You have got everything you need for happy living, but you are never happy: you keep asking for more and more, you get it but soon get blasé about it... your behavior becomes freakish...

How would you describe such behavior?
Or what would you say to a person who behaves that way?
You are just (doing what?)!
or Stop ... ! You have got everything!

Thank you!

Looks like I have failed to deliver the message :-))

It is not about greed. It's more of caprice, whims...

Discontent. My advice to someone who is experiencing this would be to focus your attention and energies outward rather than on yourself. Think about this: If you died tomorrow what would you want other people to say at your eulogy? Get involved in other peoples lives who need help, volunteer and help make the world a better place then when you came here. Trust me you'll find much better satisfaction in life when you do positive things for others. Traveling to a third world country and helping out in the community was a real eye opener for me. I am much more grateful for the life I have because of this experience. This doesn't mean you never do anything for yourself, but that your life has a balanced outlook on what's really important. I wish you success friend.

What strange fetish is this? Your english is extra clever than a million/2 of the people in this board. i think of you talk english only nice, and are seeking to get off in this by some ability. strange!!! ok I take that lower back. English is obviously your 2nd language. The non-indignant thank you to answer your question is that she is committing adultery. the guy is only only a guy in this - in view which you do no longer provide any guidance to describe his marital status.

Neurotic, insatiable, spoiled rotten are a few words that come to mind. This is the type of person who is clueless - they constantly seek material gratification because they are not happy with themselves. They never discover what really makes them happy and whole. They need therapy badly!

Insatiable would be a good adjective, but I don't think there's a verb that covers the act being unsatiable.
How would you describe that in your language (if it's not Enlgish)?

Crying for the moon -- i.e. demanding the impossible and then feeling frustrated because it is so impossible and you don't want to settle for less. The moon, as an added bonus, is associated with lunacy.....

You have everything anyone would ever want in the palm of your hand, yet you still ask for more.

In English - you've been enervated by GREED

"You are inebriated by the exuberance in your insatiable hedonism." That should cover it.
