why is it so hard to make someone stay?

there are many reasons that may lead to this question.. its hard to make a friend, loved one, relatives to stay at your side... maybe you are thinking that if you asked the person not to go... your too selfish because you only want the person to yourself... maybe...

are we really selfish?

are we afraid of letting go of a person for our own sake?

but why?

simply because some people are afraid of walking on their own shadow without the person they want to be with... maybe we dont have enough self confidence and courage to stand even if our knees are wounded and our body's too fraile... we should keep in mind that maybe its all psychological ( is the spelling right? anyone? ) if we tend not to think about someone leaving us.. maybe we can still feel the prescence of this person... not physically but emotionally...

or people are just plain selfish...

are we?
