Story

Once there was a girl
Once there was a boy
The girl adored the boy, spent her time trying to please him because that pleased her.
One day the girl grew wings and wanted to fly.
The boy clipped her wings.
He didn't understand she only wanted to spread them, not fly away forever.
Now she dreams of nothing else.

It's a fine line between spreading and potentially flying away, for the person without the wings.

N - all my wisdom was gleaned in the school of hard knocks. It is now my mission in life to stop anyone else having to go there.
