Another Shoe That Fits
A beautiful relationship. An unforgettable lover. A caring partner. A passionate other half. These are the qualities a person seek and expect in a bond with the person you dedicate your feelings, affection and care about.
As time passes; the way your partner treated you will eventually degrade or maintain and being keep up to be better. Underneath these sheath, there are two possibilities; possibilities that will push you to make a choice whether to stay or to leave.
For a person who experience their first ever relationship, they would devour dedication unlike being seen before because they believe putting much for their first relationship would create a turnaround that made other potentials to churn and go away. So much wrong upon their belief as heart, soul and feelings are one. Each cannot be withdrawn for the fatal of attraction. Could much they invest into the relationship, the stronger the expectation will be.
But as saying goes “When there is expectation, there would be disappointment” as our partner would not have the same equivalent effort and investment by the act of reciprocation. There, one would think, “The first relationship is where you put in everything since there is no other linkage of the past that teaches me how much enough is enough”.
The first layer is the possibility when the way your partner treat you is not same as before; and what we want to justify here is their pre-emptive to win your heart and get your attention. Gradually, after succeeded to win your heart, the effort will be not seen no more. Bland, tasteless and blunt relationship will occur and the only reason why it is still exist because the one who experienced it never want to do something about it.
The second layer is a relationship upon where two partners just do things that both; individually would think suit; and never bother the other. In other words, when both are together, the love is in the air but when separated; no attention, no calls, no text; nill. Deep inside, they still do care for each other but having the opportunity to meet other person who would tremble the feeling inside would never be seen as a threat. “Just a crush” they might say but their attention have shifted.
Taking the first and second layer together; it fuse. Thus, when another person steps in unconditionally and contact made; the person felt that they might have meet the right person all along but something stops them from running to the person; the current relationship.
The person who stepped in confessed they like you and utter dilemma begin. From the first point, you want to be loyal but that not the case. It is because you do not want to be the person who shall be blame which create a dent to the frame. The happiness has been shredded piece by piece; they might have a lot of it left but till to a certain period, it will run out.
Loyalty is an important element in a relationship apart from communication. But loyalty does not lie in faith to a person and stick with them through thick and thin but it also lie towards your partner treatment. Loyalty in treatment mean from day one till now, there is no subtraction of effort; either it is maintain or more but never be less. Loyalty is a sensitive thing that might cause you to turn heel; that made you have a bad reputation in front of the people who talks much about you.
As for the person who stepped in, you knew and you realized that they are the answer you have been looking for all this while. Your significant. Your last. Your future. But as the chain of current and the past still gripping you hard on the ankle made you feel helpless. In a point, you do not want to be look as the bad person but at the same time, you know there is a limit upon the length a person could wait as you yourself does not want to miss the chance to be happy.
In the end, a call has been made either to be happy with the current or being happy with the future that will be your last; the one who slides in the ring through your finger, a person whom you devote as they do the same and growing old with.
