When you hope in vain and
you know it and thats the worst part.
You know that what you are hoping for won't happen and yet you keep at it. It's like Cuddy waiting for Dr.House to change but deep inside she knows he won't.
Cuddy: House, I am scared that I'll die, everyone is telling me that
you won't visit me but I know you will, I have faith in you.
*House doesn't visit Cuddy at the hospital*
People: Told you so
Cuddy: No, you're wrong, he'll come around someday
*House doesn't visit Cuddy at hospital yet she keeps on waiting*
People: I admire your
optimism Cuddy, but
you know its blind optism, don't you?
