Everyone has their own rhythm and I've always believed that. In my life, I've tried to keep up with others, but in the end, I've found that only by keeping my own pace can I truly find happiness.
Ling'er, I think we can go further. "Those were the words that Jack confessed to me when I was in college.
Jack is a heart-pounding boy who is smart, enthusiastic, and always gets things done fast. With him, I felt like I was being caught in a whirlpool, spinning fast every day.
Jack, you know I like you, but I need time to think. "I'm trying to keep that pace under control.
However, Jack didn't understand what I meant. His impatience made me feel stressed. His actions and words convey his determination to start a relationship right away.
I can't wait that long, Ling'er. "His anxious look made me feel like I was losing control of things.
And just like that, I gave up my pace and tried to keep up with him. However, I found that the more I tried to adapt, the more tired I felt.
Jack, I can't go on like this. "Finally one day, I mustered up the courage to express my feelings to him.
Jack looked confused. "Why?Aren't we pretty good?”
I shook my head, "You're too fast, Jack. I need more time to process things and understand emotions. I can't keep up with you. ”
At that time, I understood that I couldn't give up my rhythm to cater to others. Because everyone has their own pace, and only by maintaining their own rhythm can we find true happiness.
In the days that followed, I met Xiaowei, who was in step with me. He is empathetic and knows how to respect my rhythm and our lives are harmonious and enjoyable.
Ling'er, I like you, but I'll wait for you to get ready. Xiaowei said to me gently. His patience and understanding made me feel comfortable and also made me feel safe.
Now, I'm glad I made that decision. Never be with guys who are too fast, because everyone has their own rhythm, and you can only find true happiness if you find someone who is in step with you.
Being fast isn't always good, especially when dealing with emotions. Everyone needs time to understand, to adapt, and to accept. No one can force you to speed up your pace, because that will only throw you off balance.
So, I hope you can also find your own rhythm and find that person who is willing to walk slowly with you. That's my story, and I hope it inspires you.
