What's the word...

[cheeni]

When you desire madly for something seemingly unattainable until you finally have it in your grasp, and all the world is in awe but all you feel inside is emptiness. What's the word for it? Pyrrhic victory? Winner's curse?

"The grass is greener on the other side because you can't smell the manure."

Make that - "When you desire madly for something until you finally have it in your grasp and all you feel inside is emptiness."

Yeah and let me know what is the word, if you find it. Sounds like "pyrrhic" is the closest.

I am gonna go for the iPhone and I know for a fact that that is how I will feel :(
