Notice how one feels excited at a new toy, food, clothing etc.? After a while, say a week or two, maybe even months the same feeling is gone for the "new toy" or food.
I think the chemical in one's body builds up and there is a saturation point where the body begins to reject the chemical or vision or whatever. I think that is how "familiarity breeds contempt" comes from. The body needs variety and small doses of one's favorite. One can't eat lobster day in day out. You would puke after a few months of lobster. I experienced that.
I think human relationship also follows this phenomenon.
Any comments?
