But Will He Give You the Last Piece of Chicken?

You may have heard the saying about mothers…

A Mother Is A Person Who, Seeing There Are Only Four Pieces Of A Pie For Five People, Promptly Announces She Never Did Care For Pie.

Tenneva Jordan

I love this quote because it’s so accurate in how mothers love and sacrifice for their families. So, when I was talking to one of my builders years ago about a guy I was dating and he asked me, “but will he give you the last piece of chicken?” it really made me question things.

The answer was no, that particular guy wouldn’t have. He would have eaten it and then asked me to go get some more. It had never been broken down for me like that, but when I thought about how that mentality would bleed into other parts of our future…I was quickly unimpressed and I ended it.

The goal is to find someone who treats you well and sees your needs, who would let you have the last piece of chicken… since you never did care for pie.
