>does it get better?
You could be desperately hoping for it to get better. Or you could not give a flying f*ck what it did, which clearly would be different, because then you would have hope inside you, rather than wishing things would get better.
I can remember when I was 17 or so, I was with a girlfriend, and we went into a shop and she was perceptive (fat good it did her) enough to say after 'You were frightened' in a fairly neutral way. I don't think that has changed much at all in 40 years. (It's like they say of jobs though....the first ten years are the worst.) The way I organise myself (for want of a better description), by which I mean maybe the extent to which I accept myself, has.
