I want to comment on this specific comment - Sometimes, the rules placed upon us by others are not fair.

And though the others attempt to absolve themselves of responsibility because we are the ones who broke the rules, in truth, they are as just at fault for placing us under impossible conditions.


Let me say first, that this comment is not in reference to the specific situation that inspired this thread. I do my best not to comment on specific relationships in public settings, so please do NOT take this in any way as a comment on the relationship that inspired this all.

That being said, I disagree with this comment about rules. Rules, issues, emotions, none of these thing, IMHO are ever 'fair or unfair.' Because you always have the choice to accept, not accept, or negotiate further. If someone draws a line in the sand, and says, these are my rules, or else... well, thats their choice. and then whoever they are dealing with has the choice to accept the rules, or say no, I can't accept them.
