Description:

Affliction was a moment of nostalgic self-pity, with a conclusion built-into the image.

It is a moment of self-reflection, evaluating what seems to be a perpetual singleness, while also recognizing my own contribution to that misfortune.

However, the what and hows of those contributions are not presented here; but instead, the cause (which is a self-inflicted wound) and the effect (of feeling unwanted).
