FORTY FOUR

Recap

She goes down the drain with the Crushes that lead to nowhere. Because of how often we are turned down, most of us are still single. We're either too ugly or too beautiful. We're both too ugly for anyone, not even a fish, to notice us, yet too beautiful for anyone to think we're single. As soon as they find out, it's as if you were lying all along. The opposite should be true. Everyone, regardless of appearance, deserves to be appreciated. Most of us don't have significant others because we can't afford to be with someone who would love us enough to help us get forward financially and personally. Others of us are too wealthy to trust anyone. Some wealthy people mistakenly assume their partner loves them primarily for their money, which can generate anxiety in the relationship. They worry that they won't ever find someone who will love them for who they really are, and that this will lead to a lonely death.
