Reading a fictional story about suicides whilst I'm crashing out, deleting my instagram, practicing emotion regulation skills to de-escalate myself

"I hadn't ever thought that a man could love me in the same way my friends love me; that I could love a man with the same commitment and care with which I love them...

Time and time again, I had created intensity with a man and confused it with intimacy."

ARGHHHHH

Validating how much this woman also loves a man with a strong nose and floppy hair
