John and Jane met some time ago and felt a connection, unfortunately, Jane feels she has to give John a hard time in other to be valued more. John keeps trying very hard to get Jane to even bond with him normally but she values her pride more than love.

Another couple Smith and Susan with a similar history and similar chemistry meet and both parties agree to give normalcy a shot.
Smith and Susan are doing so fine, in due time even John and Jane start to notice and want to be like them. Jane however is not willing to compromise and John has no choice, he either has to take the ration he's been given or walk away.

Love won't let him walk away, but the terms and conditions that come with the bond makes him feel Jane might never put aside the pride even for love.
John knows that even Jane wants their love to be like that of Smith and Susan, but her principles and those of Susan differ greatly.

Jane is sometimes cold and unresponsive, both in character or even at fun and passionate moments and sometimes John has to patiently sit back and listen to the tales of happiness and success between his friends and their partners and he enviously feels like luck is no longer friends with him
Comparison is not his aim, understanding is his goal, however Jane is not making things easy at all for John. Can there be fullness of such a love which exists between John and Jane, the answer might be no and that is because the actions taken will trigger different set of reactions.

The summary

Everyone (both gents and ladies) hope to someday fall in love with "the one" and finally get a taste of perfection they so desire, but do you know sometimes when we don't let love run it's course naturally, when we try to always manipulate it's input and output hoping for a personal favorable result, it sometimes end in tales of woe?

When I say personal favorable result, I mean manipulating it to suit our selfish agenda almost 100% without giving a second thought for the implication of such actions.
People don't know when you won't let love run it's true course, love won't let you run your own course. Guys value simplicity, simplicity meaning something which is allowed to run a natural course.

Someone jokingly said "it's a man's world" I rebuked that statement saying it's a woman's world actually. When asked to justify that statement, I cited some examples:

• Helen of Troy sparked a war because of beauty.
• Cleopatra brought great men to their knees because of her ability to manipulate men.
• Julia Agrippina also caused the naming of her son as Emperor through seduction
  One thing the numerous people who manipulated love to suit their own comfort without regard for the other person or compromise, have in common is that it ended badly.

Love is like neurons in the brain, manipulation creates a damage to the pathway, but usually, the neurons try to reconnect and find another pathway.
