The Hedgehog Dilemma

"The hedgehog's dilemma states that the closer two beings come to each other, the more likely they are to hurt one another; however if they remain apart, they will each feel the pain of loneliness.

This comes from the idea that hedgehogs have spines on their backs. If they come close to one another, the spines of each will hurt the other.

This is analogous to a relationship between two human beings. If two people come to care about and trust each other, something bad that happens to one of them will hurt the other as well, and dishonesty between the two could cause even greater problems."

I dunno what the hell I'm doing anymore, I should go to bed. I gotta go teach tomorrow and I don't really feel like it.

My hand is hurting...
