Why?
I found this sign (the one behind me in the picture) in SL, and liked it because it made me think, even if what it made me think about wasn't exactly the happiest of subjects. I began to think about why, sometimes, we will willingly still enter into a relationship with someone even if we know, right from the start, it is probably already doomed and isn't going to end well for us.
Did I find any quick and easy answers to this question, for all my pondering? No, not really. Each relationship is complex and unique, and subject to its own rhyme and reasoning. But I did conclude this: the heart wants what it wants, and often, it will try to get it, regardless of the potential cost to itself. The human heart is usually filled with roughly equal measures of hopeful optimism and stupidity. And that heart will make us its bitch sometimes. It's just the way it goes.
