Love is a disease.
You find yourself thinking, desperately, "Haven't heard her voice in eight hours. Something's wrong..."
And then the morbid list of possibilities:
- She doesn't love you anymore.
- She's out with another lover.
- You've offended her and she's not speaking to you.
- She's forgotten all about you.
- She got hit by a meteor.
When the truth is that she's busy at work, or she told you she'd be out with friends, or it quite simply hasn't occurred to her that you require the constant stream of small assurances.
