Have you ever experience breaking a certain promise to your “sweet heart”? How did you handle it? Did you ell him/her the truth about your fault? How did you retain the trust that has been built-up? Sometimes, we can not avoid the fact of having conflict between our own made promises to our beloved someone. Something like we “partially broke a glass”.
Why a “partially broken glass”?
The glass connotes the “heart” or feelings of your love-one. Since when you promised something you let his/her expect something from you. But if you broke that promise, You are just like slowly hammering his/her heart to be partially broken. The consequence, your loved ones might lose trust from you.
When your promise have been broken
It is necessary that you cope up the things you’ve missed. When your promise have been broken by you yourself, never leave it as it is on that way; because you are just making things come to worst. So, what would be the best option to do?
Tell him/her immediately
This is very literal. After doing something that you think you have broken your promise, especially if you were just tempted and you did not do it intentionally, (like you had an affair with someone because you were drunk or by any reason). The first thing you need to do is you should tell him/her honestly. As the saying goes “Honestly is the best policy”, that’s true. By that, even he or she would be mad but fortunately you never lose his/her trust with you. Let your heart listen to his/her side and ask forgiveness. Never hide your fault.
Shared experience:
I have built a very strong relationship to someone who dearly admire me most. It’s been a long time that we were together sharing and cherishing every happy moments and enjoying the gift of love with each other. To make the story short, I gave a promise to my love, which I unfortunately broke it. I had an affair with my friend. I hid it to myself and I didn’t tell it to my love without realizing that “no smoke could either be hidden”. I keep it as my mortal secret because I as afraid that if I will tell it to my love, it would be a source of an extreme madness.
But that’s the greatest mistake I have ever did. I only then realized that if I have told it to my love earlier, that would be better….
Because if you did that, your love one would think that you are faithful to him/her because you were honest and you let him/her know that you were just tempted.
The key to not break a glass is HONESTY and honesty would only be achieved if there is sincerity and no other else.
