So many questions about relationships, about partnerships and the like, since I've arrived here. For those that choose to engage in such things, I suppose my primary question to you is why.

This is a world where affection is a commodity; I would think it more beneficial to most to treat it as such. There seems to be little point in dedicating oneself to others that are in just as much of a coerced situation, short of making it seem slightly more bearable.

While I'm sure this will be harped on as pointlessly cynical by those with nothing better to do, I consider it more a point of curiosity. It's interesting to me that some will invest themselves so fully into something that essentially doesn't matter – to the world or otherwise.


[...It's not so much cynical as it is making you sound at least mildly like a psychopath, Wesker, but whatever.]

Brainwashing combined with cultural norms and tricking people into circumstances where they don't see a proper way out due to said brainwashing.

Not stuff to emulate.
