This image reminded me of a very powerful life experience I had.
I have been single for years and I recently met a girl. She presented herself as a spiritual seeker. I let this label distort my view and desire was quick to take over.
Pendulum swings and the situation got very messy very fast. Blinded by passion and emotion, my ego started to solidify again under constant pressure to perform the role of the "boyfriend".
Luckily I broke things off after a few months because I literally got physically ill from this massive spiritual backsliding. I had a headache which lasted 2 weeks and ended minutes after I said my final goodbye.
It made me realize that every romantic relationship no matter what is possessive to a degree. It's the very basis of what a relationship is. An attachment. You cling onto the imaginary label and can only get disillusioned. Only relationship that can form without attachments is a friendly one.
