How To Adopt A Platypus And Keep It At Home

Hurricane vs rain

Comienzo compartiendo esto con ustedes, es una quote bastante popular en internet de la novela "Looking for Alaska" de John Green:

"I wanted so badly to lie down next to her on the couch, to wrap my arms around her and sleep. Not fuck, like in those movies. Not even have sex. Just sleep together, in the most innocent sense of the phrase. But I lacked the courage and she had a boyfriend and I was gawky and she was gorgeous and I was hopelessly boring and she was endlessly fascinating. So I walked back to my room and collapsed on the bottom bunk, thinking That if people Were rain, drizzle and she WAS I Was a hurricane "

... I was not much, and she was beautiful, I was incredibly boring and it completely fascinating, so I returned to my room and I fell on the bed thinking that if people were rain, I would drizzle and she would storm.

Putting aside the basics of my translation, the paragraph makes me think of love "impossible" in quotes impossible because that label is put ourselves in the sense that we think someone is too "wow" for us.

do not talk about our obsession with Johnny Deep or Angelina Jolie or if you want something with the wife of your brother, the priest of the parish church or some other relationship "banned" for reasons unrelated to this post. I mean how hard it sometimes can make us believe that those who yearn for, can look at us. Sadder still, when it should be less so, if that person is part of your life, whether it is physically accessible, if you know and probably well. That inside you says, would never set on me, why would I? if you can be with someone else (most everything that you) then we are resigned to become friends.

but some can consider this as a crude self-esteem problem, I'm sure some have been there time. We've all had a platonic love in real life. You know anyone who disrupts the schedules and everything seems possible but the fascination you feel for it becomes a brick wall which makes it impossible for you to go. The put on a pedestal from which to see it bigger, more beautiful, more popular, smarter, more fun and more other qualities that anyone, including you.
There are two options:

• value Arm yourself and follow the advice your friends who say "go for it" because ultimately the worst that can happen is that you say no, that there is no reason to think it's too much for you because what matters is the essence of people and blablabla what if a bit more handsome than you? What if the life of the party and instead you are from those who prefer to keep a low profile? It's not like that all couples are equal, that would be boring. And realistically it is quite rational to simply say what you feel and continue your life the positive or negative. It is complicated and unnecessarily dramatic suffer in silence for a love that you think may never happen when the page is something as seemingly simple as talking and ready, keyword: Apparently (and it would save long and repetitive conversation about why not bring yourself to faithful friends and confidants). Sounds simple enough, but why would dominate the feelings in a simpler world, everything would everything would be easy but dull.
• The second option ( which I have chosen on occasion and still am not sure if I regret it), is to let it all happen because you're convinced that reason and the romantic fantasies around your head are just that, fantasies. To soften things up a bit I call it wisdom or realism, call my friends call it stupidity (tomato tomato). To expose a resounding roche when to have their friendship is better than nothing. In the diner still dreaming that sometime it is he who dares to change the course of their relationship but eventually you learn to live with that feeling of seeing and not have it. "Pathetic is not? but it is the choice you make, you choose to protect rather than suffer and I think that's not bad, it's just less risky or is already good, something funky. You always say, you'll regret more than I did not do than what it is and may be true but we have to wait until the end of our days to be sure.

not advise it for obvious reasons I'm not indicated and it is appreciated if someone has a third option on how to proceed in these situations. Meanwhile, some will be launching hoping that the pool is not empty, another preferred look away until the illusions fade with time.
