Hmmmm....

Everybody wants what they can't have. That's what makes something such a great desire. Its like that commercial that out about having EXPERIENCE. If you got it, you don't need it. If you want it, you dont have it. If you want it, but you dont have it, then you need it. But how does this desire become bittersweet or have a love/hate feeling? Lets say you desire to have a special someone. You want them, you need them. And after wanting and needing them for so long, you finally get them. Which is sweet of course. But you dont know how sweet it is. It could be horrible. The person you longed for and wanted so much could be someone totally different than what you expected them to be. Which would be bitter and horrible.

For some, this desire for a something is what motivates them. Its what keeps them moving forward and creating hope for the next day. Some love this desire for the challenge of it. This is what I thought about after reading the bittersweet and the part about love/hate. I had this friend who would want a certain girl to like him. He would send all the right messages, and eventually the girl would come around and start to like him too. Well, this was all he needed I guess because after he would find out that she liked him he would move on and lose interest. He lived for the challenge of it. Weird I know. And after this love and liking for the girl he would completely go away. Which left the girl hating him of course.
