When people get extremely attached to someone and then that person leaves or something happens, it seems instead of wanting to transfer that hope, dependency, etc back to yourself (which is where it was in the first place) it’s easier to try and put it on someone else and become attached again. Almost as if you don’t trust yourself with your own hope, love, etc. Or maybe we just forget that that’s where those feelings and things belong in the first place because things were so much better and more alive when they were tied to this other person. Or maybe the person you first gave these things to changed them in a way or took some with them when they left. So instead of creating anew off of what’s left we continue to live off of partials. Until we meet someone new to add their own twist to our hope love dreams expectations etc. but maybe that’s supposed to happen. Maybe we are supposed to be molded by each other to such an extent that it’s only natural to do this and to want to do this. In the same way people shape us, we shape them. We build and merge with someone and they add a piece on or take one away as we do the same to them. Then we separate, not being the same people we once were. We are a new kind of partial whole. Then we meet someone new who appreciates this and it starts over. I can’t tell if it’s better to take down the pieces people placed on us and rebuild the ones they took or embrace the change. The emptiness of some missing parts and the newness of the additional pieces....
