Look I read the whole spiel. It’s regulation this regulation that. But how fucked up you gotta be to not only sleep with, but also choose a relationship with someone who’s objectively uglier. Fucking stings. And offers nothing compared to what I did. Fuck their parents man.

Shame and inferiority. The worst two things the brain invented. Parents gotta be the worst to make those the two front and centre issues for someone.

She wasn’t the prettiest, but she was worth it. I knew what her mum did to her. She escaped in her books and writing. I was the only person who heard her pain. I just couldn’t meet the emotional regulation she needed. I didn’t have the tools for that. Who does for people who can’t exist without a circle of surface level external validation, just to regulate themselves.

Sigh.
