In balance

Sometimes, you choose who you love. Sometimes, you choose with whom you stay. Sometimes, it's all under your control how you behave. You love them, because they are in love with you . You choose to stay with them, because they put you first. It's a nice feeling, is it not?

To feel being wanted and loved? You love the idea of them loving you. But do you ever question yourself, have you ever loved them for who they are? Regardless of their efforts, their struggles, have you taken a moment to know your concern for them? Do you love them or the way they love you?

You see, being in love with the person is very different than being in love with way of them loving you. Being in love has no expectations, no desire and it's purely selfless. You love them, because you want to. There is no peer pressure, no demands, no expectations and no disappointment. Loving the way of being loved comes with lot of expectations, demands and it also brings a lot of disappointment. You are not patient enough to understand them. You don't have time to go through their problems. It's only about you and always about your misery. You are always complaining, demanding and that my friend will never give you peace. You might be with the one who loves you the most but my dear, if you don't feel the same way, it will never blossom.

The statement ' Be with one who loves you rather the one you love' in my opinion never works in long run. Because with time you will reach a saturation level. With time you lose your patience and every little thing about them gets in your nerves. They might give whole world to you, still that feeling of dissatisfaction will always hunt you. In reality, there should be a balance between giving and taking. Love should be in balance, relation should be in balance. Responsibility should be equally shared. Sacrifice should be equally made. Any relation where there is no balance is a ticking to be blast any moment.
