What You Can't Have

"You know why you're fixated on her?"

"No, why?" the question was more of a challenge. "All right, Ms. Psychology, analyze me," his tone said.

"Because you can't have her. You're so used to getting any woman you want that when on comes along that doesn't throw herself at you then you find her irresistible."

"I don't get any woman I want!" he countered. "I haven't had sex since moving out here!"

We went on to argue that he hadn't slept with anyone, not because he couldn't, but because he really didn't want to.

As much as he protests initially, Bill is always fascinated by my observations. I'm glad I am the only one obsessively psychoanalyzing me (well, at least that I know about).
