A
young boy and girl were enjoying a pleasant afternoon playing outside
in their neighborhood together. The boy showed the girl his
collection of beautiful, unique marbles. In turn, the girl showed the
boy the handful of candy that she had just gotten for her birthday.
The
boy proposed that the two of them switch–he would give her all of
his marbles if she handed over all of her candy. The girl agreed, as
she found the marbles to be beautiful as well.
The
boy handed over all of his marbles, but kept one–the most exquisite
one of them all–in his pocket. The girl kept her promise and gave
the boy all of her candy.
That
night, the girl was happy with the exchange and peacefully went to
sleep.
The
boy, however, couldn’t sleep, as he was up wondering if the girl
had secretly kept some of her candy, just like he did with the
marble.
When you don't give your all in relationships, you believe everyone is holding back as well.
