][ Would You Jump? ][

Hello! Happy New Year to you all! I'm proud to be the first to actually post this year. It's awesome.

I'm going to start the year off with something that I've always wondered about. If you liked a said person a whole lot, cared for the person a lot and by God's grace the feeling was mutual! Wouldn't that be awesome? Of course it is!

Here comes the but. But, you know it will never work out between the both of you. Fine, maybe not that it wouldn't work out but rather that it would 80% not last. Or maybe by the circumstances of your future, it would be highly unlikely that this relationship would be able to withstand the test of time & distance ( let's say one of you goes abroad or something similar.. ).

The question now is, would you still go along with the relationship?

If you do, both of you would get so attached to each other, enjoy each other for maybe a year, maybe more and then when the time comes to part, the only thing left after the entire fiasco is two very hurt and broken people.

If let's say it does last several months as a long distance relationship then one of you just can't take it anymore and then it's byebye relationship. What then? Same diff. What would be left would be two frustrated, broken hurt people.

If you don't even get together, would you then be missing out on a chance of a lifetime? This could be your shot at happiness! ( eternal soul mate.. if you must ) But of course, if it doesn't work out, you wouldn't have felt like you totally wasted your money, energy, affection and whatever else here AND there would be no broken emotionally tormented people at the end.

So, which would you do?
As for me, it's still something I'm pondering and, I'm not getting any closer to the answer.
