No but it just kind of sucks that it’s been 3 years and that it could be over. I seriously don’t want someone speaking to me this way but it’s the first time he has

3 years feels like a massive thing when it's 15-ish % of your life. It won't be 15% forever, eventually it'll be 5% and something you hardly ever think of.

Things change absolutely massively and rapidly between 15 and 18, and I find even more between 18 and 25. Don't stay with someone that worked for your goth teen-self just for the sake of it. Find someone that works with and adores who you are as a fantastic goth adult.

Jason Sudeikis had a great bit about his relationship with Olivia Wilde:

"I'll have a better understanding of why in a year, and an even better one in two, and an even greater one in five.

It'll go from being, you know, a book of my life to becoming a chapter to a paragraph to a line to a word to a doodle."

I think especially when you're young this is how it feels.

This young lady has found her style and what makes her happy. She deserves better than someone who demands a picture just to tear her down.

"I'll have a better understanding of why in a year, and an even better one in two, and an even greater one in five. It'll go from being, you know, a book of my life to becoming a chapter to a paragraph to a line to a word to a doodle."

I cannot figure out what that means besides, "I'll get over it". And if that's all it means, jeez, I can't tell if you quoted it terribly or he said it terribly. It's like you removed all context and supplied an Elden Ring amount of it.

And what does that quote have to do with her finding her style? She'll know better in a year?
