My absolute favorite line: downplay the letdown and up-play the gratitude. That’s my takeaway from this. The whole story was wonderful! Thank you for this. 👏🏾👏🏾
Does this mostly happen to men? I don’t find this happens to me. When I want things and actually go for them, I’m so happy to have them indefinitely. But I see this a ton with my brother and father, always looking for different cars and bigger boats, gadgets, houses, and more, more, more. I think this maybe has to do with testosterone and the drive to hunt, possess, and conquer. I could be wrong though.
Agreed. And I find many women equally want someone to just do things for them so they can lay around and feel loved, not have to do to much, so it kind of works out well for the heteronormative.

Hi Charlotte, I think it's one of the defining traits of guys. That kind of hunger.

Exactly lol
Generalizing of course. Always outliers.
A great piece, Maurice. Thank you. And by the way, my first car was a Buick Invicta. You'll have to Google that one, for sure!
