Quoted from "Just Good Friends"-Joyce Huggett
"One of the reasons why we suffer from a lack of love is that we pin all our hopes and expectations of intimacy on ONE person. We expect that one person to satisfy all our needs; intellectual, recreational, spiritual and social.
Thus, we fail to realize that such an all-sufficient being does not exist. They must be met through several persons."
(Note: This sentence does not mean that I’m promoting polygamy...)
"By burdening one friend with such high hopes and expectations we are strangling the relationship, pushing it closer to the edge."
