Drama, anyday!

It is human nature to crave for the things we do not have and the moment we get them to moan about calling them upon ourselves.

The majority of us love drama. We absolutely love it when things take a dramatic turn in our lives, a little hay wire is only enjoyed more.

Take this conversation for example:
'I'm so bored now, I cannot live with myself. How I wish I did not break up!'
'Oh my,you have no idea what you're saying. He treated you like a door mat. I'm so glad you are out of it.'
'Well yes, but you know, now that I don't have him I'm starting to realise that I liked my life more when he was in it. He gave me shit, but then at least something was happening in my life. He made me cry, we fought... but my life was eventful.'

I could not believe this. Here was a person who just got freedom from a bondage that could have scarred her for life (and maybe already has in tiny ways)sitting next to me, telling me she wants it all back! Seriously? Why in the world would anyone want to get back into something that was full of lame fights and arguments, which at the end of the day made her feel horrible?

Soon enough I realized why. She missed the attention she was showered with. She missed being the reason to mess up some body else's mood and day. She missed having so much control and power over some one else. She missed being such an important part of someone else's life.

People will tell you being single is the most sensible way to be. If yes, then why are all these people in relationships? If it really is so sensible, I say walk out of your relationship. But no. One relationship after the other, they go on and on to have more.

Apart from the fact that as humans we have it in us to love and be loved, we also thoroughly love the drama that enfolds when we are in a relationship. Even if it makes us feel miserable, we would still rather have the drama than not have any of it at all. Please, don't deny this!
