Hook

Have you ever had someone say, "Yes, absolutely—on one tiny condition"? You think you are reaching an agreement, only to realize the fine print contains so many strings, caveats, and emotional tripwires that you are not actually free at all. Imagine a partner saying, "Sure, we can break up, as long as you promise never to drink coffee at our favorite café again, never speak to my family, and never move on with your life."

That is not closure. That is control masquerading as an exit ramp.
