When she loves you, but not how you want to

 She says Pablo Alboran Perodname

He answers with Pablo Alborán - Si hubieras querido 

I spent 17.5 years thinking I failed because she didn't love me. Because she didn't love me how I dreamed I wanted to be loved. 

But even after she made it (painfully) clear I wasn't to be the father of her children, she still wanted to be around me. She still wanted to make me better, as I also wanted the same for her, to make her be the best version of herself possible. 

What is love if it's not wanting all the best for the other person? If love is being so altruistic that the other person's happiness comes before yours, that you are happy they have found their better half, then it was love. It wasn't what I wanted, but she was honestly happy for me and I was happy for her, than that makes it love.
