I once had a guy tell me that no one would ever love me as much as he did, that I wasn’t allowed to get nipple piercings because he liked me better innocent, that he would fix me, and that when I lost my virginity, he needed it to be to him. He told me that if I loved him, I would run away with him, and that despite the fact that we were not dating, nor had we ever, I was not allowed to have a girlfriend- but he was. He was my best friend— the operative word being “was.”
