least like what we are not

the one thing wrong in any situation is the thing that is least like you.


aka


the one thing that seems wrong in any situation is the thing that I perceive to be the least like I perceive myself to be.


we never disagree with things that are like we are.


we will continue to be more like we are if we do not perceive that what we are or perceive ourselves to be is not what it is or seems to suggest.


we must consider that what we suggest that we are is likely what we are not, yet although seemingly right.


we are least like what we are not which is the one thing wrong in any situation.

  1. “If online dating can blunt the emotional pain of separation, if adults can afford to be increasingly demanding about what they want from a relationship, the effect of online dating seems positive. But what if it’s also the case that the prospect of finding an ever more compatible mate with the click of a mouse means a future of relationship instability, a paradox of choice that keeps us chasing the illusive bunny around the dating track?”
