Put into system, one can fairly accurately conclude that my need for love and affirmation occurs about once every six months, lasting 1-2 weeks every time, during which I soak up attention and behaviour I find revolting during the rest of the year.
For a maximum of 4 weeks out of 52 I want this. 48 weeks out of 52, I'm by far better off alone.
I wonder if I could rephrase and turn this into an ad.
