Shout out to one of my Facebook lovelies Teresa Marie for this topic. Let's get into the subject: Anytime someone is trying to get to know someone on an intimate level, they're quick to say "I can be everything you need" It sounds good coming out of one's mouth, but can someone REALLY be everything a person needs/wants? Doubtful. I say it's doubtful because people are flawed & will disappoint you from time to time, even your (wo)man. They don't mean any harm, but we live in a sinful world and because of that, there will be times where your (wo)man will hurt you (un)intentionally. This topic reminds me of the 80/20 rule: You're going to get 80% of what you want in a relationship. If you're getting 80% of what you want, you're doing very well. The other 20% is where you and/or your mate fall short. Let's say you CAN be everything someone needs; how many of us would hold onto those kinds of people?
Even if a prospective mate could be everything a person needs, who's to say the other person would hold onto them? Most people end up taking their (wo)man for granted, and when the other person has had enough, all of a sudden (s)he has a change of heart and promises to do better by their mate. By that time, it may be too late because everyone has their breaking point, that moment where they wash their hands of their spouse and leave. A lot of people like to play hard and say "I don't care if (s)he leaves, let them go", but if they're honest, they'll regret letting someone special go. True love is rare to come by, and those who find it are blessed.
