Why do we like the things that we are prevented from or can't take or make???

i guess, it makes life more exciting and fun.

When you can have something or when it's readily available, we tend to take it for granted because it's always there. Once we can no longer have it, we realize that we will miss it. However, there are usually alternatives...other things that we can have to fill the void so all is not lost.

I don't know why people want what they can't have. I guess they just love the chase bc it makes their lives more interesting? Or perhaps it makes them feel rebellious and/or more grown up? For example, underage drinkers. Cravings and distance also make the heart grow fonder. I kinda despise that saying, though. It just shows that humans take what they already have for granted.
