"Expiration Date"
In life, sometimes we tend to drag our feet when it comes to addressing certain issues or concerns. We have a tendency to not place as high a priority on things that don’t come with an expiration date. Bills are prevalent mainly because we realize that after the due date is exceeded, additional fees and compounded interest is applied to the original bill. As a result, we tend to have a very keen sense of urgency as it applies to expiration dates associated with our monthly bills.
Some of us have an outstanding obligation to a loved one but since it didn’t come affixed to an expiration date, we haven’t made an assertive attempt at reimbursement. Others of us have postponed the progression of a relationship indefinitely. You know full well that he/she has a strong desire to be more than just “friends” but since there is no expiration date attached, you continue to extend the commitment process for your own benefit.
Where do you draw the line? Don’t you deserve to be taken seriously as well? After all, shouldn't your concerns garner at least the same urgency as a Macy's department store bill? Here's a thought... perhaps it’s time you attached an expiration date to the things that matter to you. Similarly, there ought to be an associated penalty for overdue response to your concerns. Give it a try. See if this approach doesn’t yield better interest. It’s time that you expired your tolerant ways and received some form of return on your investment. Be blessed.

Everything has an "expiration date" even if it is not stated or put in writing. We do all need to stick up for ourselves and make sure that our friends and loved ones know that they can't just use us indefinitely. Especially when it comes to love relationships. I fully agree.
However, if you are the person who knows that someone "has a strong desire to be more than just friends," why wait for them to declare an expiration date? Why not be a mature, responsible man/woman and let him/her know that you don't see the two of you being more than "friends"? Stop being selfish and think of someone else for a change...or is that just the kind of person you wish to be?
Hmmm. That was very insightful Ms. Anonymous. Thank you for enlightening me with your comment. Please allow me to apologize for the pain that you've experienced by way of a prolonged "waiting game". Let's be clear that since I haven't a clue who you are, I'm not apologizing for hurting you personally. I'm apologizing instead for the waiting games that I've played in the past with several of the women who you represent. Please believe me when I tell you "when you know better, you do better". I'm doing better, these days. I hope God blesses you with the selfless lover you so rightfully deserve. Be blessed.

It's MR....women play those games too.
Sorry about that bro. I definitely appreciate the mental vitamin you left this morning.
