It is like getting a dog, but the dog decided that "someone" else is her owner, not you. And while it is possible to live without this "someone", the dog is frustrated and refuses to go outside. Yet if that "someone" should only ring his bicycle bell, it happily wags its tail and runs to catch "him". And you run after the dog. And, thereby, after "him".
