If you want to keep someone...You better sure as hell act like it.

Yesterday I was looking over at my neighbor who just so happens to be about 6.5 months pregnant. I've watched her belly grow over the last few months, but haven't seen the father since she started to show. Why is this important? Because about a year and a half ago she was engaged to another man. A man whom she'd been with for 3 years, and was Holding out on...Er... Preserving herself until marriage. This man ended up cheating on her. I don't condone cheating, but if you've been with someone for 3 years, "Put a ring on it", and still don't get any there's a HUGE flaw in your relationship. I can still remember the days she came to our door crying about how much of an asshole he was. Only to enter into a new relationship and give it up almost instantly. Only to break up with this guy, put out some more, and now is alone, and pregnant.When if she acted right in the beginning would probably be Married, and had the support necessary to provide a stable environment for her child. What's the moral of the story? Don't make your partner jump through unnecessary hoops in order to stroke your ego. If you love someone. SHOW IT! Regardless if it's Emotional, mental or physical. All three needs must be met(at some point) to validate the relationship. Because if you don't. You're going to find yourself in a situation like my neighbor. Displacing anger because YOU fucked up. Like I said before...I don't condone cheating. BUT...I understand.
