Realize what you want

Before you make your choice in favor of hold it or drop it you have to forget all the emotions you have, you have to free your mind and heart of everything alien and ask yourself "What do I want?". That is the question of the greatest importance for you in case of you faced the problem of –hold-it-or-drop-it. Before you realize what you are going to do you have to realize what you want at first.
It is common that people bother about a number of unimportant things when they make their choice. They usually think about other people, about things they say and about arguments they give to weight one or another choice, and that is the main mistake people do. It is your life and so it is your choice, only your choice but not a choice of other people.
So, you have to calm down at first and then think about the real desires you have. Put back all that stuff about what your friends will say and put back all that stuff about what your parents will say and what a great number of strangers will say. Think about what you will say when you made your choice "to hold" or "to drop".
It is only your and the one you are in love is, and all the rest of the world is nothing from this point of view. Ask yourself what you want and things will become easier once you answer this question. Though, it has to be the frank answer of you. You have to be frank to yourself and to feelings and willing you have. Be frank to yourself.
