Ettachment

Although most people are unwilling to admit, I'm sure the feeling of ettachment is a common experience. One can only feel ettachment if it is from something or someone they have never met or will likely never meet again. It is better explained using examples:

1) You have been riding in a car for hours- most likely on some traffic jammed highway-. The car directly in front has been there for the whole god-awful experience and yet, as soon as that Ford Focus (or whatever it may be) turns off the freeway, you cant help but be a bit sad to see it go- a feeling of ettachment.

2) You go to some large theme park or zoo etc. and continually run into the same family or group of people- you may even get on a friendly "Hello again-" basis. As soon as you leave or see that group leavel; once again that familiar feeling of ettachment.
