The Good And The Bad

Any time you get into a relationship, at first you usually see the best your potential partner has to offer, but sooner or later you will see the worst they have to offer. If you see the worst they have to offer immediately then you had better run like hell. A lot of stress and emotions that are running high usually tends to bring out the worst in people and I try to keep that in mind. Stress is the great equalizer and can break down the most kind hearted of souls. Sometimes that anger is directed at you because you happen to be the person standing in front of them at the time. Yes the words hurt but I try to keep in mind the fact that it is coming from the deepest, darkest part of their soul and I am hoping that deep down, they do not mean it and they are venting out of stress and frustration. That is what I would like to believe anyway. I am sure at some point and time that my dark side will come out and I will have to hope that they will be just as understanding. Relationships are all about give and take.
