About This Quote
The premise behind this quote is that some people value those they desire more than those they value. In other words, some people put their own desires before those of others. They may go as far as to ignore those they love. The unfortunate truth is that some people will do more than simply want you.
They will care about you and will make you a priority in their lives. However, there are those who care less about you and more about themselves.
