Kovod, she’ar kesus ve’onah, vesimach ea ishto….those are mitzvos. If you find something”megunah” and have a distaste for her, the gemara says that’s a violation of ve’ahavta lereacha kamocha, but where does it say it’s a mitzvah to love your wife? People are likewise “astounded” to learn that there’s no mitzvah to love one’s parents….a loveless marriage isn’t fun. It isn’t healthy, but where does it say it’s an aveirah?
