Great explanation, in terms of the time required to detox!

Corollary 1: don’t make up before 3 weeks are over, it is just your addiction talking. Wank one off if you have to.

Corollary 2: if you do make up, the detox clock gets reset, so when you do break up again, you lose up to the full three weeks of your current detox time.

Since the lost detox time maximizes at 3 weeks, it is more efficient, as a fraction of your time since break up, to wait for much longer than 3 weeks before making up. In which case, why make up at all?
