

Answer 1

Lack of trust and respect.

Answer 2

one of the greatest barriers to loving other people is the thought that you are not worthy to be loved
that you are not that important or special enough, if you fail to see the point that you are loved because you are loved and that it does not have to have any reason

another thing is rejection, many people are too afraid to get rejected again, it really is too painful to be subjected to every now and then

next barrier would be if you have enjoyed being single
and have enjoyed your life so much alone that you dont think you would be able to share it with someone else

social status, other stuff can also complicate things
or if women always think that another option or another better man will come their way
high standards is not bad, but a very high almost impossible standard for a partner is a great hindrance in loving people

Answer 3

Fear is the greatest barrier.

A long time ago I thought that love was something that you reserved for some special set of people that you had judged worthy of it.

After a while I got to thinking about what Jesus had said about turning the other cheek and loving our neighbor I put the two together and realized that he had made no exceptions in these statements. It became obvious to me that he intended that we exclude no one from the love that we are supposed to be giving. I started thinking about my idea of love and suddenly realized that I had not been loving anyone at all. I had simply been judging everyone and every thing.

Judging someone worthy of love is not love, it is only judgment. I actually started to cry when I realized this. I saw just how much of my life I had wasted being judgmental, thinking of myself as a Christian, when I was actually doing just the opposite of what Jesus had asked us to do.

I thought about the verse judge not lest ye be judged, and I understood it for the first time.

I realized that I have a lot of catching up to do. So many opportunities were wasted. I now try to apply the love that I have for the world in a universal way like Jesus asks us to do.

If I start to feel afraid and think that I see someone that I should not love because of something I have thought or heard I try to catch my mistake as soon as possible. I tell myself that I have forgot the truth and have fallen for the same old trick that had cost me so many opportunities to be loving in the past. The horror of this realization is often all that is necessary to bring me back to my senses and make me drop the judgmental nonsense I was thinking.

I still have a lot to learn about love, but at least I’m making progress.
