“The cells, tissues, systems and cavities of the body”chapter is TEARING ME APART. HELLO. BEYOND POETIC REALLY JESUS CHRIST. Does it take a surely deadly illness to have someone write and think of you this way. No because I think of people this way.

“What you risk reveals what you value”

Four pages later — no! I don’t want someone to love me like Narrator does. Infidelity is not a showing of love because you don’t love yourself or respect oTHERS. Fuck you narrator

Do men long for people like women do? And I’m not sure I want someone to long for me the way Narrator does for Louise; it blew up their life and everyone’s life they touch. I don’t want love to come with pain. It’s too destructive. WHAT is love idk mannnn
