God this is a great article. I feel like it reminds me that all we really are in the end are just an evolved sort of ape. We are just monkeys living on this planet in search for two things, food and sex. Our instinctual desires guide our everyday actions whether or not we realize it. Seeing that we can't even be friends with women without thinking of them in another light reveals how little we have control of our own lives. Our instincts and what we don't yet understand about our brains are what is in control. Not that I'm saying this is a bad thing, we've survived long enough thanks to them. I just think it's interesting that to this day even seeing how modern we've become, that we still can't help ourselves when it comes to love.
