Are you implying that you have a better grasp of reality than I do Soup?

All I know is that in “my world”, I was happy when my W loved me and I loved her. Life was no bed of roses before I met her, and she didn’t transform it into a bed of roses, but it was good.

One could argue that the happiness I derived from her love wasn’t real because it came from “external sources.” I simply don’t care where it came from. It was there, and that’s good enough for me.

OK. So now I don’t have that anymore. I have the choice of waiting on the eventuality that I get it back, or stopping myself from wanting it.

To answer your questions:

So, in the context of DBing, what things do you think you need to do to achieve either of the above choices?

Nothing.

And what's keeping you from doing them?

Nothing.
