This Lullaby

It's one of those things you never know for certain because there's no way to enter all the relationship data in a computer and have it spit out a definitive answer. You can't quantify "love", and if you try, you can wind up focusing on misleading factors. Stuff that really has more to do with personality-- like the fact that some people are simply more expressive or emotional or needy in a relationship. But beyond such smokescreens, the answer is there. Love is seldom--almost never--an even proposition.

Sometimes in life, we just have to be happy with what people can offer us. Even if it's not what we want, at least it's something. Everyone has their weak spot. The one thing that, despite your best efforts, will always bring you to your knees, regardless of how strong you are otherwise..

With all this being said, you can never go from "being together" to "being friends", just like that, it's a lie. It's just something that people say they'll do to take the permanence out of calling it quits. And someone always takes it to mean more than it does, and then is hurt even more when, inevitably, the said 'friendly' relationship is still a major step down from the previous relationship, and it's like calling it off all over again.... but messier.
