A man sits down on a bench next to an old man, he's just about to visit his girlfriend at her apartment. The old man turns to look at him.
"If you love her... show it"
The man looks startled.
"Of course I love her"
"Does she know that?" The old man asked.
"I...I would assume she knows that"
The man's face reddened in confusion.
"If you love her... you will treat her the same way you treated her when you chased after that. If you love her.. you'll make her feel wanted."
The man had realized that he hadn't been treating her like he first did. He moved closer over to the old man.
"I guess... I haven't really treated her the same way like when I chased after her."
The old man looked at him with wisdom.
"Do not take her for granted. A woman loves you, with everything she has, she puts every ounce of love in her body, into loving you with the love you deserve, the kind of love she deserves too. She never takes you for granted, and she expects you to know that when she says she loves you, that she does not put that lightly. You've changed her life for the better, and you're the best thing to have happened to her. Do you realize how lucky you are to have her? Do you show her how lucky you are? Because if you love her...you'll show her."
The man's face reddened more but this time in shame.
"Old man, I do not know you, and I do not know how you know me. But I want to thank you.For you have opened my eyes and I have changed. I will treat my woman with the love and respect she deserves. And I will never take her for granted again, I swear on it.
The man stands up, and holds his hand out to the old man, then changes his mind and leans down and hugs him.
Then he walks towards his girlfriends apartment, ready to show her how much he loves her.
