A lover - a lover - is the type of modern, intelligent woman who can cause people to lose sleep all night. The two have been in love for two years, arguing for an average of three days at a time and every time they argue, he has a... invincible mindset. No apology. Not giving up. And absolutely do not admit your mistakes. He believes that if he is not wrong, why go into trouble. And even, sometimes when he was wrong, he thought: " let it be, but expressing weakness towards women is to pave the way for destruction!".
Then one day, a cold war broke out out from an unimaginable event: He ate the last piece of sponge cake in the refrigerator without asking. She was angry. He was surprised: "Just cakes, what's so bad about it?". She was silent all night. He also did not text. Because he thought: "Whoever is unreasonably angry must see his own mistake".
Three days later, she was still silent. He started to miss him a little. Remembering the way she wrinkled her nose when laughing, remembering the evenings when she lay with her feet on his thighs watching Korean movies and crying like rain. But... still did not text. Because the ego says: "For now, it's a loss".
A week later, he decided to write a philosophical Facebook status: "People often leave not because they are out of love, but because they are tired".
The friends liked it repeatedly, some even came to comfort: "come on bro". She was still not moved. He got even more angry. His ego shouted: "You are the one who is unreasonably angry! Why do I have to accept it?.
Until one thing on the eighth evening, he came home and found her jacket left on the coffee shop. In the bag was a small piece of paper: "When I want to talk again, just buy sponge cake". He smiled halfway. Is that easy? Is it enough to buy a cake? So what about a man's self-respect?
Ten minutes later, he entered the bakery. In the next five minutes, he stood in front of her house, holding a big bag of cakes. When she opened the door, he spoke quickly as if he was afraid that he would change his mind: "You're wrong. That cake is really delicious. I should have kept it for you. She looked at him for a few seconds, then laughed. After laughing, she said: "men who know how to lower their ego at the right time are even more adorable than cakes".
From then on, he began to understand: If you want to be gentle with women, don't use arguments to argue. The reason is not as good as a hug. An apology does not disrespect, but is the only way to keep your love. And sometimes, a sponge cake that knows how to say "You're wrong" is more effective than a hundred bustling philosophical statuses.
