50/50

Hard nose.
Never budge.
Never Move.
Never give 1/10 of an inch more than you’re getting.

You can’t.
Relationships are supposed to be 50/50,
Aren’t they?

If I give more, you get to take more.
That’s not fair.
Everything must be equitable.

Sometimes, I want to do something
Just because you want to do it.
But, I squelch that feeling right away.

I’m not going to take a chance.
If you exp4ect more than 50%, you’re selfish.

I remember a long time ago,
When I didn’t measure how much I gave,
As opposed to how much I got.

I just gave.
I didn’t care.
I wanted to... And it felt wonderful!

I was really stupid then.
