"You can't have your cake and eat it,too" is a saying that describes the dilemma faced when you want one thing very much,but you are not willing to give up other things in order to have it.
For example:A young handsome man starts dating a beautiful young woman.He falls in "like" with her,but is not willing to have a committed relationship because he still wants to "play the field" and date other women.Rightly,the young woman knocks him on his rear and sends him packing,saying:"You can't have your cake and eat it,too."
In other words,what he wants are two things that are opposite one another.He cannot have both.
I think you've taken this a little bit into apples-and-oranges territory here.It's not a matter of having conflicting interests in two different things,but trying to get double duty out of the same one thing.You can't show off your emerald necklace while it's locked away for safekeeping.
You're saying I can't have a piece of cake now,and also a wee sliver of pie later,as a midnight snack.My doctor died and left you his practice?
For me,Aupick's simpler explanation has it covered.
Not that I'm criticizing your creative use of the phrase.When you've kicked that two-timing guy to the curb,it's not such a bad idea if your parting shot leaves him scratching his head and saying "now what was that all about?"

I apologise if this kinda of thread is repeated over and over but after reading and learning English or the others i still feel at a slight loss as to what i should do
I completed my A-levels just over a year ago,getting BCC (inc Biology) and an A at AS-level.I went onto uni to do Environmental Science but quicky realised i really didn't want to do another 3 years of full-time study and left after a term.
I would love any kind of job that involves interacting with animals,preferably wildlife,or the environment.Advancement and salary increases aren't much of an issue to me as that always means more office time which i'd prefer to keep to a minimum
My problem is that i'm unsure whether i should go to college and do a year course in a relevant subject,even though it probably won't be a higher standard of education than my A-levels OR whether i should get stuck into some voluntary positions that provide in job skills and contacts OR if i should bite the bullet and go and get a degree.
Learning English requires action.I may know all the learning tips,but if I don't start doing things,I will achieve nothing.The fact is,if I want to learn to speak English well,I must change my life.
