Open up your very own business. Buy a house with a maid's quarter, and if possible, pool. Buy a luxurious sportscar with the speed that reaches your heart with content. A dog who is always waiting for you on the doorstep as you go down to your vehicle.
That's the dream.
Until one day, a guy walked in my life. Yes, he is perfect. He is everything you wanted. But one problem: he's far away from the dream in life. They're both far from each other. Cannot be attained together.
Which would you prefer? A perfect lifestyle? Or the perfect partner?
Let's compare the perks of both sides.
The dream.
It's the perfect lifestyle. You can go to restaurants, treat your family with your own money. You can cruise anywhere you want. But of course, gas is the limit. You have your very own home theater, your very own game center with the latest game consoles which all men craved for. You have a loyal friend to be there whenever you needed him. He can be with you when you go to sleep, when you eat, when you want to go out and exercise. Go travel the world. Plus unlimited shopping. Perfect. But the difference is...you have no one to share it with. Yes, you may share your wealth to your parents, your friends. But having a significant other is different. What's the point of it all if it feels lonely? Empty? Incomplete?
The guy.
The perfect significant other. He has the looks. He is very caring. He is as sweet as your favorite chocolate. He is as loyal as your bestfriend in life (like a loyal friendly dog who's been with you since birth). He is as friendly as your bff. He knows how to treat you like a princess. Make you feel safe, feel warm, feel loved. He knows how to make you laugh in every way. And yes, he knows how to make you feel sad, mad and even make you cry. He seriously knows how to make you feel good. He knows you physically from head to toe. But of course, there are times that the man you wanted has his own wants. His own happiness. There are times that he will forget about you and have enjoyed his company with friends. There are times that he will be blinded by the excitement to be with his friends that he might leave you all alone at the airport with a heavy burden because you just came out from a parent's quarrel. There are times that he wants you all to himself but he doesn't belong to you wholly. But that's not a problem when you are in love. No. The BIG problem is different from those. He live very far away from you. It's like you are both at the different ends of the earth where physical communication is impossible. It breaks your heart knowing that he is beyond your reach. Cannot fill in to each other's emptiness, happiness and experience together.
How will this be solved? Will it be the perfect dream and follow the saying, "There are other fishes in the sea"? Or will it be with the perfect guy, sacrifice the dream life and be content on a simple one?
What will it be then?
The dream life?
Or the dream guy?
A reply would be much of a help. Thank you.
