Things Wong Kar-wai Taught Me About Love

* Requited love is an impossibility.
*You will fall in love only once. Obstacles will prevail. The rest of your life is spent recovering.
*Eroticising their possessions will be the pinnacle of your sexual fulfilment.
*Anything that distracts you from the pain of your loss is good. Some people are more successful in this regard than others.
*Hook up with someone. Live with them. Sleep with them. Tag along. Don't be fooled. You are only a transitory distraction. Ask for commitment. Declare your love. Watch the setup evaporate.
*The most potent way to exist is to occupy someone else's imagination.
*Desire is kept eternally alive by the impossibility of contact.
*Modern communication enabling technologies will only heighten your sense of desolation by making you more keenly aware of the fact that no one is trying to call.
