    "That allows you to see the person for who they really are; fears, faults, unattractive parts. Maybe he smells, he doesn't dress well, he's rude, he picks his nose, he doesn't comb his hair, he chews with his mouth open. That's what you have to do. That helps you to uncrush and allows the obsession to go away."
