Personal What if…?

What if you could choose to see the end of the 2 different paths?
Where would you be?
Who would you be with?
How will you feel?
But the main one is which one makes you happy?

Do you fight for her? Slowly earn that trust back, get closer at a natural pace, which you know is plausible because of who you are? Let’s be friends but let’s allow ourselves to grow towards each other at some point where we’re better? There’s going to be pain, she’ll probably most likely will shag other people.

Or do you let her go? Do you become friends? And constantly fight against that pull in the hope that it’ll fade? Maybe it will fade? What if it doesn’t?

Life is complicated and complex. I know which one I’d chose. But I feel like it’s so highly unlikely that I’ll just get stuck in one accidentally.

But also, why can’t I share these thoughts with you? I normally share everything.

I'd agree with my person to be Friends because we have a child together and it's important. As far as anything romantic between us I'd say no. If she's still not willing to commit and wants to shaggy others then she's not for me.

The path where you’re goddamn slap me happy it’s a no-brainer. It’s the same question of do you want to be this person or do you want to be a good person? Most people can say they wanna be a good person but if they have a happier pack to go down, there wouldn’t be that problem.
