Compromises

what is the biggest compromise you've ever made with a loved one, a lover? i'm not talking about agreeing to paint the living room yellow instead of green. what are the big ones? how did you decide to let go of your position for them, do you regret it now?

the decisions circle me like predators that cleverly hide when i turn my head. but i know they are there, rustling in the dark future.

Biggest compromise...hmmm. For me it was doing the-- we will pretend you are not gay and I am just your friend.

It was SO bizzare. She was very closeted but yet would do PDA when she thought no one was looking.

I regret it now, I was trying to be understanding while she was coming out-- and in the end I was the "starter" gf. Since then I adopted the Dr. Seuss philosophy
