The Scorpion and The Frog

I heard of a story before, the scorpion and the frog, and would relate it to my own live now. Being in a relationship is great, having the feeling of loving and being loved. Which woman don't like the idea of a fairytale? However, after a short period of sweetness, nature came to knock at the door and make me stray away.

It's so difficult to stay out of the game and I'm restricting myself as much as possible. It's hard to stick with one, so I stick to none. If you get what it means. Was this the impact from the relationship failure with ah fu? Not exactly but it probably got magnified after that. Prior to the relationship with him, I am already having a little of this nature within me. Just that I managed to stick to one during the years I'm with him.

What's wrong with me seriously? I can't find the "heart" in relationships; my own "heart". Relationship is never the same simple meaning as it has been in the past.

A scorpion asked a frog to carry him across a river, the frog is afraid of being stung during the trip, but the scorpion argues that if it stung the frog, the frog would sink and the scorpion would drown.

The frog agrees and begins carrying the scorpion, but midway across the river the scorpion does indeed sting the frog, dooming them both. When asked why, the scorpion explains that this is simply its nature.

The story is used to illustrate the view that the behaviour of some creatures, or of some people, is irrepressible, no matter how they are treated and no matter what the consequences.
