The kind of writer I am, I wait. I wait for words to come to me, for thoughts to arise in my head. I hate running after things. I always have since childhood. I like to take my time with things, thoughts and most importantly people. They say that you should invest in a relationship, let it grow and then reap the benefits of it.
I perfectly understand this theory but again, I can’t help but pose questions here. The first one is how do you figure out who to invest it? Do you decide on the basis of bank balance, personality or smouldering looks or perhaps all? Think about it. Nobody is perfect; we all have our imperfections which makes us unique.
Coming back to the topic, my next question is based on the assumption that we’ve found the ‘correct’ person to invest in, to put it in pure finance terms how do we decide whether this investment is a liability or an asset?! I know the saying, “you don’t have to bite the doughnut to know its sweet,” but this is not a doughnut we are talking about, it’s about judging people, their intentions, beliefs etc...In the end it’s all about facing truth.
It’s not an asset- Reality bites me: Ouch! This is the part which hate, how do you deal with a liability?! Again, there are a lot of differences of opinions here. Ice-creams, bitching, Emo songs... God the list is endless! Dealing with a heart-break in a way determines how strong a person you are. How good or otherwise you are in controlling your emotions and conditioning yourself.
A thought struck me; can you condition yourself to make another investment regardless of knowing whether it’s a liability or an asset? It might be rational, illogical or purely emotional anyhow in the end are you willing to take a chance? It might be a lucky hunch or a calculated risk. I have never been good at maths to do the numbers but I know I am neither ready to toss the dice... yet.
