Ayn, you are chasing a fairytale senario without being able to articulate the storyline. Then, right in the middle of the podcast, a car wreck happens. What a perfectly timed analogy for all of us listening in.
Chemda, by the way, the couple of questions that you got in in the first 45 minutes were totally on target from my point of view. You just sold one relationship book.
Keith, nice music library. Ayces.

There is a book about love languages that can help you learn to see this type of thing. Then later, you can pick a partner that can work with you. If the relationship is worth it, then see if you can figure it out. Ayn says "more", but she doesn't want more, she wants different. If the relationship isn't worth it, I still recommend looking into the book.
I'm of the opinion that everyone needs to date someone crazy for a while, just to force them to learn about themselves and how to pick a decent partner. Eventually, the line from the standup bit about "you can't fuck a crazy girl sane" will make sense to you, and certain things in life will be a lot clearer to you.
My wife tells her friends that get into serial monogamy with crazy relationships that they need to figure out who they are as a single person first and be HAPPY with it. The rest will come.
And I'll be watching for the release of the KATG relationship book. Chemda showed some pretty good insight before she decided it was more fun to watch the trainwreck than playing couples counselor.
