Below is a quote from one of my favorite books- High Fidelity by Nick Hornby. I read it a few times back in college, but my best friend is in the middle of it now. She sent me an e-mail this morning with the quote mentioning, "I came across this line that is soooo you." The interesting thing is, I remember that when I read the book, I thought the same exact thing.
I suppose some things never change.
emotional things all day, and as a consequence we can never feel
merely content: we have to be unhappy, or ecstatically,
head-over-heels happy, and those states are difficult to achieve
within a stable, solid relationship."
Firstly, this applies to all relationships- lovers, friends, even relationships with inanimate objects. Relationships with myself. Secondly, I wouldn't wish this condition on my worst enemy. It's actually quite the curse.
