shared pain
i liked you because i thought we had the same shared pain: divorced parents, siblings who only see one parent, the whole thing
but you glorified the figures in your life
while I used them as introspection
our shared pain became the very thing to repeat the history we came from
arguing in the basement
arguing in my room
where didn’t we argue?
passive aggression
manipulation
who is to blame though?
this was normal for us
because we were raised to think that this is love
