The bitter part of him makes the sweet part of him. He cannot exist without the other.

If he were nice to you all the time, caring, COOKS for you instead, works tireless for you; my...you'd think he's quite the bore and dump him for the next bad boy who comes your way.

What love you feel for him is part and parcel with the trouble you go through for him. So go figure. It takes two hands to clap.
