Dismiss me from this kind of love

No, I, of course, do not insist, you have the right to have your point of view, but, nevertheless, it seems to me that a strong all-consuming feeling is a pathological phenomenon and, by no means, does not benefit anyone who experiences it nor to society as a whole (forgive me for such pompousness).

You ask me

So, waking up one Saturday morning, Sasha suddenly realized how deeply he was in trouble. He had never experienced this before. This feeling fell on him, like a strong and insidious animal watching, and, literally, tore him apart. Now he understood what it meant to be possessed. This feeling, this powerful instinct dominated and commanded them, paralyzing their own will. To some extent, it scared him, but he did not try to resist it. And obeying him was both sweet and painful. It hurts that Tanya did not even know about his feelings, and especially because she was clearly not indifferent to another boy, also Sasha's classmate. And Sasha was not at all happy about the coming weekend, as it happened before. He was killed by the thought that he would not see her, hear her wonderful voice for two whole days. He scolded himself for what the light was on for not knowing her address and phone number earlier. He was ready to cry from resentment.

He needed her like air! But there are no desperate situations for people who are possessed. He remembered that in the class journal, on the last page, the addresses of all the students were written, and he knew that at school, even on weekends, there was always someone.

"The boldness of the city takes", what else can I say. Unable to endure this torment, he went to school, learned the same "classmate's address" and went straight to her house. He didn’t remember his heart pounding so hard when he walked up to her on the fifth floor. He was drawn to her so much that it did not matter to him that he went uninvited, and that he did not know the words to justify his visit. He walked simply because he could no longer resist this something that possessed him.

Of course, she was terribly surprised, and immediately guessed everything, although she did not show it. They stayed with her until the evening, just chatting about everything, and she made a discovery for herself that she was interested in Sasha. But she was in love with another, even if he did not pay attention to her! And Sasha, for his part, unconsciously, but more and more persistently, provoked her to a reciprocal feeling, began to visit her house often, joked sweetly, taught her to play the guitar …

I don’t know how you would have solved this dilemma that arose in front of her, if you were in her place, but she never coped with it, and spent almost the entire last quarter of the school year in a psychiatric clinic. And okay, if that were the end of it, she's still there quite often. You will probably ask me: "What about Sasha?" But nothing. I suffered, of course, terribly, but soon everything passed. It passed so suddenly, as if someone had removed the invisible shackles in one fell swoop.

It should be noted that this tale ended still relatively innocently. But you remember Shakespeare and tell me now, do we need such love? Personally, no.
