...naturally I'd want to try and work it out. It would be disrespectful to walk away without even trying-- if the relationship was that important to me then of course I'd want to protect it.
But I know that realistically not everyone would accept sharing that sort of relationship with others.
If it came to that... and there was no other way... I would want that person to be happy-- even if what made them happy was choosing someone else.
I guess that's an acceptable answer... Just don't forget, by existing, especially in a place like this, it's probably unavoidable if you hurt some people.
It's fine to try to avoid hurting others' feelings, but make sure you consider your own, too.

[The headpat... what a powerful weapon.]
But I'll make sure I don't forget my own too. There are some things and some people I won't compromise, no matter what.

[Pat pat. And then drawing his hand back again.]
