I think the most frustrating thing is when it seems like it should be so easy, like when you're watching some romantic comedy where the guy and the girl can't quite seem to find each other at the right place or at the right time and you just want to reach in there and grab them by their collars and scream at them, "They've been there the whole time!" Because it really should be that easy and isn't it that easy? What is really getting in the way? How can two people with mouths and relatively similar cognitive experiences and seemingly mutual feelings for each other not find a way? Because isn't that what we all are here for in the end? Biologically and evolutionarily, the odds should be in our favor. If what separates us from animals is our cognition and supposed intellect, is that what also holds us back? The human condition of shame, of ego, of pride, of fear, and of vulnerability?
