versions of love

Early this morning, I was looking for a piece of paper that contains my initial schedule for next week. I scanned all my folders and books on my table hoping that I had just inserted it through the pages. As I was flipping the pages in one of the books, a funny article triggered my interest instantly. It all started with the line: “Love is a matter of perspective.” It is funny in a way that it stated different versions of love.
The original version: Used to be this:
If you love something, Set it free…
If it comes back, it’s yours, if it doesn’t; it never was yours in the first place.

BUT THE PESSIMIST’S VERSION IS THIS:
If you love somebody, Set her free…
If she ever comes back, she’s yours, If she doesn’t, well, as expected, she never was.

THE OPTIMIST VERSION:
If you love somebody, Set her free…
Don’t worry, she will come back.

THE SUSPICIOUS VERSION:
If you love somebody, Set her free…
If she comes back, ask her why.

THE IMPATIENT PERSON’S VERSION:
If you love somebody, Set her free…
If she doesn’t come back within time limit, forget her.

THE PATIENT PERSON’S VERSION:
If you love somebody, Set her free…
If she doesn’t come back, continue to wait until she comes back.

THE PLAYFUL VERSION:
If you love somebody, Set her free…
If she doesn’t come back, and if you love her still, set her free again, repeat

THE LAWYERS VERSION:
If you love somebody, Set her free…
Clause 1a of Paragraph 13 a-1 in the second amendment of the Matrimonial Freedom Act clearly states that…

THE STATISTICIAN’S VERSION:
If you love somebody, Set her free…
If she loves you, the probability of her coming back is high.
If she doesn’t, your relationship was improbable anyway.

THE MBA VERSION:
If you love somebody, set her free…instantaneously…and look for others simultaneously.

THE PSYCHOLOGIST VERSION:
If you love somebody, set her free…
If she comes back, her super ego is dominant. If she doesn’t come back, her IO is supreme. If she doesn’t go, she must be crazy.

THE FINANCE EXPERT VERSION:
If you love somebody, set her free..
If she doesn’t come back, it’s time to look for fresh loans. If she doesn’t, write her off as asset gone bad.

THE MARKETING VERSION:
If you love somebody, Set her free…
If she comes back, she has brand loyalty. If she doesn’t reposition the brand in new markets.
