When one is "wholehearted" and the other "waits for the day from the donkey,"
Love doesn't always end in shouts or quarrels; often it slowly dies down in silence and an uncomfortable atmosphere that barely suffocates. This is the moment a relationship arrives at an impasse, a "vacuum" that creates a distorted equation of love between two people standing on completely different stances, but instead trapped in the same space.
In one corner of a relationship...
"I know it's never the same, but I'm not ready to lose her."
People who perceive that everything is not the same, but they are not ready to lose. For them, the whole world is full of terror. Waking up to the coldness of the other is like a knife cut down in the middle of every day.
"Recognizing the truth that he has all his heart is less painful than not having him in his life."
Even so, they choose to deceive themselves, try to be better, more attentive, hoping that this effort will revive their lost feelings. The only reason they will not let go is not because they do not know that the other person is heartbroken, but that they will endure an impersonal state, rather than face the isolation of the breakup.
While on the other side of this awkwardness...
"I don't feel anything anymore, but I don't want to be the wrong person to walk away."
People whose feelings have ended a long time ago have only a monotonous sense of duty and familiarity, but what keeps them standing here is not attachment, but "cowardice."
Silence, unresponsiveness, and disregard are used as a defense mechanism to indirectly defeat the other. Deep down, they just don't want to bear the guilt of being a heartless person for breaking up, and they choose to use their coldness to torture the other side to force the unbearable side to say the word themselves. By that day, they will walk away purely without being wrong in anyone's eyes.
The conclusion of this game
This awkwardness, each side quietly hurts each other and often ends in an inevitable breaking point, one day when the person trying to seduce realizes how tired it is to water the dead tree, the pain that accumulates to the end turns love into grief and gives up walking away as the other wants.
Or in other cases, the accumulated pressure leads to a conflict so large that the "last straw" leads to a fracture that creates a deeper wound than the straightforward conversation in the first place. After all, holding time away doesn't heal anyone's feelings, it just turns a breakup that should end in one day into a chronic, long-lasting psychological wound.
This invites us to come back and question ourselves...
In this situation, would you be willing to be a "mean man" who tells the truth to free both of them, or would you tolerate pain just to hold off as long as possible?
And in the end...Is love that has left only the body but the soul dead worthy of being called "love"?
