I just got to thinking yesterday how I'm really annoyed with some of my friends and family members who start dating someone and drop everyone else. I don't think they realize how much it hurts to be that person that gets dropped faster than a hot cup of coffee. It sucks because it's like you're one of the people that was there first, you were there when there was no man. Now that there is one, you become lower on the priority level; now that there is one, you aren't important enough to make time for, or you'll understand because you're just that understanding. It's funny, cause if someone thought that about me (that i'd be that understanding) they'd have to be crazy! There's no way I would ever understand that mentality - no way! It's unfair because whether or not the couple makes it, you'll be there in the end waiting like the dog at the door at the end of the day: even though you got left behind, you're still there ready for your one-on-one time. Part of me tells me that it will fade, it's just the "honeymoon period" essentially. Once the complete infatuation for one another dies down, some time will free up. It's probably a stupid lie I tell myself just to get this thinking to stop. Maybe that's how it is when you find the right person, maybe no one else is important and maybe I'll be that way...but I hope and I pray, that if that's not the way it is, but that's the way I am, I hope & pray someone snaps me out of it.
*If you think this note is directed at you, it may well be...but not just you, don't flatter yourself!*
P.S. I know 2 people (that i appreciate) who are doing things right!
