Munich,

The story of your aunt is a perfect example. Just as some people are driven to gamble, some suddenly start to wonder if they could have had something more andf gamble away what they do have to try for something better. Sometimes the fantasy that your aunt had is attractive because it is easier than dealing with the problems and responsibilities of any relationship. In many ways it is like a person who always quits their job at the first office difficulty assuming they can find something better elsewhere.
