Balancing Love and Other Priorities
Sometimes, love and desires must be balanced with other priorities. Relationships require careful consideration and should not be pursued blindly if they conflict with what is important to us. For example, a person who falls in love with someone new while in a monogamous relationship may want to change the agreement with their partner, but it may not be possible or wise if the partner is dealing with mental health struggles. It is essential to acknowledge that love does not always conquer all, and sometimes, the cost of pursuing what we want may be too high.
