A tick embedded in your skin is always with you. But this companion is neither friend nor an equal partner. It takes from you what it needs to live and gives you nothing in return except possible severe illness.
Unmolested, it will remain with you as long as you permit it to do so: sucking you dry for sustenance. The tick will always be a burden to its host.
It has no special feelings for you and will quickly latch onto another should you become unavailable, unwilling or unworthy.
There are people who behave just like the tick. If you find yourself as a host, wise up and pluck the parasite off immediately.
