Love does not compromise to do wrong, but it inconveniences itself when needful.
When he or she loves you, they'll be willing to inconvenience themselves to provide comfort for you. If they're unwilling and always shirk from doing you such favours, it should be clear to you that you may be in a one-sided relationship where you're the only one "in love".
This, however, should not be taken to mean you should compromise on your godly values to keep a relationship that shouldn't lead to marriage.
God loves us and He inconvenienced Himself by leaving heaven to come to earth to suffer and die for our redemption and salvation.
But the great love He has for us could not make Him compromise His values and principles; rather, to uphold and maintain His values and principles, He went to the cross to pay for our sins and give us the gift of eternal life in Jesus- which now qualifies everyone that receives Jesus - to make Heaven.
So, if you love him or her, be willing to inconvenience yourself to provide what they need, but never compromise on your godly values and principles to meet their wants, needs, or requests.
"Love is never glad with sin; she's always glad to side with truth, and pleased that truth will win." 1 Corinthians 13:6 ISV
Shalom🤎
