safe distance

The man is living the life of my dreams.
The female protagonist said that she wanted to be like the male protagonist, no one sees you, no talks.

Very few people really enjoy being alone. More often, you just need to withdraw from the hustle and bustle of people, withdraw from the complicated social relationships, leave a short time for yourself, remove all roles, and restore to the most authentic and unburdened self.
What you enjoy is a moment of solitude, not the eternal loneliness of the rest of your life on a desert island.
As for people, most of them rely on various relationships and fetters to survive. Maybe that will deprive you of the corresponding freedom, but it will also bring you what you need. As the old saying goes, "no desire is strong", desire will bring you a lot of things, even heavier than it itself, such as worrying about gains and losses, such as being unable to extricate yourself and so on. The world is too big for us, and life is too short compared to the life of the earth, so desires are always endless and endless.
As a result, all kinds of people appear in life, playing different roles.

A wife satisfies your desire for stability, a lover satisfies your desire for romantic passion, children satisfies your desire for continuation of life, and a friend satisfies your desire for fame, fortune, and freedom from loneliness.

Humans are very utilitarian animals.

People don't seem to need superfluous roles. People have such and such a positioning for everyone around them, even down to gun friends, ambiguous objects, and distinguish between different roles of physical derailment and spiritual derailment. That kind of role that is not tied to each other and only exists in each other's lives probably does not exist.
The male and female protagonists seem to be this kind of existence that is not tied to each other. They don't know each other's names, identities, and backgrounds. They talk very little. They just eat, drink, and listen to music together. They are careful not to cross the thunder pool. They think Both are fond of loneliness.
In fact, they yearn for company more than anyone else, under the premise of the so-called safe distance. They all pretended that they didn't want to know each other and didn't want to be close to each other, and they tasted the love that was just like the world after a little drunk, which was blurrier than reality and clearer than dreams.
The male protagonist failed in the end, so he chose to die. After he found that the heroine began to slowly enter his world and he was powerless to push away, he chose death cowardly and decisively. He can't really insist on living a lonely life, and the heroine, she said goodbye to everything she used to, escape from the indifference of human nature and all kinds of bad parts, she thought that maybe she could like such a lonely journey, but she was still silent During the company, he took the initiative to the man.
Humans are such unstable animals, and a small temptation can make the cowardly self who needs company to show its true shape.

In the end, I found out that maybe we don't like a song, a book, or even sunshine or night, we just like someone related to it.
