Once upon a time, Mr Douglass went to the zoo and decided to get a monkey. The said monkey was desirable, looking beautiful without possessing a monkey-like looks. He so much loved the monkey like she was a girl he would have asked her out. He cherished the monkey. Saying that he fell in love with the monkey unconditional was an understatement.

monkey was fiercely looking and ran out to drag the baby doll with the monkey. "This is my baby doll not a banana," she cried.

Why does negative behaviour continue?

It works. There is some kind of payoff, some type of momentary satisfaction that is derived from not changing. The reward might be financial or psychological. Some people will continue unproductive behaviour to seek approval, acceptance, praise, or love. Others continue their unacceptable actions out of pride, greed or a sense of personal fulfilment. They may oppress others with their need to always be right because they treasure being right- even if it destroys a relationship.

Reasons why opposites Attract each other
