This American Life

A recent episode of "This American Life" discussed the subject of breakups, and oddly enough Phil Collins pointed out something very true, and very personally relevant that I hadn't realized before. In a breakup it's not always necessarily true that you miss the person as much as you feel, but you had so much emotion invested in them, you felt so much when you were with them, and perhaps what you miss most of all is feeling that much about something.
