Family Matters

If I had to choose who deserves my loyalty more, a family member or a significant other, I would have to take many important things into consideration. I would have to think about who would be there for me the most, who cares for me the most, and who loves me the most. I would never want to hurt a family member personally. If my family did not get much respect from my significant other or were being thrown aside because of my lover, I definately could not choose the person I have fallen for. If my significant other was getting picked on by my family for every little thing she did, I'd have to tell my family that they are in the wrong. Family is one of the most important necessities in life, but love is also what we are all looking for. The person who should be trusted is the person who has always been there for me or who would always be there for me. If my respected family member did not like my lover for a very important reason, such as she was someone who never respected me or would treat me like trash and I was manipulated into thinking otherwise, the person standing on the sidelines such as a family member would be able to wake me up to the truth. If my family member did not have a reason for why I should leave my lover, I would have to take my lover's side. If my significant other claimed that she was being mistreated by my family and she clearly was, I would definately take her side and try to come up with a resolution for peace between the two because I could never leave family, but they have to respect my decision as well.
