often than not, have nothing but friendship for us.
Contexte
This is a line I will use as introduction in my article about love.
Hope you could help me. I will send this again because I don't know if
I was able to successfully confirm my request (since the page was in
french and I didn't understand the directions).
Traduction
Beaucoup d'entre nous passent un temps considérable et beaucoup d'énergie
à entretenir notre affection, à garder la flamme pour des êtres chères qui,
dans la plupart des cas ne ressentent que de l'amitiée pour nous.
