Sacrifices....

What is the biggest sacrifice you've ever had to make?  I think long and hard and a lot of thoughts come to mind.  I have made a lot of sacrifices in my life for myself, family and loved ones/friends.  To a certain extent, it even came to a point where I decided that sacrifices should actually have limits- especially if the results are not forthcoming.

What happens when someone you really value in your life never makes any sacrifices for you?  Or perhaps the love between the two of you is not in par?  This happens in life all the time to people (I’ve seen and listened), the other party pulls more weight than the other in relationships all the time.  Should you then leave?  Pack your bags and call it quits?

I guess this depends on the one’s emotional wellbeing!  Can you cope with being ‘used’ or not getting the same level of respect, contribution, love or support in your relationship?

I would say move on- but then again- staying and hoping for a change of heart or improvement in a situation may be something to hope for- if you have the patience!

But one thing's for sure- never allow yourself to be second best for someone who doesn’t appreciate you!
