Summary/Abstract: Love is always an inspiring topic. The problem, however, starts when it comes to talk to about it presenting its more challenging side. It is not only the possession of something, but also a stripping. It is not only the ability to heroic deeds, but also helplessness. It is not only a word but also silence. Finally it is not an evidence of someone’s presence, but also the hardest moment of experienced loneliness. The author in the presented article talks about the „other” side of love, wondering if this approach does not involve pedagogical inspirations.
