Your Org. or Your Significant Other?
Mr. Perfect and I were talking the other day and the subject of BGLO's came about.
He asked me "If you had to choose between me and becoming a member of XYZ Sorority, which would you choose?"
He then took it upon himself and answer for me, stating that he KNEW I would pick the sorority over him.
I told him that the attractive things about the sorority is that it's a lifetime commitment, that I get out of it exactly what I put into it, and the bond I'd share with countless others who can understand the love that I have for the organization.
He has yet to put a ring on my finger symbolizing a lifetime commitment to me, there's always a chance that the relationship could slide from being 50/50 to 70/30, but as of right now the bond that Mr. Perfect and I share is very special.
In the end I told him I couldn't answer the question, and I thought the fact that he'd ask me to choose was unfair. If he loved me, he'd support my decision and respect the love I have for the organization. I think he believes that I'd up and leave if I became a member, and that isn't the case at all.
But just for fun, I thought I'd pose the question to you all.
Have you ever been given an ultimatum like that ("It's either me or your org?") ?
If you had to choose, which would it be? Your man/woman or your BGLO?
