So I had a great but odd weekend in SF. I came back with only slighty less money, a lot less Acid a phone #
and a lot more cocaine


From stoner to cokehead.

Dude. You're really meta in this discussion and I talk out of a pragmatic pov. I do not disagree with you, but I still believe we have much more control over our feelings. It just becomes too spiritual and determinstic for my liking.
Maybe the two spheres aren't 100% bifurcated. But the evidence of people who grew attached to someone else against their intentions, thinking they put the safety brakes on in place to prevent that from happening, are far too numerous. You could say that they aren't very good at controlling their feelings and thus why they failed at their original aims or goals.
But what creates or kills emotional attachment to someone just doesn't fit a logical framework of reasoning and deliberation. I think people like to think they can master it, the way they think they can hack their diets and sleep cycles. But emotions are different.
They do have maids and hemorrhoid treatment though
