I’d like to believe that there’s a grey area when it comes for relationships- when you can take a little, and give a little, but never fully committing; things are always kept casual and simple, and when it’s time to go on separate ways, it’s done very amicably.
But is there really?
I think at some point, things are bound to become serious, especially when you’re seeing each other often enough. It’s impossible to keep things with no strings attached. It sucks to be going out with somebody else, and wondering if you should be transparent with both. It sucks to be going out in the clubs, with guys swooning to kiss you on that day, and you’re wondering what your open relationship partner is gonna think. And most of all, it sucks to know that when it comes to that bound-to-get-serious point, you’re wondering if you’re gonna leave hesitantly with an aching heart.
I guess my point is, a casual relationship just don’t make it. You either give all or nothing, commit fully or not, decide to make it work or leave it. So in other words, you’re either in or out, no? And I’m only beginning to see it.
And maybe, my other point is, Facebook should stop giving too many options- you’re either taken, or not, there’s no such thing as it’s complicated.
