I don't do sadness

People say that misery loves company, but to what extent? Recently I was watching an episonde of Will and Grace in which Will and Grace are trying to get pregnant. Grace; however, meets someone before the act is finished. She feels that this person might be the ONE. She asks Will to wait just one month for her to try out this new guy. Will get's angry and gives her to ultimatum, either we do it tomorrow or not at all... Why would he do this? The thing is that Will is not happy! And he cannot stand it when Grace is, misery loves company. But to what extent? They were best friends, when you love someone don't you want them to be happy? When does the line get drawn... Why is it that even a best friend will do anything to keep you miserable?
Along that subject: why do we keep ourselves unhappy? Last night I went on a drive with a dear friend who told me that she was in love with two boys, one was constant, he loved her, he took care of her, he was so good to/for her. The other is horrible, he was not constant, he may have loved her, but it was a selfish lusty kind of love, he did not take care of her, and he definately was not good for her. But, she continued to tell me, the thing is that she loves them both, but, at the moment, the one she wants the most is the one that is not good for her? Why is that? Then today as I was watching Pushing Daisies I had a revalation, I know another TV reference I'm lame, but on this show there is one character that will not let her self be happy. Why? Then I began to think, is there some kind of comfort or safety in being unhappy?
Here is my conclusion- There is comfort, oddly, in being unhappy. When you are happy you expect happy things from the world, and what happens when those happy things don't happen, we are let down, which in most cases is worse than never expecting the happy things to begin with. Those of us that are unhappy are that way because we feel comfortable there, and we can't be let down. If you always expect things to be bad you don't have to get your hopes let down. And for my dear friend with the man troubles I think the reason you prefer the bad boy is that he is constantly mean, and with the good guy, I wonder if you fear that one day he will turn on you, and in a sense that will be worse than him being bad all along... oh dear I feel that my point might not be so easy to understand... let's see if I can say it simply... People like being unhappy because then they never have to live with the fear of being let down. How was that? Hopefully it was alright and understandable. ha
