Buying is the climax
A buddy and I talk about this. The researching, window shipping, and dreaming about it is the foreplay. The actual purchase is the intercourse, then the receiving of the goods is the post-nut shame with buyers remorse.
I had (have) a major issue with retail therapy.
Buying is the first bang. It’s exciting and fun. But it’s nowhere near the climax. For me, the longer I have a watch and the more I love it and the more life I live wearing it, the better it gets and the more enjoyment I get from it. There is no peak, it just grows slowly and patiently.
