Feelings

 Six months ago, my neighbor asked me for my Home Wi-Fi password. I gave it to him because it didn't cost me anything and I got along with him. Yesterday I was walking home and he was at the door. I stopped to talk a bit as usual, and he happily told me he now has Netflix. At that, I jokingly said: ′′I work hard, barely have time to watch TV, but it's great, if you could lend me your password to watch some shows I'd appreciate it". A voice was heard in the distance, it was his wife, “I won’t give it to him, because I am the one who pays for it and won’t share it."

The most total silence reigned!🤭

The man apologized subheading, I said there was no problem. We kept talking about other things, as they went in, he stayed out doing his stuff. Shortly thereafter, his wife came out to call him, she seemed very anxious, said the television wasn't working. My neighbor came into thier house. After a few minutes, he and his wife came to me and told me the Wi-Fi wasn't working, that the password wasn't going in. I looked at them and said, ′′I changed my password, because it's me paying and I won’t share it ". The wife turned red and tried to say something, but I said, ′′Ma'am, I have my home internet wifi and you have your Netflix, everything is fine and everyone is happy". They turned around and left. They never spoke to me again.

This story isn't mine, but here's the lesson I learned from it:

- Friendship must be mutual.

- Trust must be mutual.

- Love must be mutual.

- Affection must be mutual.

In 2020, at the turn of this Pandemic

I intend to return silence with silence;

Absences with absences;

Affection with affection;

Friendship with friendship;

and loyalty with loyalty.

No more unidirectional feelings. 

Feelings must be mutual. ❤️💙💛
