DTR

The DTR. Whether it's welcome, dreaded, unexpected, or uneventful, it's vastly important. It is the moment where two lives converge or diverge, the moment of clarification, the moment of direction. It is the chosen path toward the future.

The DTR. The laying out of one's expectations, hopes, and innermost thoughts. It may start with the often-dreaded "We need to talk." Or it can result in the aftermath of an intense situation. Occasionally, it emerges from a simple, daily conversation.

The DTR. Often the DTR is outright shunned, whether in an effort to avoid pain or maintain ambiguity. Sometimes it's anxiously anticipated, the conclusion of time spent wondering, waiting, and wishing. All too often, as was the case with my ex, the DTR never happens.

The DTR. Sometimes it's a win-win, sometimes it's a lose-lose, and sometimes it's simply a compromise. Regardless of the outcome, the fates have spoken and been chosen. The path has been forged.
