NO CONDITION IS PERMANENT [Episode #511 ~ 09-26-26]

It is said that many men like it when the woman takes the initiative. If it is a one-night stand, why not? But if you imagine a long-term relationship with that person, you’ll avoid risking annoying them with premature fixations of love. Taking the first step presumes great trust in your power of seduction, and an equal measure of confidence, and even recklessness sometimes! And when you are exclusively drawn to men with thick protective armor like me, the fear of giving oneself away at an inopportune moment, or of getting bogged down in the quicksand of their ambiguity, also blocks momentum. I was not yet mature enough to be aware of the complementary nature of neuroses that is the basis of attractions; I could not imagine that the crippling flaws I ascribed to myself had their equivalent in the other person, but contributed to what I found attractive in him. I only sensed that absence, as well as too much distance, risked fulfilling the budding desire I wished to inspire. How to find the happy medium? Overcoming the real or imaginary obstacles that stand between an attraction and its fulfillment is definitely no easy task. Talk about mission impossible! But it is the only one that has ever attracted me …
— Françoise Hardy, The Despair of Monkeys and Other Trifles.
