Because some people equate being alone with emptiness (which it is not). They can't handle silent moments when the only sounds you hear is the refrigerator humming, the clock ticking, the AC blowing, and the the crickets outside. I think they 'think' it is like death. A coworker once said to me, upon realizing I was single, that she'd kill herself if she was single (she was in a relationship). And exaggeration for sure. I didn't know what to say. A few months later that relationship ended when she found out he was cheating on her. She's still alive...
If I knew the answer to this, I probably would have moved out by now. I can't even get out the door to get to going back. Fear of making a mistake I guess. Of leaving and then regretting it.
Someone very close to me is going through this right now and it breaks my heart to hear her ups (seldom, but glorious) and downs (often and heart-wrenching) with the man who is slowly, cruelly tearing her down. She no longer knows what to think, or what to believe, and then ends up in tears on the phone with me for hours.
He's there, and so sweet- then he's not. Gone. No contact. Then he's back and as lovey dovey as ever.
He is playing a game with her, it's obvious. I can only listen, and be there for her. She knows I've been through a similar situation with a pathological liar before in my life, and I can only give her advice through what I (painfully) learned, but I can't tell her what to do or how to live her life.
Because nothing, not even chocolate, comes close to the feeling of that first flush of love and that very first kiss.
No, but you don't have to spend time talking about your chocolate.
