    I can't stand ultimatums, particularly not in connection with emotional decisions. The person giving an ultimatum in necessarily the stronger one and is taking advantage of this position.

      Lucky is the ugly duckling. Keep that in mind and don't envy the pretty duckling. The dizzy pursuit of pleasure the pretty duckling succumbs to, does not tempt you constantly. You have time to think, to be alone, to be lonely, to read, to make friends, to help other people. You'll be a happy swan. Just wait and see.
