Why Dreamers Make Poor Partners

It was suggested to me tonight that my own 'what if's' will always be nearly irresistible to me, and consequently, that I will always resent those things which feel as though they bar me from pursuing exactly what I want, when I want. I think this is insightful and has quite a bit of truth to it.

It was also suggested to me, by someone else, that I am immature. I tend to agree, but I don't feel bad about it. In some ways, I strive to be immature; in fact, sometimes when people suggest 'growing up,' especially in that snarky tone often reserved for the admonition, it sounds to me like they're saying, 'Give up. Compromise who you are and what you're seeking and embrace folding.' I don't wanna.
