سلام "And why should I take only what no one else wants?" In English, there's an expression that is used for food. "Why do I get stuck only with the leftovers?" It means that others have been given the opportunity to choose the best options on the table, and you get stuck with what's left. The good food is taken, and you have to take what no one else wanted. In the short context of your phrase, the speaker is saying something similar, but it pertains to a relationship of some kind. It's a way of saying, "Why should I accept him even if I don't want to. Is it expected of me for some reason?"

The phrase "why should I take only what no one else wants?" or "why should I take only what no one else will have?" suggests a reluctance to settle for something undesirable or less valuable. In the given context, it appears that the speaker is expressing a desire not to limit themselves to what is left over or rejected by others. The speaker may be asserting their right to pursue something better or expressing a refusal to accept a situation where they are expected to settle for less. It could also reflect a sense of self-worth and a reluctance to be content with what others have rejected or deemed undesirable. In essence, the speaker is questioning why they should be confined to choices that others have already passed over, implying a desire for something more desirable or valuable.
