There's Someone Else
Listen to this Insight
<span class="html-content"><p><span class="html-content"></span></p><p>Hey you, <br>I know that feeling. <br>I know that you know that I know that you know! <br>Yeah, she's great, and you want her. You want all of her. She's everything. <br>Ahhhh... She's fine art, and you can boldly say Abba de create content. I also know you've probably told her how you feel about her and how she makes you feel. You probably shot your shots in Lagos traffic to show her you'd always be there. If you're like me, you've already imagined what vacation with the ONE will be like. <br>Hard guys love hard. Dem don't get IDAN. <br>This could be you, as it was once me—or maybe me currently! I just want you to know she'll never be all yours. Relax ooo, be calming down. Once yours doesn't mean always yours. You need to understand that her entire life won't revolve around you. <br>Yeah, there'd be other people in her life. And in case you guys aren't official, just know you'll have competition. This swings both ways. Maybe I'm just overthinking or I don't trust people, but love is a choice. We choose those we love.</p><p></p> <p></p><p>I hope that makes sense. You could be a great guy with all the right intentions and not be her choice. Don't disembark because there could be others. <br>Yoooo, she's art. You should expect lots of people at the museum. If you don't end up with her, it's still a win. She'll be happy, hopefully, with someone else. <br>I know say e de pain but it is what it is. <br>Love with caution. <br>The truth is, we may feel entitled to people's hearts because of the beautiful picture we've created in our minds and maybe because we are genuinely trying to be the right person for the love of our lives. <br>Sometimes the heart and brain don't agree. <br>She may just like you as a friend, and that's still okay (it's actually not okay and e de pain but I want to be nice!). Friend zone is not the end of the world although it may feel like it.</p><p></p> <p></p><p>I think I'll stop, yeah. Besides, I'm not a preacher of love😅</p><p></p> <p></p><p>Finally, love right, love ready, love loud, love irrespective of and love responsibly.</p><p></p> <p></p><p>So what if there's someone else? You sef could be someone else!</p> <p></p> </span>
