But again this is to make a presumption about the manner in which it speaks about something.

Metaphor is a very heavily used thing in love language. It can include some things that would be nonsense if taken literally, or would invite silly questions that miss the point.

Are you saying everything has to be taken as metaphor or does God do a good enough job of letting us know when it is metaphor vs. literal?
