A nice warming topic for once.

I was talking to someone really important, about something unimportant, when I had a bit of an epiphany.

Everybody wants to have sex with loads of people. Some part of you, no matter how small it is, wants it. We all do. But, there's always that one person who makes you think twice. Their presence makes a fork in the road. You look down both ends, and you wonder why. Why is it that this one person is making me choose? Logic would say, "Hang a right. There's a few good memories and stories to tell your friends." Not to mention, it's more than one person. More chances, right? Then, you look to the left, and although it doesn't seem as action packed, for some reason, you just can't pass it up.

It's that person. The one who makes you second guess what you're used to. The one who can get you to stop drinking because it hurts them, or the one who can get you to stop yelling when they cry. The one whose tears wet your eyes too. There will always be one person for you who's like that.

I've also had it pointed out that there can be more than one of that person in some cases, for some people. I answered that like this.
"Think of a puzzle. Now, there's a piece. There's only one other shape that fits there. There may be other pieces that fit into that slot the same way though. That's comparable to what you're saying, right?"
"Right"
"Well, even though the shape fits, the picture doesn't match up."

Yeah, we can love more than one person. Most people will fall in love with more than one person in the span of their lives. But, there will only be one "that" person.
