@karmanovaa: Phrase - «don’t cross an ocean for someone who wouldn’t even step over a puddle for you» is a metaphorical utterance about reciprocity in relationships.Sometimes even the closest person can not help in the worst situation. It tells you that you should not try for whom you are - nobody. But the truth is that there are people who just don’t need us. Not because something is wrong with us, not because of any flaws or shortcomings, but simply because our paths do not intersect where they matter.Their world is different, their priorities lie in a different plane, and no matter how hard we try, we cannot become what we want to be for them. And it’s not our fault - just as it’s not their fault.
