Something I question about myself: If you love someone, you should want them to be happy, like all the time, and no matter what. And of course, I do.
But … what if that person’s happiness means that it’s unlikely they’ll ever be with you. Or their immediate happiness makes it less likely they will talk to you, turn to you. Do you subconsciously (maybe not even subconsciously) get disappointed when things are going well for them (with their other person), and look forward to the unhappy times that push her closer to you?
It’s fucked up.
And I wonder if somewhere in there is the germ of the self-centeredness that can manifest in so many other ways and fuck up relationships.
