In the past 52 days, you had 216,417 interactions with the same man, all romantic in nature.
Exactly.
And I— 216,000. Do you see that number right there? 216,000. Exactly.
And they were all romantic in nature. I mean, I could have these conversations, but they didn't mean anything to me at all.
That's a lot of energy to put in someone else. 216 to say that it doesn't mean anything else. This other guy you were talking to, his emotions are fully involved in you. He is fully attached and you know that. So it's kind of hard for you now to say, well, I'm doing it in spite because that means you're playing with people's emotions.
