Continuing from an earlier post on Borrowed Advice and inspired by a heartbreaking piece I came up with a tentative checklist on questions to ask oneself before going in for a lifelong commitment:
- Will I still love you when you are too tired for a movie but not a booze party?
- Will I still love you when you catch a cold and demand 24-hr nursing care?
- Will I still love you when you insist on trekking with an 11-month baby?
- Will I still love you when your job is more important than mine?
- Will I still love you when you have eyes only for your phone screen?
- Will I still love you when your family is my family but mine is not yours?
- Will I still love you when you are sullen, surly, cranky, moody, and grouchy?
- Will I still love you when you are bald and fat?
- Will I still love you when you break my heart over and over again?
- Will I love you still?
- Will I?
Thanks for reading. Feel free to add your own questions…
