In this superficial society, everyone wants to find a partner that is well to do and financially stable. That being said, a Malaysian woman has shared her story regarding her relationship.
According to a post on a confession page, this woman said,
“If you have a partner now but meet someone better, would you break up with your partner?
The guy I just met is more caring, responsible and well to do. I know that I have a choice as we aren’t married yet but at the same time, I feel bad.”
She then continued in her post saying that her current partner is great, but the only issue with him is that he doesn’t have much savings.
“He doesn’t have much savings and his salary isn’t even RM5,000. He tells me that he wants to buy a house and car, but he is pushing 30 and still hasn’t achieved any of the things he wanted to achieve.
The current guy whom I’ve met is financially stable and has his own house. I’m scared that if I were to continue dating my current partner, I’d have to suffer. I just can’t see a future with him as of now”, she added.
She then mentioned that her current partner is very loyal to her and doesn’t speak or do things to make other girls think otherwise.
“It’s just that I feel like the love I have for him is slowly fading and I can’t see that he is trying to achieve the future he promised me. He currently has the ‘ whatever happens, happens’ attitude and it’s making me worried”, she said.
She then ended the post saying that she feels bad for thinking like that, but she doesn’t know what she should do.
“I’ve tried telling him about this issue but he didn’t say much about it, and is still treating me the way he usually does. I don’t know what do and who I should pick.”
Many netizens were quick to comment on the issue and here’s what some of them said:
“Have you thought about the fact that a guy with good qualities can also choose someone else who has better qualities than you?
Love is not a transaction, and you cannot just go around comparing it like an item you want to buy from stores. At the same time, the chances of you meeting someone better will always be there. No one is perfect. ”
“When you choose a new partner, and you decide to be together, what if you meet someone better than him? The cycle is not going to break. You have the right to choose someone who is better, but you must know how to be contended with what you have.”
“How can you make sure that when you’re with a new person, you wouldn’t meet someone better than him?
Or how can you ensure that your partner wouldn’t find someone better than you? Are you sure that your new partner wouldn’t dump you and choose another partner?
Karma is real and what goes around will come around.”
A relationship takes a lot of trust and compromise. If you’re having doubts about your relationship at any given time, you should speak to your partner about it and work out a solution.
