settling down...but not settling...

what does it mean to settle?

does it mean that i accept things from you just because i don't want to lose you? does it mean that i expect less from you than i would from another person just because you tolerate me? does it mean that i take your brand of acceptance and call it love? does it mean that i allow you to abuse my loyalty just so that i am not alone?

it certainly could mean one or all of these things...but if i don't recognize it as settling...it's not settling then...is it?
