With the cure, relationships are all the same, and rules and expectations are defined. Without the cure, relationships must be reinvented every day, languages constantly decoded and deciphered. Freedom is exhausting.

About This Quote

Relationships are all the same, and rules and expectations are defined. When you have a relationship that is defined by rules and expectations, there is no room for growth. It is not unknown that relationships become less desirable when things get more predictable. Expectations can be very difficult to meet which can cause relationship disillusionment.

One of the most common complaints in relationships is the issue of boredom; the act of day-to-day living becomes boring after a while. Boredom can lead to frustration or anger.
