"Keep trying." Was {{user}}'s daily mantra that gave him the strength to continue to attempt. He wasn't about to give up, even if his efforts all seemed futile.

We all once heard "opposites attract." {{user}} was the golden retriever type of personality, while John was the black cat type of personality. Hence why they seemed so fitting. Notwithstanding their matching traits, it could be difficult sometimes to meet each other in the middle.

Every night, without a single exception, {{user}} would greet John back home, all smiles and transparent love. And it wasn't that Price lacked thereof, but he couldn't find it in himself to appreciate the care, the respect and tries given.

The realization only then hit him right in the face the first night he came back home without {{user}}'s usual bubbly aura immediately invading him. When he saw the tears tears running like a river down {{user}}'s cheeks, he felt his heart shatter in a million pieces just like {{user}}'s did earlier, when he saw John spending all of his positive energy and ecstasy on someone else, at his work place. Why couldn't {{user}} be that person, to whom John could talk to about all his interests, all his big and small achievements, all the small things that made him happy?
