As a kid, when you lose or break a toy, you -often- just go ahead and replace it.
But as a grown person, when you have a certain person around you -someone you loved, or who changed your life or at least was part of it- and you lose them, your mind stops thinking about the loss, it just start giving you orders to just replace them with something new… it'll make more sense now:
Let's say a girl loses her father in a divorce or death etc. when she grows up she tries to replace him with an older man, or a man that has some similarities with her lost father, or just someone around her to protect her and be a father-figure. It differs from a person to another.
It's not always fathers, it can be a sibling, a friend, even someone you meet in kindergarten… you never know who your twisted mind picks for this!
I mean, it's textbook psychology, everyone knows this. But what I recently realized by observing for at the last week that it's in everyone of us! No one really notices it or discovers why they do certain things, they'd think that it's their personality -of course it is- but do they know where it came from? or why they're like that?
I just find it weird and funny when I realize such things about others and myself…
Make sure you don't try to replace someone who made a difference in your life with the wrong person, then you'll just end up broken.
