“They say that if you really love, you never want any harm to befall your beloved. While this may be true of “normal” love, I here attest that, in unrequited love, the case is quite the opposite. One begins to associate suffering with loving and, therefore, you begin to believe that the former begets the latter. If I can make him suffer, I can make him understand that he loves me.” — Erin Zelinka
