us women, most of us are programmed with the "stand by your man" priority from the moment we get that first crush. But in all honesty.... when it really comes down to it... do we? We're known as the bringers of drama ....the bearers of secrets... and usually known to be the product of our own self-destruction. Men aren't much different when it comes to certain things. They sabotage their lives as much as women do..... They enlist just as much drama and claim to be 'keeping' just as many secrets. Together i guess we really were made for one another...... we cheat when we're happy... we steal when we have the money to pay for it.... we lie even when the truth really isn't that bad. We as a society don't seem to have any morals left. Most of us have been scarred and broken so many times that it becomes who we are and the main factor in the choices we make. Our childhoods.. our pasts become the one thing we usually cannot shake... though some are lucky enough to overcome it. Is that what makes us, as humans, so compassionate about circumstances of the heart? We're used, beaten, and taken advantage of so many times that it makes us bitter when it comes to love but once we're 'back in the game' has us acting out and becoming slightly psycho all in the name of keeping it?? what makes us 'tick' is also what makes us who we are, right? And with that frame of thinking ..how do you ever get past your 'past' ? well.... i told you all that to get you thinking about this.......
where do you draw the line? ...what is the 'factor' within us that defines how we come to our decision?
that's exactly what i was wondering about myself.. where would i draw the line when it came down to it?.... your friend... or your man/woman.. which should take priority # 1 in your life? Or should there even have to be a choice? Do you just go with the side whose opinion you agree with.... or do you try the almost impossible and attempt to stay neutral? What happens when it all goes south and you have to make a decision....... what happens when they never seem to agree with one another and the two you love the most can't even stand to look at each other any longer? Can you deal with the strain on your heart? What course of action do you take when each constantly bashes the other whenever they're mentioned..? Who has the power within your heart? No matter how much it hurts.. there's only one who will win, in your eyes. How do you make your choice? What pros and cons do you even look for?
Will it be your friend who has been there through the good and the very difficult.... or will it be with your man/woman that means the world to you and seems to effortlessly hold the key to all your happiness within the palm of his/her hand? Or will you pull the ostrich bit... and hide and deny the obvious until they make the choice for you and you're only left with one.. ?
.....just wondering how well you know yourself.....
