Give and Take

i love selfish people
because I can guarantee they will always tell me what they want

the selfish personality
asssuages its conscious
when in disagreement
with the selfbelieve that it is honest and upfront
calls a spade a spade

i have never believed this guff
of couples deciding on mutual decisions
without one party compromising

somebody always has to compromise

and i think it is a beautiful thing
to swallow your wishes
for somebody else

but you can't do it all the time
there should be balance
turns

It is not about saying you are not sorry
for sticking by your belief/ves'
you are sorry
for having conflict with someone you value
there is no shame in saying
i am sorry
it doesn't mean you a wrong
it just means
that interaction is more important
than having the other person give in to you
if you love somebody
should you not also love that they are enough of their own person to disagree with you?

p.S. i will probably delete this when i am sober :)
