To Each His Own

Stop the sharing. You need to choose which one you want to be with and work that relationship. It is never greener on the other side; and there are weeds in both yards. I listen to people calling in on the radio station 102.5 FM (Grown Folks Radio) most mornings on my way to work. The number one discussion is someone having relationships with more than one person. You know the usual, he-she mess or the she-he. I say when there are two men and one woman, the woman is the problem. And of course, when a man is splitting two oaks, the man is the problem. We all know people who either splitting two oaks, or got two or more hands in the cookie jar.

The other day I read about a woman whose roommate had slept with her boyfriend. She and her boyfriend broke up and now the boyfriend comes over almost every night to see his new girlfriend, which is still, by the way, her roommate. How painful this must be to hear your ex and your roommate going at it at all times of the day or night. The advice to her was to see if she could break the lease and move on. If not, then try to sublease her lease.

Cheating has been around for ages and it sure isn’t going anywhere. But at least have the common decency to let the misfortune or fortunate person know that you want to play the field. By doing so, each can have his/her own. If you want out, get out. And on the other hand , if you don’t want him or her to go, let them go anyway and save yourself some grief, pain and suffering down the road. There is someone out there that wants what you want, but they can’t stumble across you, if you are still holding on to someone that’s not worth it.
