The bubble burst when we had conflicting emotions, and uncontrollable egos. Blackmailing, threats, verbal showdowns, screaming matches and shaming were all part of it. It was horrible. A horrible end to an idyllic beginning. But why can't I have the best of both sides? Is it too much to ask for?
I want the freedom from all drama and dark emotions but I do want someone who will hold me tight when I am down.
Perhaps wanting both ends of the scale is something attainable through a complicated and unconventional arrangement, but will it serve any purpose? Being single and being taken are two entirely different arrangements, each with its gamut of issues. They are two sides of one coin and cannot be had together. The fear of reaching a deadlock in a relationship is probably why we might want to enjoy singledom. Alas, this wish by most is obsolete.
