Moulin Rouge and the egocentric one

- The greatest thing in life is to love and be loved in return his is a “Moulin Rouge” quote, have you seen the movie?  
- Yes I know and I loved the movie, but isn’t it true? No matter how much you’ve loved someone, the greatest achievement is to be loved by him in return. 
- Get over it, there is the love from your parents, your siblings, your friends. Who cares about other kinds of love? I love you. Is this not enough for you? 
- No, it is not. I guess. Why can’t I be loved? By this special someone?
-  Wait, he is not, definetely not, the special someone. He is just someone. But surely not that special.
-   I love him.
-    No, you don’t. You re just an egocentric person who wants to be loved just because you’ve decided so. You love the idea of being loved.  And you ‘re just too selfish to give unconditional love even if that means you don’t get anything back.
-   Maybe this is the case. But what about all the dreams that we made together? I loved and believed every single dream we made together.

You know I have to tolerate the torture of passing by his house every day to and from my work. I look at his window. He might not be living there anymore. But I keep looking as if he was there, waiting for me to go and see him.  I dream of all the evenings we won’t share anymore. And he might be in there with someone else. But I keep looking as if he was there to greet me.
