      Love Letters

      Mar 7, 2022

      MY BELOVED ANGEL, I am nearly mad about you, as much as one can be mad: I cannot bring together two ideas that you do not interpose yourself between them. I can no longer think of nothing but you. In spite of myself, my imagination carries me to you.

      Beware The Love-bomber

      Dec 1, 2022

      It’s hard to resist the thrill of being love-bombed. I’ve been warned countless times that it’s a potential red flag when someone is so immediately forthcoming with their affection, but I’m too much of a romantic to be so cynical. Or maybe I’m just t
