It's him or me, choose.

Isn’t it amusing how one relationship holds the key to many other relationships? If that one relationship falls, many other relationships also fall. It’s like a domino. I don’t think it’s fair, though. Why do we let one relationship, which isn’t even ours, define our other relationships?

I really want to understand your train of thought when you say, “It’s him or me, choose.” I agree you were in a relationship, but do you realise the deep bond I have with the other person. I was friends with both of you, long before you started dating. So, who gave you the right to pull me apart from the other? You made me third wheel between you guys for a long time, you shared things that have scarred me for life, you made me be the judge for your quarrels, and then one day you tell me to choose. You made me the judge because I was always neutral. I didn’t favour one above the other. So why make me favour one of you now? Maybe I would have if he did something wrong. That wasn’t the case though, you both decided to end the relationship because “It just wasn’t working out”.

Well, it’s your choice who you be in a relationship with, but you can’t decide my friends for me. Why am I made to choose? Do you really think it is right to make your friend choose between two people she loves?

I don’t want to choose between two people I love. I want to keep both of you in my life. What’s worse, is that after asking me, you expect me to choose you and not him. You hurt me by asking something that I can’t even answer. So, the question is, do I need to do what you expect of me? The question also is, do I need to choose just because you asked? I believe the answer is a big fat NO. I am not willing to put one above the other. I have a different relationship with both of you. I go to one when I need someone to hear me out, and I go to the other when I need someone to cheer me up. You both have stayed by my side for a long time. You both have been with me through the ups and downs of my life. You both are equally important to me. I love you both unconditionally. Hence, I am ready to not mention anything about one to the other. But, I am definitely not ready to pick just one of you.
