When you can’t get intimate, when you run or hide from closeness, all you can do is compete—rank yourself incessantly. Competition is easier, but a poor substitute for love, caring, concern, empathy, selflessness, vulnerability and friendship—truly hurting when another hurts, and feeling their joy alike. When you live to compete, you may win, but the victory is yours alone.
