Or is that the fiction part, and the rest your true feelings? Interesting that you are married to a man, though your sexuality differs from the mainstream. Who is the rascal, your eating disorder, your rational mind, the world? I’m looking forward to hearing about your Sunday! I hope you’ll have a good day : ) I’m happy to always find the “if” from your stories: ” things could be way worse if”. Or is that the fiction part, and the rest your true feelings?
