"I understand, but it doesn't mean I like it." The boyfriend will always tell me this whenever I become too irrational to handle (happened a lot before, and hopefully less now :p). This statement would always make me feel uncomfortable, shuts me up and makes me think - eventually making me realize that how I've been acting is already too much. And sometimes, when people around me become too much or when a situation becomes too much, I often say this to myself - "It's okay, you can understand this, but you don't have to like it." And amazingly, it often calms my nerves. There comes a point in life when you no longer like what you are doing, who you are dealing with and where you are. And there are always two ways to go from those certain points - to stop and leave everything, or stand your ground and continue doing what you do. To stop is a very easy option and we can always argue how we should always choose something that will make us happy ...
