I have misplaced feelings on a person based on an idea that was false to begin with. Instead of wanting to see them and never running into them, I don’t want to see them and now they are always around. The problem is all these emotions I was feeling for the other person are now attached to this interloper, along with a different set of emotions that are based on my actual experience with interacting with them. There is no common ground between the first set of emotions and the second and it’s creating this complex and heightened emotional state whenever I am in the presence of this stranger. I wish for a simple life but this is what I get.
