Summary
The content reflects on the complexities of a love triangle through a haiku, emphasizing the role of personal pride in hindering potential relationships.
Abstract
The web content presents a poignant haiku titled "Love Triangle," which encapsulates the essence of a romantic entanglement where mutual affection is overshadowed by the inability to reconcile due to pride. The haiku succinctly expresses the pain of a situation where love is unrequited not due to lack of feelings but because of the individuals' own egos. Accompanying the poem is a photograph by Nathan Langer, depicting a visual metaphor for the emotional distance within the triangle. The author reveals personal introspection, acknowledging their own tendency to project and deflect personal faults onto others, which often obstructs the path to love and happiness. A linked article, "It’s Not You, It’s Me," is also included, offering a woman's perspective on the dynamics of relationships and self-awareness.

I love you and you
love me, but because of pride
we can never be!
I wrote this for a prompt: “love triangle.” Sometimes, we’re the ones who get in our own way. We project and deflect onto others our own faults, insecurities, and shortcomings. I know for sure, I am guilty of this.
