"I don't know. If being in love
only made people more lonely,
why would everyone want it so much?
"Because of the illusion. You fall in love,
it's intoxicating, and for a little while
you feel like you've actually become one
with the other person. Merged souls and
so on. You think you'll never be lonely
again. Only it doesn't last and soon you
realize you can only get so close, and you
end up brutally disappointed, more
alone than every, because the illusion -
the hope you'd help on to all those years
- has been shattered."
