In a famous Hasidic story, a rabbi asks his disciple: “Do you love me?”
To which the disciple replies: “Of course I love you!”
The rabbi continues. “Do you know what causes me pain?” he asks.
“Rabbi, how can I know what causes you pain?”
To which the rabbi responds: “If you do not know what causes me pain, how can you say that you love me?”
(from Rabbi Jeffrey K. Salkin)
