We Have Unfinished Business
The Zeigarnik effect in love
Have you ever felt that you had unfinished business with someone? That you met for a reason, that goes beyond what you experienced already? That no matter how improbable, or irrational it might seem, there has to be more to it? Not knowing what more exactly means, if you are supposed to fall in love, or have some more fantastic sex or spend the rest of your lives together?
Have you ever felt that it cannot yet be the end of it?
“Everything will be alright in the end so if it is not alright it is not the end.”
I love this, from The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel… the mantra of every single romantic ever born…
But seriously… Hearts, bodies, minds, chemistry… it’s a tricky business. I don’t even want to get there.
Overthinking is bad for you.
Pining for someone is not healthy.
Texting someone first, as a woman is not right.
I hear you! I hear y‘all.
Who are you talking to? My brain? Oh, he knows it all. Yes, he. I think my brain is a guy… he is cold and ruthless and rational. He knows what is right and what is wrong. He sees the world as it is. He doesn’t fall for random things, he is grounded…
