All she ever wanted was love. All she ever wanted was to belong to someone. She tried, at least in her own understanding, to love this man. She loved him so much that it stopped being love… and became obsession. And I realized something: obsession doesn’t come alone. It carries both the good traits, and the kind that make your own child resent you. Now her husband is tired. Completely drained. And she’s tired too, but in a different way. She left yesterday, saying she’s never coming back. She never had a loving family. Her mother was married three times, and she swore her life would be different. But her story taught me something, Sometimes, when you resist something too hard… you slowly become it
