    Does not mean the person will tell you the other's name, but "who you are"

    as a person......a lot can be said about someone based on those who love

    that person as there must be some wonderful qualities, on the flip side, if

    no one loves a person, true or not, that is telling as well.

    You can absolutely tell a person's character and soul

    by who they love and follow.

    If a killer admires a person they must have did something to get the killer

    to love them..Very likely its a crime..

    If Jesus or a gentle preacher loves a person,their qualities

    usually are good.
