Choose Love
Based on a true story…
“Hi. Remember me?”
“Hmmm. I’m not sure..”
“I’m your ex. We dated a long time ago.”
“Really? We did?”
“Yes. How’s Allan? I’m sure you have made your best call when you decided to leave me.”
“Oh, gosh. I’m sorry. Are you..”
“Yes, it’s Caleb. Guess I have changed a lot until you didn’t recognize me at all.”
“No, it’s not that. You look great.”
“You too. You always do…”
*
“I met him last night!”
“Him.. who?”
“Caleb, my ex! The guy I left for my husband. You know..”
“Ah, him. Yeah, I still remember that smiley-faced-guy, but I can’t seem to remember why you left him though..”
“I loved him so much. The reason was my mom.”
“Your mom didn’t like Caleb?”
“Not that she didn’t like him.. but back then, Allan was filthy rich, while Caleb just started his career.. mom said I would be happier if I marry Allan instead.”
“How in the world did your mother know a lot about Allan and Caleb’s financial conditions? I don’t get it.”
“Ummm. There was this family party where my mom kind of ‘auctioned’ me.”
“SHE DID!? Crazy!!!”
“Yes. Allan bid the highest price and everyone in the room was so impressed, including my mother.”
“So, that’s it? You left Caleb for Allan just for that stupid auction?”
“….”
“And? Are you happy with your marriage with Allan?”
“I thought I would be…”

CHOOSE LOVE. ALWAYS CHOOSE LOVE.

@Erma: In conclusion, finance (alone) doesn’t create happiness
Regarding your question, I’m not in a place to give an answer, but simply challenging you to think above and beyond. For me personally, I wouldn’t want to do that kind of stupid mistake…

Happiness in marriage can’t be defined merely by measuring the love, for there are other values to be measured, i.e. trust and trustworthiness, integrity, vision, etc. But love is indeed the main key to open the door of happiness. If marriage is the building, then love is the foundation. I can assure you that, for I have experienced it with my wife. And we love each other more as days go by…

Absobataklutely (haha, nice alias you have here), thanks for your comment. I guess it all comes back to our personal values ya
I’m a person who respects my parents so much, but respecting doesn’t mean letting yourself have no says upon your life. Again, it all comes back to your personal values
