When you put yourself out there, bite more than you can chew and play a game you do not know the rules for sure, is that an emotional investment?
In a story about relationships, almost always there seems to be a double standard. He said she said kind of thing. He says we are just having a good time and she says let us see how far this goes, and he keeps doing what he does best and she is blind sided by giving it away not knowing nor understanding the consequences.
Like losing a piece of a puzzle that is she while he says that is all her.
It all starts with the slightest friendly gesture, one hello it is how it starts as the popular song would tell you.
Then they exchange stories, the wooing is tangled up in the friendly gestures and romantic innuendo is somewhere between the lines.
He digs deeper into her and after proving his sincerity she opens up allowing herself to be driven, taking the passenger's seat and pretty much enjoying the view of what is yet he would call an adventure.
He has invested to make sure his goal is achieved, while she is left to wonder, what now?
He has taken something from her.
She has given something away.
It is not a case of quid pro quo because what is at stake is not something one gives to get the same thing back. If only that is the case then there would be no more people walking around with their hearts on their sleeves.
No balls and chains there. Nobody forced no one into giving away what not. It is all you.
