“Darling, I’ve realised I don’t love you.
If I loved anyone, it would be you. But I love no one.
I’ve come to understand I don’t care about anything except for myself.

The very existence of other people seems doubtful.
I wanted more from life than this.
Let’s have a baby.”

“This is my favorite part of you, your eyelashes when the light hits them like that. This is my favorite part of you, right where your ear meets your jawline. No, this is my favorite part, the little crease under the tip of your nose.
Well, I only like the tip of your nose. If you didn’t have such a great nose-tip, it would be over between us.”
