So, of course, _logically_ nobody should fall in love, because sometimes
you need them to act one way, but they need to act another, and you have
no right to force them to do anything.
The fact that people still do fall in love says something about humanity.
Not logical? Of course. Optimistic? Yes, essentially, even you, celine;
the _really_ pessimistic people get off the bus altogether (of course, its
all relative). The ability of people to fall in love is basically a statement
of hope.
I'm going to bed.
