That's the trouble with caring about anybody, you begin to feel overprotective. Then you begin to feel crowded

John Updike, a prolific American author known for his keen observations of human nature, often explored the complexities of relationships in his works. One of the recurring themes in his writing is the idea that caring for someone can lead to feelings of overprotection and suffocation. This sentiment is beautifully encapsulated in the quote, “That's the trouble with caring about anybody, you begin to feel overprotective. Then you begin to feel crowded.”
