Insecurity is there only when there is desire in the relationship. And desire, as you know, is self-centered. Are you relating with the other for your own personal pleasure or gain or happiness? Then does the relationship have much substance at all? And if it doesn’t have much substance, what is it that you are trying to secure?
On one hand, you are saying the relationship is valuable; on the other hand, you are saying it is fragile and vulnerable. These two don’t go together. If it is valuable, then it cannot be vulnerable. And if it is vulnerable, if it is prone to influences, to conditions, to the changing weathers, to mood swings, then what value is there in it anyway?
